Mountain-ready protection without the bulk of traditional glacier glasses.
Julbo says:
Julbo has combined its high-altitude technical expertise with a modern look to create high-protection, high-performance sunglasses. Removable fabric side shields provide flawless protection and comfort. Fitted with the Air Flow venting system, SHIELD M will be your ally of choice when you start to work harder on the ascent. They'll stay firmly in place thanks to curved Grip Tech temples and a non-slip bridge. And the sophisticated design will add an extra note of boldness to your next high-altitude challenge.
Our Verdict
The Shield M stands out because the Reactiv 2-4 lens covers an unusually wide range of conditions, from dull valley days to bright alpine sun, without needing lens swaps. At 31g, I think the balance between protection and comfort is particularly well judged. The removable side shields noticeably reduce side glare while remaining comfortable. Ventilation is also effective, helping limit fogging during sustained climbs.
