Freeman added.

The new WX Chelsea is a fashionable women's sunglass that combines stylish good looks with the clear vision and advanced eye protection Wiley X is known for.  The WX Chelsea comes in two eye-catching versions.  Model SSCHE01 matches a unique Liquid Plum frame with Smoke Grey lenses, while Model SSCHE04 combines a fashionable Iced Tea frame with glare-cutting and attractive Polarized Bronze lenses.
