Protection, without the guesswork
Wiley X designs start with impact protection and field usability, not fashion first. Many models are tested to ANSI Z87.1 for occupational eye protection, and certain tactical lines undergo additional ballistic impact testing to relevant MIL-PRF standards. Exact certifications vary by model; we list them clearly on each product page.
