Performance Vise Sunglasses: Black Z87+

Introducing a complete evolution in product - We’ve taken our legacy Vise® frame and given it a complete overhaul, making them Z87+ out of the box, 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.


Quick-Latch Side Shields

Patented Quick-Latch side-shield system provides lateral protection from debris and unwanted side light meeting ANSI Z87+ standards.

Side-shields come pre-installed, but are easily removed with the click of a switch making swaps effortless.

Premium emblems

Embeded & refined ICON emblems are beveled for premium fit and finish.

Hytrel® ARM INSERTS

Reviews

Side Shields

"The glasses fit nicely, the are a little tight on the back by your ears, but mostly comfortable for long periods of wear time. My only complaint is the side shields. In advertising and other vidoes of the glasses the slidelastch system on the shields is very hard to open snd close. Several reviews I have seen effortlessly open and close the sides. Mine seem to be extra tough. They still function and slide, but its quite difficult."

Evan J. (4/5)

Run a little tight

"I loved the normal Vise glasses, my only gripe was no rubber on the nose pieces. They fixed that with these and they are fantastic, there’s no slipping off my nose anymore. My only issue with these are that my old standard vises fit perfectly, and these are pretty tight. I feel like I should’ve got the XL even though the non performance fit great in the standard size"

Cade W. (4/5)

Looks and works great, but still not quite perfect.

"I really like these glasses, especially because of the side shields which allow me to have peripheral vision and light protection. I think the look is great too. The only caveat is that the nose/brow bridge is a little too wide, so that it does not fit up against my face securely, causing my nose hold the weight and get bruised slightly. I would prefer the Apollo bridge, but there are no side shields available."

Kevin M. (4/5)

I love them my only

"I love them my only issue is I just had to order new lenses immediately after opening them because they had a massive scuff across the left lense but things happen and mistakes are made ive been using heat wave for years and this is my first ever problem with anything"

Cody A. (5/5)

Best looking pair of safety glasses I’ve ever owned

"Look great on the job site, I can’t even tell that I have them on because the fit is perfect and the field of view is wide open, they don’t slide down my nose at all, I’m wearing them for 10 hours straight at work without any problems, very lightweight and comfortable, I like them so much that I just pickup the Easy Rider z87+ photochromic."

Eric H. (5/5)

Favorite Glasses of all time.

"Performance Vise glasses are literally the best glasses I own… and I’ve got at least 8 pairs. Last summer I bought two pairs of Aqua Frost because they’re my favorite color combo and I was worried I’d lose or break a pair and you’d be sold out of them. Can’t wait to see more and more colors come out… a patriotic/Top Gun drop would be badass. Just saying. ."

Corey W. (5/5)

FAVORITE BRAND EVER!

"STARTED WITH THESE A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM. I ALSO BOUGHT THE RAYTH (SIMILAR STYLE), BUT I LIKE THESE MORE. MORE FACIAL COVERAGE ON THESE ONES THAN THE RAYTH ALTHOUGH THEY ARE PRETTY CLOSE TO THE SAME. I LOST MY LAST PAIR IN THE OCEAN, SO BOUGHT SOME FLOATING SAVERS THIS TIME TOO! HIGHLY RECCOMMNED THESE FOR ANYONE USING SAFTEY GLASSES ON THE JOB SITE. THESE ARE MY FAVORITE PAIR OF SINGLASSES I'VE PURCHASED. I WEAR MINE EVERYDAY, ALL THE TIME. NEVER LEAVE THE HOUSE WITHOUT THEM!"

Tyler F. (5/5)

Best glasses I've bought in a long time.

"Absolutely comfortable, nice dark lenses. And the safety rating is always a positive if I ever need eye pro."

Heat Wave Vise 4 Life!!!!

"Im a truck driver and I wear my Heatwave Vise glasses for up to 14 hrs. a day. Their functionality is Amazing!!!! The feel and comfort are Awesome and hey never hurt my head, temples, behind the ears, or eyes. No Cap! Lastly I have a pair I've wore for two years straight, I literally beat the hell out of them daily, 100 degree plus heat, rain, snow, dirt/dust and they still look like new. In perfect condition!!! These glasses and lenses are indestructible, feel great, and look sooooo good!!! People ask me about them daily. Have I pairs in clear vapor, black, and now the antifreeze, so I can be stylee in any situation, at work, play, and out on the town. . . . Thanks Heatwave! Im a customer 4 life!"

Luis N. (5/5)

Great glasses

"I absolutely love these glasses. I have several pairs and different styles. Vise is my favorite due to the side shield and ans87 safety lense. I work in the oilfield and ive found that these glasses hold up pretty well in the conditions i wear them in. Highly recommend"

Q&A

Will being able to customize the performance vise sunglasses ever be an option? Seems when I go to customize it’s only available in the regular vise sunglasses.
It does not look like we will have custom performance Vises available anytime in the near future.
Will the polarized option be back in stock soon?
We will get that back in stock at the end of June
Are you guys ever going to release an anti-fog type for this in all black?
It looks like we will just have them available with a clear lens for now.
Are the performance vise glasses different measurements than the regular vises? Also what is the bridge measurement of the vise performance?
Here is a link to our frame size chart where you can see and compare the different sizes of our frames side by side: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0346/5945/files/Heatwave-Specs_Chart-OPTIMIZED.pdf?v=1718829659
Are the standard vise lenses compatible with the performance vise frames? I have the standard with prescription lenses and would like to upgrade the frames.
Yes the Vise and performance Vises use the same size lens.
