I use them all the time for all of my outdoor activities. They are tough and great eye protection.

I have had my pair of Wiley X's for 4 years now, and I can't say enough good things about them. Still have the original gasket that came with them, and it's still in great shape. Wear it every time I'm out and the sun is beating down, it really helps cut down on the condensation build-up on the inside of my lenses when I start sweating. They still look like they're brand new too, without any issues of the polarizing film wearing off of the lenses. I had that issue with the Strike King S11's, which is what got me to finally pull the trigger on an expensive pair of sunglasses. I was using a proper microfiber cloth and cleaner intended for sunglasses, and it still stripped the film off after one season on those S11's.

Im fairly sure some Wiley X was on the approved list for military use. So the polycarbonate ones should protect you from flying lures/weights.

I had some and the only thing that i did not like was that they seemed to fog up more than other sunglasses

Theyre good. Company stands behind the product well. Had a pair of those p17s from the REVO giveaway for years. They finally bit the dust after a hard life of abuse. Dont think you can go wrong. Costas are better still.

They are good glasses. I have 2 pair one in boat and one in truck. They are not Maui's but they also are just a little over 100.00 pair. Good value for your money!

I loved the ones I had, only thing was after years and years the nose piece rubber started to falling apart, probably because I left them in the truck and the heat got to them, but for the price I can't complain

Ive had a pair for years that I switched lenses to prescription and then back to regular after I got lasik. Had them to fish and wear in the oil field as they meet OSHA regulations. They can definitely take a beating. The removable facial seal is nice for going down the lake and for keeping sweat out of your eyes.
Tight lines and God bless.
