While you cannot control your environment or the conditions you work and play in, you can take charge of how you perform in them with the WX BOSS. Bold style meets high-performance features, with sleek but wide temples, a high-wrap frame, and a removable foam gasket (Facial Cavity™ Seal) to block out wind, dust, and annoying peripheral light. With a medium to large overall fit, the WX BOSS rests comfortably close to your face and comes with a T-Peg Elastic Strap to keep them in place during intense activity.
CAPTIVATE™

The CAPTIVATE™ lens technology redefines what you can expect of your sunglasses. With this superior lens technology, we have meticulously engineered a filter for your sunglasses, which filter out harmful light and elevates your visual performance by enhancing colors and contrasts and increasing clarity. With CAPTIVATE™ your color perception is not only redefined, but we have also set a higher bar for what sunglasses can be for you.
Polarized Filter 8™
The polarized filter creates vertical openings for light, meaning that only vertical light waves can reach your eyes, whereas horizontal light is blocked. Horizontal light waves are the glare that is generated when vertical light hits a shiny surface, for instance a wet road, the car windshield, and especially water. The horizontal light appears as a strong glare that jeopardize your vision and makes it difficult for you to navigate. The polarized filter eliminates this glare and helps you stay focused and relaxed all day without experiencing headaches or eye fatigue.
100 % UVA/UVB protection
It is not only the skin that can be harmed by UV-rays, but your sight can also be diminished. If your eyes are exposed to the sun, long and intensive radiation can lead to an infection of your eyes’ conjunctiva or cornea. That is why it is so important to use sunglasses and eyewear with UV-protection. Our lenses all ensure you 100% UVA/UVB protection, assuring you protection from harmful rays that can lead to permanent eye damage.
Anti-Reflective Coating
An anti-reflective coating eliminates the distracting light reflections on the back surface of your lenses, making sure that light does not bounce back into your eyes and distort your vision. Lenses with an anti-reflective coating reduces blur and reflected images on the back surface of the lenses and will not only give you extra comfort and visual clarity, but also ensure optimal conditions for your polarized filter.
Oleophobic Coating
An oleophobic coating is an anti-smudge coating. The application of the coating gives you a pair of lenses with a much smoother surface, which helps you from keeping dust, oil, dirt, and water from sticking to the lenses. Ultimately, this helps in preventing smudging and water spots on your lenses, making them much easier to clean and making it easier for you to maintain a cleaner surface for a longer time.
T-Shell™ Scratch Resistent Coating

All Wiley X lenses are treated with our T-Shell™ scratch resistant coating, which will protect the lenses against damage and extend their life span. With Wiley X you not only get lenses made from the high-quality material, polycarbonate, but also lenses that are coated with this top-of-the line hard coating, which ensure your lenses’ durability.
Shatterproof Selenite™ Polycarbonate lenses
All Wiley X eyewear comes with our shatterproof Selenite™ polycarbonate lenses. This material is super durable and strong, and we use it to ensure that our rigorous testing can be carried out, so you can get lenses that are certified to the toughest optical safety standards.
Triloid™ Nylon Frame

Triloid™ Nylon is the toughest non-metal material available. It not only gives you lightweight comfort, but it also extremely strong. Among other, it is thanks to this highly durable material that WX eyewear can withstand the rigorous safety tests that we certify all our eyewear to. It might have a light and plastic feel, but TriloidTM Nylon is much stronger and of a higher quality.
Facial Cavity™ Seal

With the attached Facial Cavity™ Seal you can control the influence of the outer elements from distorting your vision. The Facial Cavity™ Seal will block out any irritants, including wind, dust, and depris, but it will also block the peripheral light, protecting your eyes and allowing your lenses to perform to their fullest.
Note: The Facial Cavity™ Seal can easily be removed or attached, as needed.
Certifications and standards
ANSI Z87.1+

ANSI Z87.1+ tested means that the frame and lenses meet or exceed specific safety ratings set by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), who has developed a certification system for safety eyewear in the US. As an American brand, we test our eyewear to pass a high velocity impact test and a high mass impact test, as dictated by ANSI.
The high velocity impact test demands that the frame and lenses must withstand the impact of a 6,35 mm steel ball fired at 164,6 km/h, while remaining intact. The high mass impact test demands that the frame and lenses must remain intact while withstanding a 500 grams pointed projectile that is dropped down on the eyewear from a height of 127 cm.
EN.166F
An EN.166F test means that the frame and lens live up to a low energy impact standard. The eyewear must withstand the impact of a 6 mm steel ball at 0,86 grams, which is dropped from 1,3 meters at a speed of 162 km/h. The lens must remain in the intact frame and not shatter for it to pass. This is a huge quality stamp when it comes to our performance sunglasses and protective eyewear, as you are guaranteed the same level of protection and quality, as the soldiers of the world demand.
