Wraparound Frames With a Built-In Shield

From Julbo, a French company that’s been making mountain eye protection for more than 125 years, the Shield sunglasses provide uncompromising protection during mountain biking, climbing, cross-country skiing, trail running, and more. The glasses feature removable side shields to protect your eyes from bright glares and distractions, along with a wraparound design that allows for a wide field of vision with enhanced clarity. Slim GripTech temples create a firm hold and can be worn under a helmet, while curved arms keep the glasses firmly in place when things get rough. Finally, the nose pads are coated with a shock-absorbing rubber that prevents the frame from bouncing or being lifted up by the wind.

Note: At checkout, choose the dark blue/blue/green or translucent black/black frame with Spectron 4 lenses (base price), the blue/blue/yellow frame with Reactiv Zebra lenses (+ $35), or the blue/blue/orange or dark gray/black/blue frame with Reactiv Chameleon lenses (+ $45).

About Julbo

Named after its founder, Jules Baud, Julbo has its roots in the Jura region of France, dating all the way back to 1888. Baud started out designing optical eyewear, and at the request of crystal hunters braving the mountains of Chamonix, began making protective sunglasses for the most extreme conditions. In the 1950s, the company revolutionized the market with the Vermont glacier sunglasses, built for mountaineers conquering the highest peaks in the world. And that’s exactly where Julbo tested its products—on 8,000ers like K2, Gasherbrum II, Broad Peak, and Nanga Parbat, among others. In the ‘90s and early aughts, Julbo expanded its line to include a wide range of sports and terrains, and today it even makes eyewear for children.
