Due to its intended use and mass production with an emphasis on low cost, military eyewear is said to be rugged, lacking in finesse and cheap, but anyone who sees WX SAINT will have to change their mind. The beautiful styling that looks delicate conceals the performance of military eyewear that complies with the military specification MIL-PRF-32432 (GL) standard. Conventional military eyewear uses extremely thick lenses with a minimum lens thickness of 2.2 mm or more for full-rim frames and 2.4 mm or more for half-rim frames to comply with military specifications, which results in poor optical performance due to distortion of vision caused by prisms and a major disadvantage due to the increased weight of the eyewear itself. WX SAINT achieves incredible performance by keeping the lens thickness to 2.0 mm and clearing military specifications with a lightweight half-rim frame thanks to its high-performance optical SELENITE lens.
WX SAINT ALTERNATIVE is a model based on the standard size WX SAINT, with a wider frame width designed to fit the face of Japanese people better. Naturally, it is compliant with military specifications MIL-PRF-32432 and is ANSI Z87.1 (Z87+) certified.
WX SAINT is a Black Ops model. The matte black frame features a stealth black WX (logo) badge for stealth. The temple lines, which change appearance depending on how the light hits them, are so beautiful that you would never think they were military equipment, and they harmonize with the injected rubber grip.
Usually, military eyewear, which is mass-produced and focuses on low cost, is made of bare plastic and is cheap, but WX SAINT is made with attention to detail even in the inside details that only the owner can see. The beautiful flowing temple line is a genuine military eyewear that meets the MIL-PRF-32432 (GL) standard. The nose and temples are designed with injected rubber grips to prevent slipping.
