Wileyx air rage polarized presciption glasses - Wiley X Airage RX Prescription Sunglasses

Having a small frame face, I have a hard to time finding glasses that fit, let alone safety glasses. After an intensive research I settled on the WileyX AirRage.

I had to inquire directly at Opticsplanet to verify if my prescription complied with the AirRage model. Customer service was stellar and delivery to my place in Canada was very quick.

My AirRage prescription lenses are polarized brown. Their optical clarity is superb and the same can be said about the contrast.

I work in the mining industry and dust protection is very important. The AirRage do a wonderful job at keeping the dust out even in the harshest conditions. If you use the headband you can apply the needed pressure on your face to completely seal the glasses. However, due to the lack of ventilation, they can also fog up if there is a drastic change in temperature; let's say in & out the pickup truck.

I was quite surprised to find out the headband could detach easily if the glasses where removed by pulling the branches upward. I think the locking mechanism could be improved. I then used the provided cord. For my use, it was the perfect combination, keeping a bit of ventilation and keeping nearly all the dust particles out.

Finally, keep in mind the AirRage are SMALL!. I would like them to have a bit more side protection but then WileyX have other models like the Curve that have wider branch and fit smaller face.
Pros: Lens resolution, dust protection, contrast
Cons: Side protection, headband
