If our standard Photochromic lenses are wizard-like, the Super Photochromic is the Archmage of lens transition. Super Photochromic lenses get way darker than before by going from a mildly tinted 40% to a darker 10% VLT. From rummaging through your toolbox or taking a direct hit of retina-roasting rays—you get the perfect level of shade.
The performance line is a complete evolution in product - We’ve taken our ultra-sleek Quatro frame and given it a complete overhaul, finally making them Z87+ 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.
Meet 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 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.

More about the Quatro
For the ones who refuse to slow down and take notes on what the rest of the pack is doing: The Quatro.
We've taken Heat Wave's heritage design features and reimagined them with a race inspired, smooth profile and premium fit.
