WILEY X Founder CAPTIVATE Polarized Black Mirror Grey / Matte Back Frame polarized sunglasses

Wiley X Founder Black Mirror: high-performance polarized fishing sunglasses

The Wiley X Founder CAPTIVATE Polarized Black Mirror sunglasses combine premium optical quality, enhanced protection, and comfort. Especially suited to outdoor activities, they provide excellent visibility in bright conditions, including saltwater fishing and boating.

Equipped with CAPTIVATE Black Mirror polarized lenses, they effectively reduce reflections on the water while preserving natural color perception. Their durable frame and removable side shields also provide added protection in demanding environments.

CAPTIVATE Polarized Black Mirror lenses for natural, precise vision

The Wiley X Founder sunglasses feature CAPTIVATE lens technology, developed to improve visual clarity, enhance contrast, and maintain excellent color perception.

The Black Mirror lenses have a gray base that maintains a particularly natural view of your surroundings. They balance the light spectrum for comfortable, true-to-life vision without excessively altering colors.

The Filter 8 polarized filter eliminates distracting glare caused by sunlight reflecting off the water. This technology makes it easier to see the surface, submerged structures, and changes in light.

With light transmission of just 13%, these lenses are particularly well suited to bright, sunny days.

Enhanced eye protection against impacts

The Wiley X Founder Black Mirror sunglasses have Selenite polycarbonate lenses designed to offer excellent impact resistance.

They meet ANSI Z87.1+ and EN.166F protection standards, providing a higher level of safety than conventional sunglasses.

The included removable side shields provide additional eye coverage and help reduce risks from flying debris and side impacts.

This design is especially useful for anglers using lures with hooks, particularly when handling and casting them.

Lens coatings for optimal durability

The Wiley X Founder lenses have several specialized coatings designed to improve their durability and comfort.

• Anti-reflective coating, to limit distracting reflections and improve visual clarity.
• Oleophobic coating, to reduce oily smudges and make cleaning easier.
• T-Shell coating, to increase lens scratch resistance.
• Full UV protection, filtering 100% of UVA and UVB rays.

CAPTIVATE lenses also protect against some high-energy blue light, contributing to visual comfort during prolonged exposure.

A durable, comfortable frame for long sessions

The Wiley X Founder frame is made from Triloid nylon, a material that combines light weight, strength, and durability.

Its matte black finish offers an understated, versatile look suited to both fishing and everyday activities.

Rubberized temples and nose pads provide a secure, comfortable fit, even with repeated movement.

Their slightly wraparound shape helps protect the eyes while maintaining a comfortable field of view.

Ideal sunglasses for saltwater fishing and water sports

Thanks to their polarized lenses and excellent light management, the Wiley X Founder Black Mirror sunglasses are particularly well suited to fishing in intense sunlight.

They are well suited to sea bass fishing, boating, offshore fishing, and other techniques that require extended observation of the water’s surface.

By filtering reflections, they reduce glare and improve visual comfort, especially during long days on the water.
