Description
The Howard Leight Vapor II is one of those pairs that earns its spot in your range bag without making a fuss about it. The orange lens is the star here, filtering out blue light so your target sharpens up against green trees, gray overcast, or an open field. That makes it a favorite for clay shooters, hunters, and anyone spending time outdoors when the light isn't cooperating. Orange tints are known for making orange and pink clays practically jump off the background, which is exactly what you want when tracking a fast bird.
What Sets the Vapor II Orange Lens Apart
The lens is optical-grade polycarbonate built on a 9-base wraparound design, giving you a full 180-degree field of vision with no distortion at the edges. That wide peripheral view matters when a target comes in from the side or you're scanning a course. The lens also carries a 99.9% UV rating and a Uvextreme anti-fog coating that holds up through repeated cleanings rather than wiping off after a few uses, so it keeps performing in humid or hot conditions.
Comfort That Holds Up on Long Range Days
Howard Leight kept the frame light and simple. The black nylon frame pairs casual sport temples with a soft nose bridge that flexes to fit different face shapes and keeps the glasses from sliding when you're sweating or moving. It's the kind of fit you forget you're wearing halfway through a session, which is really the whole point of good eye protection.
A Practical Pick for the Range and Field
The Vapor II meets ANSI Z87+ high-impact standards, so you're covered against flying debris, brass, and the occasional stray fragment. One nice touch is that Howard Leight eyewear and their earmuffs are built to work together, so pairing these with a set of muffs won't cause any gap or interference at the temples. For a rugged, no-nonsense pair that handles overcast days and busy backgrounds well, the orange Vapor II is a solid everyday choice.

Frequently Asked Questions
What conditions is the orange lens on the Vapor II best for?
The orange tint shines in overcast, hazy, or low-light conditions where flat light washes out your target. It blocks blue light to boost contrast, making orange and pink clay targets stand out against green trees, gray skies, and open fields. Clay shooters and hunters tend to reach for orange when the day gets gloomy.
Do the Vapor II glasses fog up during use?
The Vapor II uses a Uvextreme anti-fog coating designed to minimize fogging in humid and extreme conditions. Unlike cheaper coatings that wipe away, this one is built to hold up through repeated cleanings. It won't make them completely fog-proof in every situation, but it holds clarity far better than an untreated lens.
Will the Vapor II work with earmuffs?
Yes. Howard Leight designed their protective eyewear and earmuffs to be compatible with each other, so the temples are built to sit cleanly under a set of muffs. That means less pressure on your ears and no gap that lets sound sneak through.
Is the Vapor II rated for impact protection?
The Vapor II meets ANSI Z87+ high-impact standards, so it's built to handle flying debris, ejected brass, and stray fragments at the range or in the field. The optical-grade polycarbonate lens also carries a protective hardcoat to help resist scratches over time.
