Wiley X WX Valor

I purchased these because they are literally the only APEL frames available that can be fitted with prescription lenses. I have been wearing the glasses for about two weeks now and I wear them as my everyday, all day glasses. The frames are matte black and the lenses are progressive prescription with extra-active transition, anti-glare, anti-scratch and anti-fog. I will start with the good. The frames look very nice and seem to be very durable. The lenses are extremely clear and the transition from light to dark is great. The distance correction in the lenses seem to be about the same as other glasses I have used with the same prescription. The top outer portion of the lenses have Wiley X scribed very small into the lens which looks very nice. Now for the bad. The shape of the frames are not good for active wear because the top of the lenses touch your brow and become saturated in sweat causing severely decreased visibility. This problem could be easily fixed with minor changes in the shape of the frame. The pads that sit across the bridge of your nose have very little cushioning and the placement of the pads do not work well with the placement of the top of the lenses/brow area. With some minor changes and maybe changeable nose pads this could be a great frame. I have used most of the APEL eye wear available and these are one of the most un-ergonomic shaped frames I have used. The lenses are extremely thick and heavy. Much heavier than other lenses I have with same prescription and material. Like I said earlier in this review the distance(top portion of the lenses} work like others I have used. But, the reading part(bottom portion of the lenses) do not work well at all. I have to constantly strain to read things that I can easily read using other glasses with the same prescription. The frames irritated my temples severely and I had to install pads around the frames that did provide some comfort and relief.

Bought these for work. they are excellent glasses.

Great sunglasses! Difficult prescription done perfectly. Like curved lenses very much. Will be back to Frames Direct.

The glasses feel great, the are exactly what I need for what I do and where I work.

I ordered the ones with polarized and non-glare prescription sunglasses. Took about two weeks to get it but it was worth the wait. When I tried them on it was a perfect fit and the prescription was correct and with the polarized and non-glare everything was clear as a bell. Definitely worth the money. I highly recommend this product and this company.
