The Uvex Genesis XC is the extra-coverage version of Honeywell's flagship Genesis safety spectacle — a wraparound single-piece polycarbonate lens that meets ANSI Z87.1+ and CSA Z94.3 dual certification and blocks 99.9% UV, in a larger frame with adjustable temples and an adjustable nosepiece at a light 22-gram weight. Dual-sided Uvextreme anti-fog keeps the lens clear, and the line spans many tints and coatings — the all-day industrial workhorse for workers who want maximum coverage and adjustable fit.

Why the Uvex Genesis XC is the extra-coverage workhorse
When one model has to fit a whole crew and hold up all day, the details add up: the Genesis XC pairs a larger extra-coverage frame with adjustable temples and nosepiece so it fits a range of heads, keeps the weight to a light 22 grams, and carries dual-sided Uvextreme anti-fog so it stays clear under exertion or a respirator. Dual ANSI and CSA certification and 99.9% UV round it out. It's the flagship for maximum coverage without a goggle. Our full Uvex Genesis XC review rates it 4.7/5, and the safety glasses buyer's guide covers what makes a strong crew-supply frame.
Safety first: broad coverage helps, but the Genesis XC is impact-and-debris protection, not a sealed goggle — it is not rated against a chemical splash hazard, fine airborne dust, or vapor, which require sealed goggles or a face shield per your hazard assessment. Its welding-shade variants are for lower-radiation gas work only, never a substitute for a welding helmet during arc welding.

What the listing documents
From the published specs: ANSI Z87.1+ and CSA Z94.3 dual certification with 99.9% UV blocking; an extra-coverage wraparound single-piece polycarbonate frame with adjustable temples and nosepiece at a light 22-gram weight; dual-sided Uvextreme anti-fog; a wide range of tints including SCT and welding-shade variants; base model S3300HS. As uvex safety glasses go, the Genesis XC is the flagship — a genuine large fit safety glasses and a true anti fog safety glasses with dual-sided coating.
Choosing your Genesis XC variant
Match the tint to the light, with anti-fog on the coated variants: Clear from the clear-lens collection for indoor and respirator work, Gray or 50% Gray for outdoor glare, Amber and SCT tints for contrast. The clear-vs-smoke lens guide settles the outdoor call, and the dual-sided anti-fog variants pair with the anti-fog guide and anti-fog collection. The welding-shade variants live in the welding collection.

Where it fits by job and crew orders
The dual-certified extra coverage suits cross-border crews and all-day industrial work — the construction, manufacturing, and mechanics guides rank frames by task, and smaller-faced wearers should check the small-face guide and women's fit guide. Where the hazard exceeds impact — splash, dust, vapor — step to a sealed goggle from the safety goggles collection or the broader eye protection collection.
