LENS ANATOMY
CLIMATE CONTROL AND ASPHALT
SMOKE GREY: Maximum glare reduction. Won’t distort colors. Excellent for riding in bright/glare conditions. Light transmission: 14% +/- 3%.

BLUE MIRROR (SMOKE GREEN BASE): Absorbs reflections across shining surfaces and diminishes glare. Ideal in bright conditions. Light transmission: 13% +/- 3%.
SILVER FLASH (SMOKE GREY BASE): Provides maximum shade. Excellent for riding in bright/glare conditions. Light transmission: 11% +/- 3%
CLIMATE CONTROL SERIES ONLY
LA™ LIGHT ADJUSTING SMOKE GREY: LA™ lenses lighten and darken based on the amount of UV radiation in the immediate environment. As the sun becomes lower on the horizon (early morning, late afternoon or dusk), the atmosphere filters the UV radiation and lenses transmit more light to the eye. With superior optical clarity, these lenses provide a single solution for people who ride all day and night. Light transmission: 15% +/- 3%.
PPZ™ AMBER GOLD (COPPER BASE): Greatly reduces blue light caused by haze. Enhances contrast and depth perception to allow the rider to differentiate changes in road and trail surfaces. PPZ™ lenses also eliminate visual distortion patterns allowing the rider to read GPS devices, mobile phones, and gas pumps. Light transmission: 14% +/- 3%.
PPZ™ SILVER FLASH (SMOKE GREY BASE): The ultimate day riding lens. Perfect for bright/glare conditions, these lenses provide maximum shade without distorting road hazards such as potholes, oil, ice, and water. PPZ™ lenses also eliminate visual distortion patterns allowing the rider to read GPS devices, mobile phones, and gas pumps. Light transmission: 14% +/- 3%.
PPZ™ SILVER FLASH (COPPER BASE): Boosts depth perception allowing for quicker reaction times and enhances traffic signals, brake lights, and turn signals. PPZ™ lenses also eliminate visual distortion patterns allowing the rider to read GPS devices, mobile phones, and gas pumps. Light transmission: 14% +/- 3%.
PPZ™ BLUE MIRROR (SMOKE GREY BASE): By diminishing glares and enhancing contours around objects, these lenses reduce eye stress allowing for a longer ride. PPZ™ lenses also eliminate visual distortion patterns allowing the rider to read GPS devices, mobile phones, and gas pumps. Best worn during moderate sunlight or in hazy, foggy or snowy conditions. Light transmission: 14% +/- 3%.
LA™ LIGHT ADJUSTING COPPER: LA™ lenses lighten and darken based on the amount of UV radiation in the immediate environment. By enhancing the contrast, riders are given able to differentiate changes in road and trail surfaces and perceive ground level contours. With superior optical clarity, these lenses provide a single eyewear solution for people who ride all day and night. Light transmission: 12% +/- 3%.
ASPHALT SERIES ONLY
CLEAR: Maximum light transmission. See precise color values. Hazy or overcast, dusk/dawn conditions. Light transmission: 91% +/- 3%.
YELLOW: Provide greater clarity in fog, haze and other low-light conditions. Filters out blue light from electronic devices that can cause eye fatigue. Light transmission: 89% +/- 3%.
ORANGE MIRROR (AMBER BASE): Brightens environment in low-light conditions. Enhances contrast and depth perception. Perfect for overcast, hazy and foggy conditions. Light transmission: 16% +/-3%.
COPPER LENS: Boosts depth perception, allowing quicker reaction times while enhancing traffic signals, brake lights, and turn signals. Light transmission: 15.85% +/- 3%.
RED MIRROR (SMOKE GREY BASE): Offers excellent contrast and improved visual depth. Eye strain is reduced while providing a boost in road visibility. Light transmission: 15% +/- 3%.
GREEN MIRROR (SMOKE GREY BASE): Diminishes glare while brightening shadows. Excellent contrast for low-light conditions. Light transmission: 13% +/- 3%.
GOLD MIRROR (BROWN BASE): Boosts depth perception, allowing quicker reaction times while enhancing traffic signals, brake lights, and turn signals. Light transmission: 12.25% +/- 3%.
GOLD MIRROR (SMOKE GREY BASE): Maximum glare reduction. Won’t distort colors. Excellent for riding in bright/glare conditions. Light transmission: 11.35% +/- 3%.
RED MIRROR (BROWN BASE): Creates better road visibility by increasing contrast and depth of field while also reducing eye strain. Light transmission: 10.30% +/- 3%.
BRONZE FLASH (AMBER BASE): Superior visual definition. Increases contrast which enhances ground level contours in most light conditions. Light transmission: 10% +/-3%.
ANSI MARKINGS WX Precedes All ANSI rating marks. Wiley X is the manufacturer. V The lens is variable-tint photochromic (light adjusting) Z87 The eyewear frame and temples or goggle frame passes the ANSI high velocity and high impact test. -2 Select Harley-Davidson frames can be fitted with a prescription lens. Only applies to the Harley-Davidson® Climate Control Series. + The sunglass or goggle frames, temples, and lenses pass the ANSI high velocity and high mass impact tests. S The lens is a filter or shaded lens (not clear).
