What is XBlok Technology? Fortis Eyewear explains
Wednesday, 29 October 2025 / Published in Guides, Polarised Fishing Sunglasses

Fishing Eyewear Tech Explained (Simply)

There’s a lot of science behind good fishing sunglasses, but it doesn’t need to feel confusing. Here’s what each Fortis technology does and how it helps you catch more.

XBlok — Mirror Coatings

XBlok reflects harsh light away from your eyes. It reduces glare over bright water, especially midday or on wide open pits. Cool look. Smart purpose.

AR — Anti-Reflective

Reduces annoying reflections bouncing back from the inside surface of the lens. Less distraction, more focus on the fish.

Hydrophobic Coatings

Repels water, spray, fingerprints and drizzle. Droplets slide away instead of smearing your view. Clarity stays clean when it matters.

Switch — Photochromic

Adapts to changing light. Brightens in shade, darkens in sun. One pair for unpredictable British weather. Keeps your eyes relaxed.

Triple X — Polymer HD Lenses

Sharper clarity with ultra-low distortion. Lightweight performance for anglers who want a cleaner read on what’s beneath the surface. Do these make a real difference?

Yes. Every tiny improvement gives your eyes more useful information. That information drives confidence. Confidence drives better fishing.


Where to find each technology

  • BAYS – lightweight performance + XBlok coating upgrades.
  • Finseeker – AR Coating for pure focus (Finseeker Glass).
  • Vistas – Triple X for ultra HD.

Tech shouldn’t confuse. Tech should just help you catch more.
