WILEY X Founder CAPTIVATE Polarized Green Mirror Grey / Gloss Cristak Grey Frame polarized sunglasses

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

The Wiley X Founder CAPTIVATE Polarized Blue Mirror sunglasses are premium eyewear particularly suited to anglers seeking excellent vision and enhanced eye protection. Equipped with CAPTIVATE Blue Mirror polarized lenses, they effectively reduce reflections on the water, improve contrast, and offer comfortable vision in bright sunlight.

Their Triloid nylon frame and removable side shields offer an excellent balance of strength, light weight, and protection. Particularly well suited to saltwater fishing and water sports, they help maintain clear vision during long days on the water.

CAPTIVATE Polarized Blue Mirror lenses for enhanced vision at sea

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

With a gray base, the Blue Mirror lenses preserve natural perception of most colors while enhancing shades of green. They balance the visible light spectrum for consistent, comfortable vision.

The Filter 8 polarized filter reduces distracting glare caused by sunlight reflecting off the water, making it easier to see the surface and areas where fish are feeding.

With light transmission of just 11%, these lenses are particularly well suited to bright sunlight, including offshore fishing.

Enhanced eye protection against impacts

The Wiley X Founder sunglasses have Selenite polycarbonate lenses designed for high impact resistance.

They meet ANSI Z87.1+ and EN.166F protection standards, providing eye protection suited to demanding activities.

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

This design is especially valuable for anglers using lures with hooks, particularly while casting, handling lures, and fighting fish.

Lens coatings for optimal comfort and durability

The Wiley X Founder Blue Mirror 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 technology also helps reduce exposure to some high-energy blue light, including light reflected off the water.

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.

The Gloss Crystal Grey finish, a glossy crystal gray, gives the frame a modern, distinctive look.

Rubberized temples and nose pads provide a secure fit and help prevent slipping, even with repeated movement.

Their slightly wraparound shape, with a base-6 curve, offers good eye protection while maintaining a comfortable field of view.

Designed for medium to large faces, they are well suited to long fishing sessions and outdoor activities.

Ideal sunglasses for offshore fishing and water sports

Thanks to their polarization and excellent light management, the Wiley X Founder Blue Mirror sunglasses are particularly well suited to sun-drenched marine environments.

They are an excellent choice for tuna fishing, boating, sea bass fishing, and a range of offshore fishing techniques.

Their lenses help reduce glare from reflections on the water, improving visual comfort during long periods of watching the surface.
