Aggressive Performance & Maximum Attack
The 46CIPA Papaya is the newest and most energetic addition to our Orange Max portfolio. Designed for shooters seeking aggressive visual performance, this lens delivers exceptional lift in medium light conditions.
In collaboration with Zeiss, a completely new spectral curve was developed. The goal: drastically improved edge definition. The result is optics that not only highlight the target but also isolate it from the background with almost three-dimensional sharpness. If you're looking for maximum energy in the field of view to accelerate target acquisition, the Papaya lens is your first choice.
The highlights of the 46CIPA Papaya:
- Orange Max Evolution: Expands the proven Orange spectrum with a variant offering significantly more visual "push".
- Zeiss Spectral Technology: A new curve developed exclusively with Zeiss for superior edge sharpness and detail.
- Extreme “lift”: Optimized for medium light to make the surroundings appear bright and vibrant, while the target practically glows.
- Maximum target acquisition: Ideal for disciplines where milliseconds decide the hit and a clear delineation of the target edges is essential.
- Expert tip: "The 46CIPA is for shooters who not only want to see, but also visually 'attack' the target. The edge definition thanks to the new Zeiss curve is phenomenal – you see the clay target sharper than ever before."
Dimensions: The X6 glass design has a width of 140 mm and a height of 30 mm.
Weight: 38g
The X6 frame design offers a more generous fit and a wide range of frames for top athletes. It is ideal for people with medium to large head circumferences. We recommend the X6 model for head circumferences of 57 cm and above.
The X7 frame design offers a tighter fit. It is ideal for people with small to medium head circumferences. We recommend the X7 model especially for men with the following body measurements: height up to 1.80 m, weight up to 90 kg, and hat size up to 7 1/4.
To keep your Pilla-Gläser maintaining maximum optical performance and clarity for years, proper care is critical. Since these are high-precision optics from ZEISS, they require gentle handling.
Here are the most important notes on cleaning and storage:
Daily Cleaning
Remove coarse dirt: Before touching the Gläser with a cloth, you should gently blow off dust or sand, or rinse them under lukewarm, running water. This prevents hard particles from causing scratches when wiping.
Cleaning agents: Never use harsh household cleaners, glass cleaners, or alcohol-containing wipes. One drop of mild, pH-neutral dish soap (without moisturizing balms) and lukewarm water are ideal for removing skin oils and sweat. Preferably use ZEISS eyewear cleaner.
Drying: Pat the Gläser dry after rinsing with a clean, soft microfiber cloth. Avoid rubbing with high pressure.

Frequently asked questions
Do the glasses fit with ear protection?
Yes — the design has been optimized for compatible use with standard hearing protection; many club shooters confirm comfortable combination.
Does that really make such a difference?
Yes — enhanced contrast perception and reduced fog-up time lead to faster target acquisition in independent tests. Our professional testers report significant improvements in reaction time.
Isn't a cheap pair of glasses enough?
Cheap glasses save money in the short term, but they can show distortions, fogging, or a lack of shatter protection — the risk of making incorrect decisions in competition is higher. Pilla minimizes these variables with tested components.
Which glass do I choose?
See glass guide above. Or use our glass recommendation button for a personal recommendation.
How fast is shipping?
Standard shipping 1–3 business days. Spare parts 24–48h.
Are there spare parts?
Yes — nose pads, temple tips, and replacement lenses are in stock.
How scratch-resistant is the coating?
The anti-fog coating is scratch-resistant for normal use; for improper storage/handling, we recommend microfiber pouches (included in delivery).
CE / Standards?
Yes — meets ANSI Z87.1, ANSI Z80.3, AS1067, ISO 12312-1
