Description
The Howard Leight Vapor II in amber is one of those pieces of range gear that earns its keep without asking for much. The 9-base wraparound polycarbonate lens gives you a full 180-degree field of view, so your peripheral vision stays open whether you're tracking clays or settling in behind a bench. The amber tint is the real story here. It pulls out contrast in flat, low-light conditions and cuts through haze, which makes targets pop against dull backgrounds on overcast days or under indoor range lighting.
What the Vapor II Amber Lens Does Best
Amber is a favorite among trap and skeet folks and anyone shooting in changing light. It sharpens definition and adds a little visual punch to orange targets and steel. Indoors, that same tint helps your eyes separate the front sight from a busy backdrop. The lens is optical grade and carries an anti-fog coating that holds up through repeated cleanings, so you're not fighting a fogged-over view when you step from a cool car into a humid morning.
Built for All-Day Range Comfort
Howard Leight kept this frame light. The nylon frame, casual sport temples, and soft nose bridge sit gently and conform to different face shapes, which keeps them from sliding down your nose when you're leaning into a rifle. The wraparound design locks in a secure fit and adds coverage from the sides, right where debris and brass like to sneak in.
One of the quieter perks: the Vapor II plays nice with the rest of the Howard Leight lineup. If you're already running a set of their earmuffs, these glasses are designed to be worn together without the arms breaking the seal on your muffs. The lens meets ANSI Z87.1-2010 impact standards, so you're getting genuine protection, not just a tinted lens. For a knock-around pair to keep in the range bag or hand to a buddy who forgot theirs, it's tough to beat what this one brings to the line.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I use the amber lens on the Vapor II?
Amber shines in low-light and hazy conditions where you need extra contrast. It makes orange clays and steel targets stand out against dull or overcast backgrounds and helps define your sight picture under indoor range lighting. If you shoot trap, skeet, or spend time on the range on gray days, amber is a smart pick.
Do the Vapor II glasses work with Howard Leight earmuffs?
Yes. The full Howard Leight eyewear and earmuff lineup is designed to be worn together. The Vapor II's slim temples are built so they won't break the seal on your muffs, which keeps both your ears and eyes properly protected on the line.
Are the Vapor II lenses rated for real impact protection?
They are. The Vapor II meets ANSI Z87.1-2010 and CSA Z94.3 impact standards, and the lenses are optical-grade polycarbonate. That means you're getting genuine safety-rated protection against flying debris and brass, not just a tinted lens.
Will the anti-fog coating hold up over time?
The anti-fog coating is designed to keep working through repeated cleanings, so it won't wipe away after a few uses. For the longest life, use a soft microfiber cloth to clean the lenses and store them in a case when you're done, since polycarbonate can scratch if you wipe it with rough material.
