WILEY X Protective glasses TREK Captivate - polarized grey lenses / black frame

Product detailed description

The modern rectangular silhouette of the sunglasses ensures a spectacular and stylish look, and thanks to the rubberized nose pads, they stay in place all day, despite your activities. Additionally, they come with removable side shields that can be easily added or removed. Whether you're trekking, on a trip, or walking around the city, you'll look stylish with WX TREK.

LENSES: CAPTIVATE™ Polarized- Smoke Grey

The lenses balance the visible light spectrum to allow light to enter the eye more evenly. They keep most colors neutral while enhancing green shades; reduce glare from reflective surfaces; contrast and colors in the outdoor environment are enhanced.

Modern CAPTIVATE technologies further refine vision sharpness and color perception. The human eye is not able to distinguish the entire color spectrum. Individual colors blend, and these color transitions (especially between blue, green, and red) cause problems with vision sharpness. CAPTIVATE lenses can separate these transitions, thus increasing contrast and detail sharpness.

TECHNOLOGIES

ANSI HIGH VELOCITY IMPACT TEST - Bullet resistance test
Glasses certified according to the ANSI HIGH VELOCITY IMPACT standard must withstand the impact of a 6.35 mm diameter steel ball shot at a speed of 164.6 km/h. The unbreakable lens must remain firmly seated in the frame of the glasses, and the frame must remain undamaged.

HARD COATING
Scratch protection for lenses thanks to a strong and durable layer.

EN. 166F
Glasses certified according to the EN.166f standard must withstand the impact of a 22 mm diameter steel ball weighing 43 g dropped from a height of 1.3 m and impacting at a speed of 18 km/h. The unbreakable lens must remain firmly seated in the frame of the glasses, and the frame must remain undamaged.

EIGHT-LAYER LENSES
For maximum eye protection and to maintain perfect sharpness and clarity of vision, Wiley X lenses are composed of a total of eight protective layers.
» FILTER 8 - Reflections of sunlight from the water surface, as well as from other shiny surfaces (such as snow or glass), significantly increase eye fatigue, reduce visual acuity, and distort vision. Therefore, one of the layers of Wiley X lenses is a polarizing filter - Filter 8 ™. It prevents reflected rays, whose waves move in the horizontal plane, from reaching the eyes. These are the ones that cause unpleasant glare. At the same time, the FILTER 8 ™ layer prevents the passage of all harmful UV radiation, which can otherwise cause pathological changes to the retina.

» SLICK - Both outer layers of Wiley X lenses are made of a hydrophobic blend. This means they actively repel water and ice. Thanks to special nanotechnology, the molecules of the hydrophobic layer are non-polar and do not bond with water molecules. Water molecules are thus forced to bond with each other. Instead of a wet coating and stains on the glasses, larger water droplets form, which quickly run down the surface of the lenses and do not distort visual acuity. Hydrophobic surfaces are also anti-static, meaning they repel dust and other impurities. Thanks to this, the lenses can be easily cleaned with a soft microfiber cloth, which is included with every pair of Wiley X glasses.

» T-SHELL - Two extra hardened layers in the form of a flexible film protect the lenses against scratches, surface cracks, or breakage. They increase the protective capability of Wiley X glasses, their lifespan, and visual acuity.

» SELENITE - The two main protective layers of Wiley X lenses are made of polycarbonate, whose structure is formed by carbon and phenol atoms. These give the glasses up to ten times higher impact resistance than regular glass lenses. The advantage is also their low weight. The reliability and safety of Wiley X lenses are tested and certified by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). Despite extreme strength, these lenses do not distort the image or reduce optical precision at all angles.

» VIOLET 4 - When light passes through the lens of the glasses, part of the light is reflected back from both the front and back sides of the lens, causing unpleasant flashes that worsen vision. The anti-reflective layer Violet 4 ™ is designed to limit or completely eliminate these reflections. The layer can also eliminate light glare, which tires and strains the eyes. This function is appreciated, for example, by drivers who can avoid glare from the sun or headlights of oncoming vehicles with Wiley X glasses.

OLEOPHOBIC COATING
Wiley X uses a patented oleophobic coating on all Captivate lenses to create a smoother lens surface that helps prevent the adhesion of dust, dirt, oil, snow, and water. This helps prevent smudging and water spots, making the lenses much easier to clean.
