PROTECTION Founded on supplying military forces and law enforcement personnel with top-of-the-line ballistic eyewear, Wiley X continues to hold safety as our priority, adopting this approach for building our entire line and building eyewear with shatterproof Selenite™ polycarbonate lenses and super-tough Triloid™ frames to provide the highest levels of protection available. Wiley X is continually innovating to deliver unparalleled protection, clarity, and style in every pair of glasses we build. TECHNOLOGY ANSI HIGH MASS IMPACT TEST Wiley X ANSI Z87.1+ frames and lenses must withstand the impact of a 1.1 lb projectile dropped from a height of 50" to ensure your eyes are protected from unexpected blunt force impacts.
ANSI HIGH VELOCITY IMPACT TEST Wiley X ANSI Z87.1+ frames and lenses must withstand the impact of a .25" diameter steel ball. For spectacles the projectile must be traveling 150fps and for a goggle 250fps.
V0 BALLISTICS Several Wiley X eyewear models are tested to V0 ballistics which consists of a spectacle frame and lens being impacted with a .15 caliber projectile traveling 640-660 fps, or a goggle frame and lens with a .22 caliber projectile traveling 550-560 fps. Wiley X eyewear models that are part of the Authorized Protective Eyewear List (APEL) are tested to the Alpha version of the V0 ballistics standard which consists of a spectacle frame and lens being impacted with a .15 caliber projectile traveling 700-725fps, or a goggle frame and lens with a .22 caliber projectile traveling 580-590fps. Both tests are meant to simulate shrapnel potentially encountered on the battlefield.

ALTERNATIVE FIT Wiley X Alternative Fit styles are designed for people who have high cheekbones and a shallow nose bridge. By widening the nose bridge, the eyewear sits higher on the face to prevent contact with the cheeks.
