Performance Quatro Sunglasses: Aqua Frost Z87+

Welcome to the dark side. This dark ultra violet lens has the tint (VLT) cranked down to 6%, compared to industry standards of 11% - These lenses are DARKER and legally should not be used when operating a vehicle. On the other hand, these are the ultimate bright outdoor lens. Whether you are on the snow, sand, a white rooftop or just want the ultimate poolside shark lurking lens these are for you.

Introducing a complete evolution in product - We’ve taken our ultra-sleek Quatro frame and given it a complete overhaul, finally making them Z87+ featuring new performance arms, with an integrated Quick-Latch side-shield system. In the comfort department you will find rubberized touch points throughout the frame also ensuring that the frames stay in place on your face. The cherry on top of the performance line is a lens matched side shield melds form and function together for a look that is flat out stunning and is entirely unique to the performance line.

Performance line features include 2mm thick lenses that meet ANSI Z.87 mass impact requirements plus an all-new extended length arm, specifically designed for our standard frame range, with new beveled emblems.

The all-new Quick-Latch side-shield system provides lateral protection from debris and unwanted side light meeting ANSI Z87+ standards with side shields installed. Rubberized Hytrel® inserts are strategically placed in the arms and, notably, now the nose bridge for a fit that is not only more comfortable, but grips and stays in place.

Meets Z87+ Requirements

Designed with dual purpose in mind. Performance + safety with unparalleled functionality. Each pair meets or exceeds Z87+ standards right out the box with side shields in place.

Our lens is injection molded from thick 2mm shatter-resistant polycarbonate that is built to withstand ANSI Z87 Mass Impact Standards.

Quick detach side-shields provide lateral protection and allow the frame to meet ANSI Z87+ requirements.

Each pair is boldly marked Z87+ on the frame, arm and lens.

Disclaimer: Side shields must be in place to satisfy Z87+ requirements. Incorrect removal or installation of parts may void Z87 compliance. It is the wearers responsibility to make a visual inspection on glasses to ensure all parts are secure and that the glasses are in good condition before each use.

Get a grip with Hytrel® touchpoints

Rubberized Hytrel® (TPC-ET thermoplastic elastomer) touchpoints on the nose & arms provide a comfortable, non-slip fit that you can wear seamlessly all day long.

Low profile arms have been designed for performance across all conditions, allowing for a better fit with headwear from hats, helmets, and hearing protection.

Hytrel® inserts provide a higher resistance to both natural and man-made chemical agents increasing durability and longevity.

Quick-Latch Side Shield system

The all-new patented Quick-Latch side-shield system functions just as good as it looks, and provides lateral protection from debris and unwanted side light meeting ANSI Z87+ standards when installed.

Side-shields are easily removed and installed with a slide of the integrated lever making swaps effortless and more intuitive than ever before with no wear on the frame or side shield.

Installed side shields feature a translucent base, for increased peripheral version with a unique lens matched coating.

Reviews

Awesome as always

"Have been a dedicated quattro wearer for over 6 years now. My boyfriend loves his Vise XL’s. Great as always but pls bring back the pink frames."

— Danielle I. (5/5)

Fashionable & Functional

"I’ve been very happy with these sunglasses. I work in commercial construction and have always beat up shades quickly. These seem to actually stand the test of time with continued use and plenty of protection for hands on work as well."

— Aidan J. (5/5)

Just what I needed.

"I bought a pair of these bc I do a lot of exterior trim work. The white PVC sheets can be blinding. My new heatwaves solved that problem. These things are so cool, all the guys are jealous. My favorite part is the side shields. Now I don’t want to wear any glasses that don’t have side shield. I love how thoroughly it keeps the sun out of my eyes. Super high quality, super good looking, super happy with my purchase. Next I’m going to get a pair of XL vice with transition lenses."

— Anthony D. (5/5)

Don’t sleep on Hesat Wave gear!

"Fantastic quality. It’s nice to order something online, and when it comes it actually looks and feels exactly like you’d expect it too. Not the usual bait and switch. Love how you guys colab with big names like Chevy. I’m a brand guy. This was my second order from you and it certainly won’t be the last. Love the retro logo’s. Thanks!"

— Brandon M. (5/5)

Good but not with a hard hat.

"They are good glasses but the ear piece is so long it catches the back adjuster in your hard hat…seems like a detail to be mentioned."

— Michael C. (3/5)
