California residents, please read the Proposition 65 warning

Cycad is our cyclical nod to some of our favorite mid-century modern tones, which just so happen to look pretty good as a pair of glasses. Sometimes green is just that good a color.

The Carat is the next generation in cat eye sunglasses, featuring modern flush mount, flat lenses set inside a timeless high gloss frame with polished gold details. The finished look is something that stands apart from the rest, yet fits in from casual all the way up to cause trouble. The Carat is guaranteed to be your new favorite daily driver.

Reviews

Love these

"I had the purple glasses forever and they finally broke. So I’m trying the black version. I received the polarized black lens by accident and didn’t like the rainbow effect it had. But Heat Wave was awesome and able to fix the issue. I will definitely be getting another pair of carats"

— Pam (5/5)

Mom glasses

"Bought the sunglasses for my mom. Her first pair of heat waves. She saw a pair of purple ones on someone else, and I knew immediately, they were heat waves and to get her some"

— Douglas A. (5/5)

Heat waves are the BEST!!!

Gorgeous sunglasses! They look amazing

"Gorgeous sunglasses! They look amazing on. I get so many compliments. They feel so much higher quality than any other pair I own. I would recommend these to anyone!"

— Wesley P. (5/5)

Not worth it

"While the sunglasses are cute on… the sides push into my temples and give me a headache. I can only wear for less than 10mins. Maybe 5% darker than normal sunglasses, definitely not ‘ultra dark’. Also feels like they’re at an angle and the bottoms angle towards your cheeks and the top outwards so lots of light comes in through the top. Wish I’d saved my money and not purchased these."

Q&A

Can the women’s Carat sunglasses be purchased with prescription lenses?
Unfortunately because of the shape of the lens and how it fits in the frame we are unable to make the Carats with a prescription lens.
