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.

The Vector – A visual machine like no other: Powerful, versatile, unstoppable – The Vector is engineered by Heat Wave Visual for ultra-dynamic performance in a Z87+ complete package.

The Vector offers Heat Wave’s renown aesthetics and features an all new Hytrel® nose piece and unique frame design that is not only the lightest HWV frame to date at only 1.3 OZ., but is the most flexible allowing for superior adaptability and comfort. The end result is cutting edge eye-wear that blends both form and function without sacrificing either for the other.

Meets Z87+ Requirements:

Each pair meets or exceeds Z87+ Standards right out the box.

Our lens is injection molded from thick 1.9mm shatter-resistant polycarbonate that is built to withstand Z87 Mass Impact Standards. 

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

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

Disclaimer: Removing arms, and or changing configuration in any way voids Z87 compliance.

Lens Technology:
