California residents, please read the Proposition 65 warning

From commercial to Close Air Support, our glasses have seen action across the globe. Deciding it was finally time for a high-flying metal aviator, we aimed for the sky.

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.

Reviews

Nice quality, but not for me.

"Too large for my face. Sit high on the face as well. Very flat across the face. Not really what I expected. They're very aviator like. I expected them to be a little more subtle. They look great on Travis Pastrana, but I guess he's got a giant head. Strange because I can usually pull off any type of glasses. These just aren't it. I returned mine."

— Ryan B. (3/5)

Mom's Glasses

"I got these aviator glasses for my elderly mom and she Loves them. They fit your face great straight out of the box. I got the polarized ones to help her eyes in this Texas sun. The lens are dark enough for her. She absolutely loves them. She even took them to church today."

— Monica S. (5/5)

Solid pair of glasses

"I love the way they look. The fit great and the polarized lenses are comparable to much higher priced lenses. The only reason I’m giving a 4 star instead of 5 is the frame sits really high on my face- rather than hugging my face. It’s not a deal breaker… just a little different than any other glasses I’ve owned. But that could just be their style. Idk. I still really like the way the feel so I would buy another pair regardless."

Definitely not my last pair of heatwaves

"These shades are so slick. Perfect tint level, polarization, and love the way the gold heatwave print really pops against the brown on the sides. These are my third pair in my daily rotation and definitely not the last. Love them!"

Q&A

Will we be getting the aviators with the ultra black lense?
It does not look like we will be getting that lens option for those frames anytime in the near future.
When’s the restock coming
It looks like we will be getting them back in stock in the Fall.
