\"It\u2019s<\/p>\n

Wiley X continues to leave its mark on the global fishing industry as it claims the coveted Best New Eyewear Award at EFTTEX for the second year running<\/strong><\/p>\n

Innovative eyewear brand Wiley X made it two out of two in the Best New Product Awards at European fishing tackle trade show EFTTEX, when it picked up Best New Eyewear prize at the 2018 edition in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. It was only the second time in the company\u2019s history that it has entered the awards, and its brand-new Active style WX Nash polarized sunglasses, featuring the new Kryptek\u00ae Altitude\u2122 camouflage came out on top. Wiley X beat off competition from sunglasses and eyewear brands around the world to win the award, as voted for by a panel of highly knowledgeable judges at the show. Last year Wiley X won the same award with the very popular WX Boss Climate Control sunglass, featuring new Kryptek\u00ae Highlander\u00ae camouflage.<\/p>\n

Wiley X EMEA Vice President and Outdoor Director, Thomas W\u00e6ver, was understandably delighted with the second award. He said: \u201cOn behalf of Wiley X I\u2019m both thrilled and honoured that the WX Nash style in Kryptek\u00ae won this prestigious category at the EFTTEX show in Holland. The category was contested by some of the best sunglasses brands in the world, so winning the Best New Product award for the second straight year is strong proof that \u2018Absolute. Premium. Protection.\u2019 isn\u2019t just a tagline. It is a mantra that we believe in, strive for, and deliver every single day.<\/p>\n

\"\u201cAlready,<\/p>\n

\u201cAlready, we are looking forward to returning to EFTTEX in 2019 in Brussels, Belgium. We will do our utmost to deliver yet another ground-breaking product, hoping to win for a third time. Winning twice in a row is a statement from the trade that it believes in our product as well as our company DNA. Knowing what we have in the pipeline for 2019 and beoynd, I feel comfortable that we stand a fair chance. I would like to thank everyone who voted for Wiley X \u2013 thank you for your trust in us and I promise we will not let you down in 2019.\u201d<\/p>\n
