"I've been wearing Costa's for better part of 20 years now. I just broke another pair and of course they don't make my favorite frames anymore (or parts). Decided to use my military discount and try out the Founders. Couldn't be happy with my purchase! I work outside 50+ hrs a week in direct sun and Wiley X is setting the new standard!"
"They fit nicely but I do wish they were slightly bigger frames. Nice and lightweight glasses that feel durable but time will tell. Haven’t shot in lighting that they were needed yet but I’m sure they’ll work when I do. Even only having them a few weeks I still would recommend them because they are pretty solid so far."
"I just received my shades today and as soon as I opened the package I was not disappointed! From the fit to the overall look of the glasses I was impressed! I love my new shades and will be getting another pair soon !"
"The frame is very comfortable. No need to add nose pads or anything. The frame is lightweight and doesn't bother my nose over hours of wearing them. The lenses have proved to not scratch easily. Best shades I've had in over a decade."
"Picked up a pair of the blue lens with crystal grey frames exclusively for fishing. The blue lens offers great sight on open water especially with bright light conditions. However, I do want to point out that the crystal grey frames were a little counter intuitive. As with transparent frames that I've had in the past, the sunlight creates a glare through the frame which is pretty bothersome as it shines directly into your eyeballs. The blue lens founders do not come with any other frame, so a custom built a pair is a must if you don't want to have a glare through the frames. The nose bridge sits perfectly on my face, and I did not have any discomfort. The rubber injected pieces are in all the right places. All in all, these shades are amazing. Getting the crystal frames and then complaining about it is 100% my fault so I give 5 stars. The next pair I purchase will definitely be a matte black frame or equivalent."
"These sunglasses are a perfect blend of style and functionality. The fit is exceptional, making them comfortable enough for all-day wear. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable, everyday eyewear option. Polarization is great when fishing, and I can tell Wiley used the best material."
"I love these sunglasses. I got the Founders model and it is exactly what i need for running commercial drone operations in the field. I am able to see the the controller screen clearly with no glare that's present with a polarized lens."
"It takes a lot for me to review something. So I'll start with the buying process. The web site was easy to navigate and understand. I chose the captivate tungsten mirror lenses and I have to say I really like them. The vision is nice and clear and even without polarized lenses they still calm down glare off of other cars while driving. I haven't used them at the rangs yet but I will soon. Id recommend them 100%"
"I like these Founders edition a lot. I’ve always had a hard time finding a good pair of sunglasses that fit. So far, these are finally working out for me."
"I ordered these because I thought it would be easy to transition them from daily wear to safety glasses for work. The side shields click in and need a tiny little tool to remove them. They don’t just slide in and out. If you lose this tiny little tool that fits on your fingertip you’re SOL. Oh well I guess they will just stay as permanent safety glasses."
