Performance XL VISE Sunglasses: Easy Rider Photochromic Z87+

We’ve never had a tint range like this before. Starting with a Hi-Vis Yellow lens at 87% VLT for where you need that extra visibility, transitioning all the way down to our standard Black 12% VLT when the sun’s shining. The absolute best of both worlds for when you’re out riding or putting in overtime at the site, all while staying Z87+ rated in our Performance Vise frame. This is our best-performing Photochromic eyewear yet.

Wizard-like photochromic lenses are now available for the Performance Line. These adaptive lenses adjust from a clear to dark tint depending on the light intensity in your environment, and boast a wide VLT range at 87%-12%

Boasting the same great features as the standard Vise®, The XL version are (you guessed it) EXTRA-LARGE Heat Wave frames.

We took the time-tested design of the Vise® and added an extra 10mm in width and jacked up the ride height to 5mm to provide Godzilla-like, larger than life comfort and coverage.

About The Performance XL Vise®: Introducing a complete evolution in product - We’ve taken our legacy XL 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.

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.

Specifications by the numbers:

Lens Technology

The variable tint range of these lenses adjusts from a very clear 87% to a very chill 12% VLT of darkness, all in under 30 seconds. So when you're inside your garage grinding off all the bubblegum welds from a sweet barn find C10, you'll have crystal clear, z87 protection. When it's time to jam outside for the 5th Home Depot run of the day, the lenses will smoothly transition from clear to grey in a matter of seconds.

While these will NOT get as dark as our standard Black lenses. We picked a transition lens to provide ideal clarity indoors and as dark as possible outdoors to maximize the wearer's utility of this eyewear.

2mm thick Polycarbonate lens that meets or exceeds mass impact requirements for Z87 standards, injection molded to the highest standards and tested to ensure optimal clarity, along with color and light transmission standards.

We use only the highest quality photochromic filters on our lenses for optimal glare reduction and supreme clarity

Lenses are U6:L3 UV400 - 100% UVA / UVB blocking

Photochromic Lens VLT = 87%-12% / Cat 0-3

More about the XL Vise®

We’ve put the sunglasses game in a choke hold with the XL Vise®. Uncompromising and bold, the superior design of the Vise® is evident with its hard lines, squared up shape and relaxed fit.

We took the time-tested design of the Vise® and added an extra 10mm in width and jacked up the ride height to 5mm to provide Godzilla-like, larger than life comfort and coverage.

STANDARD VS EXTRA-LARGE

As far as measurements go, the XL Vise features an added 10mm in width and 5mm height and measures in at 152mm wide for a standard XL width.

Reviews

XL Heatwave Visual Photochromic Yellow-to-Dark Z87 Glasses

"These glasses are freaking awesome. The yellow lenses make everything look sharper and brighter, and when you step outside, they darken up like they’ve got a little attitude adjustment built in. 😂 They’re comfortable, the XL size actually fits my big head, and the Z87 rating gives me some extra confidence that they’re built for more than just looking cool. Best part? No more carrying around a pair of clear glasses and sunglasses like I’m preparing for a solar eclipse. These bad boys do both. Great fit, great optics, great transition, and they look badass. Five stars from me!"

— Tony G. (5/5)

Could be darker

"They fit good and the size is good and they fit my head like they should but I was unimpressed with how dark they get. When it’s sunny the sun will still hurt your eyes and blind you . They seem to be really good at night but could be darker and block the sun more during daylight hours, which sucks cause they are pretty expensive. I see they make a darker pair but as far as ones that have from a yellow tint transition to shades these are what you get. Was hoping these would be my last glasses but I’ll probably just wear these at night and then switch to a decent pair of shades for the daytime."

— Jesse b. (3/5)

Work glasses

"Love these for work. We are required to wear safety glasses and these are perfect."

— Colton C. (5/5)

The yellow makes everything unbearably

"The yellow makes everything unbearably bright. And they don’t transition very well unless in direct light."

— Ian J. (3/5)

Ezrider photochromic

"I like the fit a bit wide but it’s good cause not squeezing my head for 12hrs a day 6days a week, at first I thought the lens didn’t change until I was in direct sunlight they went black. but in the car behind the windshield they are just tinted safety glasses make sure to think threw the xl or regular size I wear a 7. 25 hat and these are wide on my face still stay on when bending over great pair of glasses tho"

— Nicholas L. (5/5)

I Need My Shades!

"I need my shades. My work environment is either direct sunlight or a room full of hazards. These transition lenses keep me covered. I can't wait for the transition side shields! Heatwave Forever!"
