Optional side barrier
Removable shields cover part of the open area beside the lenses during tasks involving potential lateral exposure.
The Wiley X Bravo is designed for customers who need bright-light sunglasses that can add a physical barrier beside the lenses for work-related tasks. It combines removable side shields with a 14% light-transmission CAPTIVATE™ Tungsten Mirror lens and a lightweight Gloss Crystal Tan/Matte Black full-frame design.
Product description
The removable side shields cover part of the open area beside the lenses, reducing the gap between the eyewear and the sides of the wearer’s face. This makes the Bravo more relevant than conventional sunglasses for worksite tasks where the sides of the eyes may otherwise remain more exposed.
The CAPTIVATE™ Tungsten Mirror lens increases contrast and helps colours and visual details appear easier to distinguish. Its Grey base keeps colours close to their natural appearance, while 14% light transmission suits intense sunlight and other bright daytime conditions.
The side shields can be removed when the additional barrier is unnecessary.
Key features
Bright-day lens
Offers 14% light transmission for intense sunlight and other bright daytime conditions.
CAPTIVATE™ technology
Selected wavelength filtering increases contrast and helps colours and visual details appear more distinct.
Lightweight full frame
Durable Triloid™ Nylon keeps the full-frame construction relatively light.
UV filtration and coatings
Provides 100% UVA and UVB protection with anti-reflective, oleophobic and scratch-resistant treatments.
Defined impact testing
The complete eyewear has been assessed against ANSI Z87.1.
Recommended use
The WX Bravo is particularly relevant when worksite activities make an additional physical barrier beside the lenses useful. The removable design also allows the same frame to be used as everyday sunglasses when that barrier is not required.
The Tungsten Mirror lens supports daytime driving and general outdoor activities in strong sunlight.
Fit & comfort
Designed to adjust, built to stay secure
The full-frame design is made from lightweight, durable Triloid™ Nylon. Its Gloss Crystal Tan/Matte Black finish combines translucent tan elements with non-glossy black details.

The removable side shields reduce the open area beside the lenses but do not create a completely enclosed frame. Their physical barrier should not be treated as a guarantee against every lateral hazard. Tested impact performance remains limited to the complete-eyewear assessments described under Safety standards.
Lens details
CAPTIVATE™ Tungsten Mirror
14% light transmissionThe CAPTIVATE™ lens manages selected wavelengths by separating overlapping blue, green and red light. This increases contrast and helps colours and visual differences appear more distinct, while the Grey base keeps colours close to their natural appearance. The lens is intended for intense sunlight and other bright daytime conditions. It also reduces scattered short-wavelength blue light associated with haze and filters ultraviolet and blue light at wavelengths up to 430 nm.
The lens is made from strong, durable Selenite™ polycarbonate and provides 100% UVA and UVB protection.
Anti-reflective coating: Reduces distracting reflections from the back surface of the lens.
Oleophobic coating: Helps reduce smudges and makes dirt, oil and moisture easier to remove.
T-Shell™ coating: Helps resist scratches and limit surface damage, although scratch-resistant does not mean scratch-proof.
Protection backed by defined testing
This configuration is assessed against ANSI Z87.1, ISO 12312-1.
ANSI Z87.1
Assesses the complete eyewear against defined high-velocity and high-mass impact tests. These include a fast-moving 6.35 mm steel ball and a 500 g pointed falling projectile; the frame and lenses must remain intact during testing.
ISO 12312-1
Assesses sunglasses intended for normal wear and driving against defined optical, classification and user-information requirements.
