Wiley X JAKL – American Sniper Signature Series: Honouring Chris Kyle’s Legacy

When two brands are built on shared values, the result is more than just a product — it becomes a tribute. The Wiley X JAKL – American Sniper Signature Series is a limited-edition release created to honour the legacy of Navy SEAL Chris Kyle — a man who trusted Wiley X eyewear while deployed in combat.

Led by his son Colton Kyle, the American Sniper Brand continues that legacy by supporting military members, veterans, first responders and patriotic communities worldwide. This collaboration represents authenticity, resilience and purpose-driven design.

Why Wiley X Was the Right Partner

According to Colton Kyle, this partnership was deeply personal. Chris Kyle trusted Wiley X in the field, and Colton himself has worn his father’s Wiley X glasses. Beyond the history, Wiley X has demonstrated genuine support for service communities — making this collaboration a natural and authentic fit.

Built on Shared Values

The American Sniper Brand is built around five core pillars: Godliness, Patriotism, Service, Passion and Excellence. These values align closely with Wiley X’s longstanding commitment to those who serve.

Colton’s journey has made him cautious about partnerships. Not everyone is who they claim to be. Wiley X has repeatedly proven its authenticity — which is why this collaboration carries meaning beyond branding.

A Community That Extends Beyond the Military

The American Sniper community includes military personnel, firearms enthusiasts, first responders and everyday patriots who support those who serve. Many international supporters are inspired by Chris Kyle’s story and connect their own journeys with the legacy.

Design Details That Honour Chris Kyle

This limited-edition JAKL was designed with intention. The custom colourway reflects American Sniper branding, while Chris Kyle’s signature is printed inside the temple — a personal tribute to the man whose legacy inspired this release.

The Bone Frog Engraving

Engraved on the right lens is the bone frog — a symbol representing fallen SEALs who gave their lives in service. Chris Kyle had a similar bone frog tattoo on his shoulder, symbolising fallen brothers watching over him. That symbol now forms part of this tribute edition.

Ballistic-Rated Protection Built for Service

This isn’t just eyewear — it’s a tool built for those who serve. The WX JAKL platform represents resilience through rigorous testing, ballistic-rated protection and attention to detail.

Designed for demanding environments, it delivers dependable performance whether in tactical settings, on the range, or during serious outdoor use.

Giving Back Through TACK-F

A portion of proceeds from this collaboration supports TACK-F, ensuring the project delivers tangible impact for service communities. The American Sniper Brand remains committed to mission-driven products that give back to those who sacrifice.
