Reviews

Concern Regarding WX Founder Quality

"I am writing to express my disappointment with my recent purchase of the WX Founder. I have been a loyal fan of Wiley X for years — I currently own two pairs of your sunglasses, one of which is also the Founder model. Because of my positive experience, I decided to buy another pair of the same model to use with my prescription lenses. Unfortunately, this version of the Founder has not met my expectations for daily use. The plastic nose protector and the temple covers have detached after a short period of wear. I even had to adapt a temporary plastic piece to the temples to prevent discomfort. This issue has made the glasses unsuitable for everyday use, which is disappointing given the brand’s reputation for durability and comfort."

They came with a couple

"They came with a couple scratches on the left lense. I reached out about it, but never heard back. I dont notice the scratches when i'm wearing them, so i dont really care. Dont really have the time to go full karen about it, but i'll probably go with a different brand next time. I will say the rated eye protection is a very nice selling point, tho. They're still pretty nice glasses."

Excellent duty glasses

"These are my favorite every day and on-duty Sun glasses. I bought this product about a year ago. They’re comfortable, durable and the lenses are easy to clean. I appreciate the quality of this product and I will likely buy another pair. The only pitfall to these glasses are the nose pieces. They’re made of rubber and are not replaceable. One of mine tore off while cleaning the glasses and this issue is not covered by warranty. Just one thing to be considered. Glued it back in place but hopefully these will be replaceable in the future. Overall, exceptional glasses."

Great company

"Had the glasses for a year now, they are great glasses for safety, shooting, fishing, and just all around sunglasses. Also, the reason I came to write a review is the rubber nose cushion came off and I sent a warranty to Wiley x and they just didn’t send the nose guard they sent me the hole frame in less then a week. I am now going to be a lifetime customer great company."

— Willie W. (5/5)

Glasses are pretty decent. Lenses

"Glasses are pretty decent. Lenses have a small blurry spot in them( Both pairs). Kind of funny that AFTER I order 2 pairs your company bombards me with sales adds. Should have offered that from the beginning. Oakley did, probably send them more business."

— Matthew B. (4/5)

Great sunglasses! They are very

"Great sunglasses! They are very comfortable and light weight. I own different brands such as Maui Jim, Costa, Shady Rays and so on. So far, these are more comfortable and the polarized lenses are the same quality if not better. The shatterproof lenses also give me a peace of mind when I’m doing things outside like hunting, hiking and yard work."

— Matt W. (5/5)

I like the glasses but

"I like the glasses but definitely have a couple of disappointments. One big thing is that I asked the folks at Wiley X where they are made, and they told me that they are made in USA. Mine are made in Taiwan. They also don’t get as dark as I would like. They seem to not stay dark unless I’m staring directly at the sun. They were extremely expensive too which is a bummer. They are prescription though and transitional lenses so I understand they are going to be more. Other than that, I like them."

— Robert W. (3/5)

Unable to permanently install tabs

"Unable to permanently install tabs for the side shields Bent one arm trying to put on the leash cord w/temple grips I will wear the glasses but very disappointed with the 2 features important to me."

— Bill C. (1/5)

"the best glasses to shoot USPSA that ive ever had. I feel protected, and I see clearly, and look good too. love these things. the search is over."

— nicholas s. (5/5)

"Excellent quality sunglasses. Lightweight, fit well and the lens does a great job of blocking glare. Would recommend these to anyone looking for a good pair of sunglasses that won’t break the bank."
