The glasses are incomplete, missing the strap. Appearance is ok, lenses as described, the frame is quite light. You have to struggle a bit to change the lenses, but it's not a problem. I recommend the purchase. Only four stars for the missing strap.
Wiley X Valor 2.5 Tactical Glasses - Polarized Grey/Matte Black
Tactical eyewear featuring polarized filter lenses that comply with ballistic standards MIL-PRF-32432A, ANSI Z87.1, and EN.166S. Supplied accessories include a hard shell case with a zip closure, neck strap, and microfiber cleaning cloth.
Wiley X ranks among the top providers of eye protection for the United States military, athletes, and outdoor adventure enthusiasts.
Selenite polycarbonate lenses with T-Shell coating, polarizing filter
Equipped with break-resistant and interchangeable Selenite polycarbonate lenses, the model ensures optimal durability and features 15% light transmission. A specialized anti-reflective coating along with a polarizing filter minimizes glare, optimizing visual comfort in various conditions. The advanced hydrophobic coating effectively repels moisture, and the hard T-Shell coating delivers superior scratch resistance.
Offering 100% safeguarding from harmful UVA and UVB radiation, the glasses provide complete ultraviolet protection.
For users with visual impairments, compatibility with an RX insert (not included) accommodates the use of corrective lenses.
Non-slip temples, adjustable nose pad, and Triloid frames
Constructed from lightweight and durable Triloid, the frames provide a secure fit while maintaining comfort even when wearing hearing protection or night vision equipment. Adjustable nose pads and non-slip temples improve grip and adapt to the contours of the face for enhanced stability.
Standards and certifications
- MIL-PRF-32432A: In accordance with this military standard, both the frame and lenses are engineered to endure impacts from projectiles or fragments with a 3.8 mm diameter, traveling at velocities between 700 and 725 km/h.
- ANSI Z87.1 - Specifies the impact resistance requirements for frames and lenses. Testing includes exposure to both a high-mass steel object (High Mass) and a high-velocity steel ball (High Velocity), ensuring protection against standard mechanical risks.
- EN.166S - Complies with European criteria for safeguarding against impacts from medium energy projectiles. The mechanical strength rating S confirms, as outlined by the standard, that the frame and lenses possess increased resistance to impact from a steel ball measuring 22 mm in diameter and weighing 43 g, at a speed of approximately 5.1 m/s (18.36 km/h).

Selenite visors are made of unbreakable polycarbonate, which provides high visual clarity and UV protection.
T-Shell is a coating on Wiley X glasses that resists scratches, protects lenses from damage and extends their life.
Frames made of Triloid nylon provide lightweight and highly comfortable glasses. Triloid features optimal hardness and is highly resistant to impacts and falls.
Z87.1 standard developed by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) for the durability of eye protectors. The standard includes two types of tests (3 tests) for the impact resistance of the lens and the stability of its seating in the frame: resistance to High Mass and High Velocity objects.
EN166B is the European standard for protection against the impact of accelerated objects (Medium Energy Impact). Class S mechanical strength means that, according to the standard, the frame and visors of the glasses have an increased resistance to the impact of a steel BBs with a diameter of 22 mm and a weight of 43 g at an approximate speed of 5.1 m/s.
