Changing-light configuration
Interchangeable Clear, Grey and Light Rust lenses allow the same frame to be adapted for substantially different conditions.
The Wiley X Valor three-lens set combines Clear, Grey and Light Rust lenses with a lightweight Matte Black high-wrap frame. The interchangeable configuration covers bright, untinted reduced-light and contrast-enhancing conditions, while the complete eyewear has been assessed against a defined American military fragment-impact requirement.
Product description
The WX Valor provides three interchangeable lenses with distinct roles. Grey reduces brightness and glare in strong sunlight, Clear provides high light transmission without adding a tint, and Light Rust increases contrast in medium- to low-light conditions.
The lightweight Triloid™ Nylon frame has a high-wrap Base Curve 8 profile that provides a close-fitting eyewear shape. Together with the broad lighting range and defined fragment-impact testing, this makes the set particularly relevant to hunting, shooting and tactical use.
Key features
High-wrap profile
The Base Curve 8 frame provides a close-fitting eyewear shape.
Lightweight construction
Triloid™ Nylon provides a durable, non-metal frame with low overall weight.
Lens protection
All three lenses provide 100% UVA and UVB protection and have a scratch-resistant T-Shell™ coating.
Defined fragment-impact testing
The complete frame-and-lens system has been assessed against MIL-PRF-32432A.
Recommended use
The WX Valor three-lens set is suited to hunting, shooting and tactical activities extending across changing daylight or mixed indoor and outdoor environments. Its high-wrap profile and defined fragment-impact testing are also relevant to defence, law-enforcement, airsoft and hardball use.
Fit & comfort
Designed to adjust, built to stay secure
The high-wrap Base Curve 8 frame is made from lightweight, durable Triloid™ Nylon. Its Matte Black finish gives it a subdued, non-glossy appearance.

Lens details
Clear
89% light transmissionThe Clear lens allows a high proportion of available light through without adding a tint, helping colours retain a natural appearance. It is intended for indoor use and reduced-light conditions such as dawn, dusk, haze and overcast weather.
Grey
15% light transmissionThe Grey lens reduces intense glare and brightness while keeping colours close to their natural appearance. It is intended for strong sunlight and other bright outdoor conditions.
Light Rust
52% light transmissionThe Light Rust lens filters blue light to help reduce glare and haze while increasing contrast. It is intended for medium- to low-light conditions where distinguishing details and differences between objects may otherwise be more difficult.
All three lenses are made from strong, durable Selenite™ polycarbonate and provide 100% UVA and UVB protection. Their 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, MIL-PRF-32432A, EN.166S.
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.
MIL-PRF-32432A
Assesses the complete frame-and-lens system against a defined American military high-speed fragment-impact requirement. Test velocities vary according to the applicable eyewear category.
EN.166S
Assesses the complete eyewear using a defined steel-ball impact test. The lenses must remain in the frame without shattering, and the frame must remain intact under the specified conditions.
