Our History
2015 - 2017 : How it all began
” As a competitive archer I struggled for years to find a suitable pair of sunglasses for archery that allowed me to shoot with no visual obstructions around the nose area during aim. Nose pads and frames would block the sight and target making it impossible for me to shoot in regular sunglasses.
I have light sensitive eyes and I would struggle through outdoor competitions squinting in the sun resulting in headaches and eye strain leading to a lack of focus and performance as the day went on. I tried other glasses marketed towards archery, but found them to be uncomfortable, unsuitable, or over priced. Talking to other archers, I soon realised that I was not alone, so I began working on a solution. The concept was to develop a quality, affordable and professional range of frameless sunglasses for use in shooting sports.
The idea soon took shape and our original product launched as X Sight Archery in August 2017. “

2018 : Our first time on the road
We made our first ever public trade show appearance at the 2018 Archery GB Indoor Nationals tournament spanning the first weekend in December. The quality and calibre of competitive British archers has never been better so it was a great time to take X Sight on tour. Attended by over 650 archers means places sell out fast for the biggest event of the indoor calendar. Since then, our success has exceeded our expectations; we have now sold over 2,000 sets and have sponsored numerous top archers from around the world.
2019 - NoW : 2RX DEVELOPMENT
Fast forward two years to 2019; X Sight Archery has become X Sight Sport and we have grown from a start up to an internationally recognised company and our products are used by some of the top shooting athletes from around the globe.
The product has organically grown beyond the field of archery and we now have a growing community of users in the clay shooting community, a sport which we also have a passion for. So, as well as what our customers told us, our natural progression for our next generation of glasses has been to be inclusive of other shooting sports as well as archery.
Our new model has had a complete design overhaul incorporating some highly requested features and a whole host of new lenses.
OUR EXTENDED FAMILY
We are a small team, but X Sight would not be the company it is today without the help from its’ customers and Pro Staff. The support and feedback we receive from our customers and Pro Staff team has shaped the evolution of our glasses. here are just a few of them.
Real results from top Athletes
Champions Choice. The X-Sight glasses are top quality and work perfectly for me. It's vision & colour engineering at its finest. The range of colours enables me to have high-definition of clays in all shades of light, which is vitally essential in Olympic Trap. I wanted a simple, straightforward system where I could easily change lenses without fuss. They are so comfortable I forget I am wearing them.
The results speak for themselves. X Sight shooting glasses have helped me obtain 6 Bronze, 4 Silver and 4 Gold medals, and the title of British Junior Olympic Trap Champion.
I cannot speak highly enough of the amazing X Sight lenses! They always ensure my vision and reactions are working 100% and this is such an essential part of competition shooting. The colour choices are incredible and I'm always confident I've got the perfect lens for each presentation. Having lenses that I can be comfortable and confident in plays a major part of the physical and mental part of clay shooting, so i am over the moon to be supported by such a fabulous brand like X Sight Sport.
I've had X Sight glasses practically glued to my face for the last couple of outdoor seasons of shooting and honestly I don't know how I coped before. I squint even on overcast days, and bright sunny ones are a nightmare. I also struggle to see past my nose without glasses, so in the past anything with a frame or nose pads didn't work for me. Having a full wraparound that extends further above and below the eyes makes a huge difference, meaning the X Sight glasses stay out of the way and still protect my eyes once my head is angled to see the target. I've got a set of lenses to cope with any light conditions that go wherever I go. Having a relaxed gaze makes aiming and shooting much easier and more enjoyable. They are comfortable to wear and the clarity of vision through the lens is excellent. I can shoot in bright sunlight and forget that I am wearing them. So now I can relax my face, open my eyes fully and just concentrate on what I'm actually here to do; shooting arrows.
What's next?
We are constantly looking at ways to improve and evolve our product range. You can expect to see a growing selection of lenses for clay shooting and archery including some lighter lens colour choices for the disciplines of clay shooting sports along with mirror coated lenses, new lens materials and coatings.
