Heat Wave Sunglasses by Frame, Lens, and Safety Rating
Heat Wave Visual organizes its sunglasses by frame family, and most families come in both a standard and a Z87+ marked version. Popular lines include Vise, Lazer Face, and Quatro, each with matching clip-on side shields. Lens choices run from clear and anti-fog to photochromic, Hi-Vis Yellow, blue light blocking, and mirrored tints, so you can match a pair to the shop, the truck, or the water.

Heat Wave Visual Sunglasses FAQ
Are all Heat Wave sunglasses safety rated?
No. Many carry a Z87 or Z87+ marking in the title, which refers to the ANSI Z87.1 eye protection standard. Apollo, Interceptor, Kids Lazer Face, and some Customs editions do not list one. Check the title if your job site requires rated eyewear. See also our safety glasses.
Do Heat Wave side shields fit any frame?
No. Each set is listed for a specific frame, such as Vise, Quatro, Lazer Face, or Rayth, and Performance frames take Performance shields. Match both the frame name and the version.
Which lens should I choose?
Photochromic lenses handle the most conditions because they darken outdoors and clear indoors. Clear and anti-fog lenses suit shop and night work. Hi-Vis Yellow adds contrast on cloudy days. Mirrored tints like Firestorm and Galaxy cut glare in full sun.
Which Heat Wave frame comes in a larger size?
Vise, Vector, and Lazer Face each offer an XL version. Start with XL Vector or XL VISE if standard frames feel tight.
