Skynet Sunglasses: Photochromic Z87+

It started with a simple problem. Scratched lenses. No matter the brand, scratches ruin all glasses, and it doesn't matter how careful you are - Scratches always find a way. From dust and debris to the hazards of the workbench, all the way down to the ground for your casual and always accidental face down drop. No matter what you do, the gauntlet of daily life just has to reach out and touch them once, and that's it. Your expensive lenses are scratched and your glasses are ruined.

We've developed something to change that. Created within the HWV Special Projects Division, the Skynet is a next-generation eyewear platform designed to take scratch damage head on with a replaceable protective layer Lens Protection Film (LPF) adhered to the lens, acting as a barrier against the everyday hazards. In the event of a scratch or an abrasion, just remove the film and your scratches are gone.

Replacement LPF installs easily using a jig (included with the Full Package, or available separately) and costs a fraction of full lens replacement, keeping your eyewear ready for the next thing life throws your way whether you are a hard at work, or hardly working.

NOW TWO REASONS TO MAKE THEM YOUR FAVORITE

the all-new LPF Skynet with Photochromic Lens

Heat Wave’s LPF system is now paired with your favorite tinting lens technology for unmatched versatility. 

Skynet is the first platform to combine LPF film protection with our Photochromic lens technology, seamlessly adapting to changing light conditions throughout your day while protecting your lenses from everyday wear & tear and beyond.

Fully Integrated Z87+ Protection

Redefining Durability and Protection in Eyewear

FASTER

At its core is a lens developed from the ground up using advanced manufacturing techniques, allowing for zero horizontal obstructions, improved strength, and a lighter overall system. A molded structural ridge adds rigidity without compromising the clean silhouette.

SMARTER

The design of the Skynet pushes toward a true nothing-but-lens look. Skynet eliminates the traditional frame across the front entirely, integrating structure directly into the lens for added rigidity and reduced weight.

BUILT FOR USE

Only what’s necessary remains—integrated lateral protection fused directly into the lens edge to meet Z87+ standards, paired with our Performance Series arms for the lightest system we’ve released to date at just 1.2 ounces.

Reviews

Best Pair I’ve Bought

"These are easily one of the best pairs of sunglasses I’ve owned. The Skynets look even better in person, fit great, and are comfortable enough to wear all day without constantly adjusting them. The Silver Z87+ lenses are clear, the coverage is excellent, and they feel solid without being heavy. What really stands out is that they don’t make you choose between safety glasses and something you actually want to wear. I can use them around the shop, driving, or just out for the day and they work equally well in all three. The style is exactly what I was looking for, the fit is right, and the quality feels worth the money. Heat Wave absolutely nailed these. I’ll definitely be buying another pair."

Literally saved me from splitting my head open

"I had these glasses on my hatbrim doing yard chores with my dad. He was on the tractor mowing weeds and I was spotting him, making sure he didn't hit anything he wasn't supposed to. Well he wasn't paying attention to his spotter and cranked the wheel and hit my head HARD with the bucked. The glasses took the brunt of the impact and saved my head from the leading edge of the bucket. 5 stars!!"

— Conner N. (5/5)

Head turner

"Getting compliments at work. The screen protector already fought off a scratch. They are lightweight. They fit great with hard hat. The case it arrived with is very sturdy. Shipping was online day sooner. Looking forward to the Sunblast when they are back in stock."

— Juan A. (5/5)

New favorite!

"I’ve worn the Quattro‘s for a few years now it never thought I’d get another style. I was worried about getting the Skynet being I’m 40 years old and didn’t want to look like I was trying too hard. These are the most comfortable glasses I’ve ever owned. I’ll be buying another pair just for personal use."

— Jon H. (5/5)

First time buyer.

"These glasses fit great, stay in place on my face no matter what I’m going, and the construction is unbeatable. Should of bought a pair awhile ago."

— Cole C. (5/5)

Great glasses.

"I loved these glasses for the 24 hours I owned them. Great darkness. Great fit and feel. I love the idea of the replacement covers. I wore them on the boat and went on the tube for what was supposed to be an easy ride with my kids. We'll our tube popped and we submarine under and lost my glasses. But I loved them so much I will be buying another set anyways."

— Michael S. (5/5)

"Thank you , there is nothing else to say. These glasses are amazing I am going to get another pair lol. Lpf on glasses is a investment protection."

— Will C. (5/5)
