Performance Vise Sunglasses: Ultra Black Z87+

Welcome to the dark side. The ULTRA Black 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 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.

Reviews

Antifreeze Heat Waves

"I’ve seen these to many times. I had to have them. I have another pair of future tech Heat Waves and love them. The polarization is good, the colors are straight ❤️‍🔥. I will continue to get more."

Les L. (5/5)

Nose holder on the glasses.

"Love heat wave glasses. But I have a large head so I need the xl's which is awesome you guys have them. But nose part is just slightly oversized, and tend to slide down my face. Very annoying. . . . the new grippers helped a good bit but if yall could shrink the nose just slightly, would be awesome!!! Or maybe have nose sizes as well."

Dutch B. (5/5)

Awesome shades

"Very comfortable on my head and face the shade tent is good will be buying another pair here soon. I have recommended them to everyone I work with."

Connor L. (5/5)

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)

Good Product but…

"I really love these glasses and want to give them 5 stars but they’re getting a four as the side shields will not release like they’re supposed to. The lock that holds them in place will not slide backwards to release as easily as advertised (if at all). I have tried everything, save for putting a flat head screw driver in there to pry the lock switch back as I am worried I will damage them and they will no longer serve their purpose as safety glasses. Other than that, they fit well, are tinted just right, and seem to withstand the elements."

Dwayne S. (4/5)

Comfortable, lightweight and solidly constructed!

"Construction is solid. Lightweight, but not too light. The rubber contact points do ensure a secure fit. Haven’t had them out on a motorcycle ride yet, but I am hopeful they do a decent job of blocking wind due to the side shields. They look great. Shipping was ridiculous fast. Overall, extremely satisfied with the purchase. Side note: Opted for the regular vs the XL version (I’m a 7 5/8 hat, so have a fairly large head). They are snug on the temples, but not tight enough to cause discomfort. Impressed so far! Excited to take them out on my next ride."

Terry M. (5/5)

Best safety/sunnys on the market

"Built very sturdy for all day use and dont get weird heads like a did with regular plastic safety glasses. Oddly enough the safety people on site complemented them numerous times"

Michael S. (5/5)

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)

Cycad Shades!

"Absolutely love the color and overall fit! As always great top notch high quality from heatwave!"

Kyle P. (5/5)

Great sunglasses wrong size

"Really good sunglasses just don’t fit me quite right. I got the regular size thinking it would fit because I have a normal head but squeeze my temple. I have a friend who has the XL ones and they fit a lot better I don’t have the money to buy new ones but was hoping by leaving a review I could maybe get a new pair of the XL."
