Description

A classic mountain pair for long days outdoors. The wide lens and removable side shields also block sun, wind and glare from the side. Your eyes stay calmer in places without shade, like ridges and snowfields.

There are two photochromic lenses. The polarised Reactiv 2-4 cuts glare from water, ice and wet rock and always stays fairly dark. The Reactiv High Contrast 0-4 goes from almost clear to very dark; you notice it most with a start in the dark and a finish in full sun.

In doubt? Choose the Shield if you're regularly above the treeline or on snow. For forest loops and fast training sessions it's too closed; open running glasses ventilate better. If you have a narrow face, look at the Shield M.

Made for the mountains, not the track.

Why Julbo?

You start in the dark, run through a shady forest and an hour later you're on a bare ridge in full sun. One pair of glasses that handles all of that saves a lot of hassle. That's exactly why we carry Julbo at trrail.com.

Julbo makes sports glasses for runners, cyclists and mountain athletes. Best known are the photochromic Reactiv lenses and the light, frameless models you barely feel at high pace. For the mountains there are wider glasses with side shields.

For us, Julbo is above all a brand that knows what mountain light does to your eyes: photochromic lenses, a stable fit and more than 130 years of experience with eyewear.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between the two lenses?

The Reactiv 2-4 is polarised and stays between category 2 and 4, strong near water, ice and snow. The Reactiv High Contrast 0-4 can become almost clear, which makes it more versatile in changing light.

Can I drive with the Shield?

In bright light both lenses become category 4. You can't drive with that, so bring another pair for the drive to the mountains.

Are the side shields removable?

Yes. Keep them on in snow and wind, and take them off when you get warm while climbing.

Does the Shield fit a narrow face?

The Shield is the standard size. If you have a narrow face, the Shield M fits better.
