Pit Viper - Exciters

The Pit Viper Exciters are the practical outlier in the Pit Viper line-up. Rather than focusing on dark polarised lenses for sunny leisure use, these use a clear ANSI Z87+ rated polycarbonate lens with 100% UVA and UVB protection, which makes them a smart choice for riders, drivers, beach setup, workshop use, windy launches and active days where you want eye protection without heavily tinting your vision.

In simple terms, these are a strong option if you like Pit Viper styling but need something more functional for mixed light, protection from spray, dust or debris, and day-to-day use where a dark lens would be a drawback. They are not the pair to buy if your main goal is cutting hard reflected glare off the water. For that, a polarised model will be better.

Where They Sit in the Range

The Exciters are the most protection-led and utility-focused model of the four. If you want a bright-sun polarised pair, look instead at the Pit Viper Polarized Originals or Pit Viper Polarized Double Wides. If you want a more lifestyle-led shape, the Pit Viper Elipticals are the more style-driven option.

Why Choose the Exciters

• Clear lens for mixed light means you can keep protection without overly darkening your view.
• ANSI Z87+ rated polycarbonate lens adds confidence for more demanding, active use.
• 100% UVA and UVB protection keeps proper sun protection even with a clear lens.

FAQs

Who are the Exciters best for?

They are best for buyers who want eye protection in mixed light rather than a dark, glare-cutting sunglass. They suit active outdoor use where a clear lens is more practical.

Are they polarised?

No. The Exciters use a clear non-polarised lens, so they are not the best choice if your main priority is reducing reflected glare on bright water.

Can I use them on the water?

Yes, especially for setup, launch, driving and general protection. For bright midsummer paddling or boating days, many buyers will still prefer a polarised lens.

Do they come with accessories?

Yes. This model includes a Firmcase, a Limpcloth and a Tie Downs retainer strap.
