WileyX Sunglasses:
Ultimate Eyewear for Motorcycle Adventures

For the past 25 years I've done a lot of motorcycle touring and travel, exploring new destinations and breathing in the freedom that comes with each ride. My journeys have taken me through various terrains and weather conditions, and for a lot of this time, I've relied on WileyX sunglasses to protect my eyes and enhance my riding experience. Over the years, they have protected me from insects travelling straight towards my head at 150 kmph, large and small stones, tree branches, loose grit, hailstones, rain and other things that get thrown at motorbike riders on a regular basis.

When I broke my least pair of Oakley's

Before discovering WileyX about 15 years ago, I used several different brands including Oakley and similar. While they were.. ok, they never really fit properly inside the helmet and I always felt that something could be improved. So when I broke my last pair of Oakley's on a ride through The Alps, my old friend Valle handed me my first pair of Wiley X sunglasses. Ten minutes in, and I knew I could ditch the other brands, and I haven't looked back since. It wasn't until I tried WileyX that I found the perfect blend of durability, comfort, and protection that I was looking for. Took a long time, lots of tryouts, but it was worth the wait.

Built for extreme conditions

WileyX are built to withstand the toughest conditions, making them ideal for motorcycle riders, travellers and explorers. The lenses provide exceptional clarity and are designed to reduce glare, which is crucial when riding under the bright sun, in the snow or through reflective surfaces. The polarized lenses are definitely an upgrade, allowing me to see every detail of the road ahead, whether I'm riding in the city, in deserts or Arctic regions or navigating winding mountain passes in the evening.

One of the main qualities of WileyX shades is their superior fit and comfort. The frames are lightweight yet very robust, ensuring that they stay in place even during the most intense rides. The rubberized nose pads and temple tips provide a secure grip, preventing any slips, even when I'm sweating under the helmet. Plus, the wide range of types and designs means there's a pair to suit every rider's requirements. Do you need to hear more?

Optical safety and reliability

Safety is always in focus when it comes to motorcycle riding, and WileyX doesn't compromise on protection. Their sunglasses meet all the rigorous EU, U.S. and international safety standards, offering impact resistance that gives you peace of mind on the roads and trails. Whether it's dust, debris, insects or unexpected obstacles, I know my eyes are shielded from potential hazards. This level of reliability is something I've come to depend on during long-distance rides and overland expeditions. WileyX has become an essential part of my motorcycle adventures, both on and off the bike.

The past 15 years with WileyX have seen me riding in all kinds of conditions, day and night, and these reliable sunglasses have consistently proven their worth. As I continue to explore new countries on my motorcycle, WileyX continues to protect my vision and enhance my journey.
