About WAYV

I love the water. Whether on a jet ski, a wakeboard, or simply on a boat – I love being outside where wind, waves, and speed collide.

What always bothered me was the right pair of glasses. They either looked like insect repellent—huge, clunky, and lacked style—or they didn't fit properly and flew off at the first wave.

That's exactly why I created WAYV.

I wanted glasses that looked sporty , were durable , worked , and at the same time didn't look like a factory-made protective mask . This is how the WAYV-X1 was born – a hybrid pair of glasses that fit, protect, and simply look good.

I ship each pair of glasses personally from Germany , stand 100% behind the product and will continue to improve and develop WAYV with each batch.

Whether you're on a jet ski, kitesurfing, chilling on a boat, or just like to go fast, WAYV gives you clear vision, secure grip, and a little extra style.

Tested quality & protective functions

The WAYV-X1 meets the requirements of Category 2 according to the European standard and bears the CE mark. This means:

  • 100% UV protection (UV400) – reliably protects against sun rays and reflections on the water
  • Anti-glare and contrast enhancement – ideal for sports activities in bright light
  • Wind and splash protection thanks to the optional foam inlay
  • Interchangeable lenses – also available with polarized filter
  • Lightweight, impact-resistant polycarbonate lenses

By the way: The WAYV-X1 not only cuts a fine figure on the water – it also offers a secure fit and reliable wind protection when skiing thanks to the foam inlay and elastic band.

Notice

The WAYV-X1 is designed for leisure and sports use. It is not approved safety goggles according to DIN EN 166 and does not offer certified occupational safety. Please do not use it in industrial or safety-relevant environments.

About me

Hi, I'm Nils – and when I'm not busy tinkering with new ideas, I'm out somewhere on the water. Whether jet skiing, wakeboarding, or just soaking up the sun: water sports are more than just a hobby for me.

What always bothered me? There simply weren't any sports glasses that looked cool, were functional, and didn't cost a fortune. Either the design was disappointing or the prices were outrageous. So I decided to take matters into my own hands – and that's how WAYV was born.

With WAYV, I want to offer glasses that are not only stylish and comfortable to wear, but also exactly what you experience outdoors: sun, water, action.

Design meets function – and at a fair price. Just the way I would wear them myself.
