Reviews

Unfortunately, I can’t wear the

"Unfortunately, I can’t wear the glasses for more than 30 minutes before I begin to develop an excruciating migraine. First time I have experienced this problem. Wish I hadn’t purchased these glasses as I am not satisfied with the product, price and customer service."

Josh I. (1/5)

The fit is spot on

"The fit is spot on for someone with narrower face. I wish other Wiley models which only have M/L fit had a S/M version. Anyway, the clarity and color are incredible. Construction is solid. I am happy with the sunglasses I've purchased from Wiley."

Ku-Yuen H. (5/5)

They’re phenomenal. The lenses are

"They’re phenomenal. The lenses are *incredible* and way beyond what I was expecting. My only complaint is that the frames are slightly different than what you see online. The frames, IRL are a little more vibrant, or light than what I thought I was getting, judging from the marketing photos. I would have preferred a consistently gray or dark gray frame. Probably a misunderstanding on my end, but I would have went with a different model if I knew before purchase how they would look in real light."

Main complain is the frames…. they

"Main complain is the frames…. they are clear…the photo looks absolutely nothing like g like the frames you get. Called to ask what I could do as far as swapping them out and was given no option to swap. Just return, so guess I’m stuck!"

Eric S. (2/5)

Very impressed with the quality

"Very impressed with the quality of these glasses. I’ve worn costas and Oakley’s for years and these will definitely last me longer. The polarized lense quality is also amongst the best that I’ve worn!"

Jake S. (5/5)

I ordered the axes which

"I ordered the axes which I thought that was really going to like however I did not First off the ad picture on the website didn’t quite display them right I was under the impression they were a solid Matte grey but they turned out clear which is not what I wanted but also they didn’t quite fit my head the best which my comparison is costas because that’s what I’ve always worn. then the second thing that isn’t a big deal but an inconvenience was that when I went to send them back I had to pay for the shipping label which kinda sucks. But other than that the customer service was awesome I didn’t have any issues there. They were quick and easy to understand. Thank you"

Rubber not to good

"Rubber is breaking after 2 weeks of use"

Jose a. (2/5)

This brand advertises how capable

"This brand advertises how capable and rugged their frames and lenses are but there are anything but that. I wore mine for a month and they were babied. Stayed inside the case or in a sleeve constantly. They fell off of my head prior to being able to be adjusted at an optometrist to get the arms to hug my head better. This single fall incurred a scratch in the middle of a prescription lens and support will not contact me back. Save your $500 and go somewhere that will take you seriously. On top of that, despite giving them my 1 week old prescription and information they sent me sunglasses that my eyes cannot focus with and actively impede my vision. Vision quality and build quality are beyond subpar. In the photo the scratch is hard to capture, but it is best seen against the light. It is centered in my vision. The side shields are only able to be applied once before becoming permanent. And the anti-fog that I ordered came in a bottle for me to apply. Not even pre-applied or dictated that it has been. I got charged extra to do more work on my glasses."

Andrew G. (1/5)

Very good glasses, this is

"Very good glasses, this is my second pair I bent over and had my other pair on my shirt collar and they fell in the lake in a rain storm off of my boat at the boat ramp."

Les O. (4/5)

The glasses has a heft

"The glasses has a heft on them which I like. It feels premium too. But the best thing is how everything is clearer everytime i wear it ."
