California residents, please read the Proposition 65 warning

Inspired by an era where the dollar was backed by gold, these Aviators channel old-school confidence with a modern edge. We gave the Nimitz a throwback look in all the right ways: polished gold frames and amber lenses. Now you’re ready for late nights and after-hours business—whether you’re buying an F14 or a used F-150.

The Nimitz is inspired by the namesake of the dominating NIMITZ class aircraft carriers and is a squared-off metal frame aviator, featuring a metal rim, with modern flat lenses and our signature bold branding on the arm. So whether you're ripping AIM-9X’s off the rails, running airspace from the tower, or just need a great pair of sunglasses to seek the heat in— you can trust that the Nimitz has the thrust to get you off the deck.

This style designates our first unisex addition to the GOLD line and works great on both male and female faces.

Awesome!

"I have needed these for years. Love this style. They feel so solid and well built. They are a bit heavy but I would expect that with them not being all plastic. Love these glasses!"

Bradley M. (5/5)

Solid Quality & All-Day Comfort

"These sunglasses are solid, well-built, and feel like a quality product from the moment you put them on. I use them as a pilot, so comfort and reliability are important, and they’ve been excellent on long flights. They’re lightweight, fit securely, and stay comfortable for hours without creating pressure points. The lenses provide great clarity and reduce glare effectively. Overall, a stylish, durable pair of sunglasses that performs just as well as it looks. Highly recommended."

Ayrton R. (5/5)

Best aviators out there!

"I have owned several pairs of Heatwaves over the years, and this pair is by far my favorite. These aviator look and feel extremely premium, and not flimsy like most other aviators out there. These aviator look “HEATWAVE” on the arm bar is subtle enough to not be flashy, but bold enough to let people know what glasses you’re rocking if they ask. These truely feel like a $200+ pair of glasses. I am extremely happy with the purchase!"

Love these glasses. I bought

"Love these glasses. I bought the dark lenses and thought they couldn’t make them any better. I have never been more wrong in my life. I wear them all the time"

Nicky M. (5/5)

The pictures don't do them

"The pictures don't do them justice. They look and feel better than the pictures show. Light frames and solid shape. I was looking for a different style of sunglasses as i usually stick to the classic wayfare but these were it and I like them"

Eric F. (5/5)

"My boyfriend loves them and they are dark enough for his blue eyes"

Sarah R. (5/5)

Amazing

"I’m not a fan of amber shades but to show love to Heatwave, I bought a pair. Turns out, they’re one of my favorite ones! They were so stylish that even my mom wanted a pair! I gave her my second pair as a birthday gift so now we can both rock out in style."
