Sunglasses Julbo: French expertise for all your adventures

When you're looking for sunglasses that are high-performance, hard-wearing and suitable for all conditions, the name Julbo comes naturally. For over a century, this French brand has embodied optical expertise and a passion for the great outdoors. A specialist in sun protection for sportsmen and women, Julbo designs models for every type of use: mountain, trail, bike, ski, sea or urban.

With polarized, photochromic or tinted lenses, Julbo sunglasses guarantee effective UV protection while offering clear, glare-free vision. If you're wondering how to choose the right sunglasses for your activity, Julbo is the place to turn.

What are Julbo photochromic lenses used for?

Julbo photochromic lenses are one of the brand's major assets. They react automatically to light intensity, changing from a light to a dark tint for permanent visual comfort. On models such as the Julbo Fury Reactiv, the Julbo Explorer 2.0 or the Julbo Aerolite, these lenses adapt instantly to changes in light, making them ideal companions in the mountains, in the forest or even in the city.

They filter UV rays, reduce glare and prevent eye fatigue. For lovers of hiking or mountain biking, this is a strategic choice: no more need to change your pair of sunglasses depending on the weather.

What do polarised lenses add?

Julbo polarised lenses block annoying reflections, particularly those from surfaces such as snow, water or asphalt. This is the case with models such as Julbo Powell, Julbo Legacy, or the famous Julbo Whoops. They improve contrast and the perception of relief, making them an invaluable ally for driving, water sports and activities in the mountains.

Which models should you choose to suit your morphology?

Julbo has thought of all faces: light, flexible frames that fit perfectly without pressure points. The Julbo Fury, for example, are available in several sizes (small, medium, large) and are suitable for a multitude of morphologies. If you have a round face, opt for a slightly rectangular or square shape, like the Slack or Legacy models. For a more oval face, opt for round or butterfly frames, such as Julbo Monterosa.
