Read More Fit is right on for a smaller face like mine. Lenses are darker than your average sunglasses,just like advertised, but not too dark to use for driving. I like that even driving into direct evening sun I did not have to put down the windshield screens. The only issue I've had is that the side shields are difficult to remove. I feel like I'm going to break the frames, so I just give up. -

Read More Great eye protection at a reasonable price. A bit more stylish than the Sherpas, in my eyes at least. No signs of wear yet. It can fog if I'm standing still and have a balaclava redirecting my breath up into my glasses, but are otherwise fine. Can feel a bit tight on my temples, but still comforrtable enough to wear day after day for long days of climbing. -

Read More I purchased these sunglasses prior to a trek to EBC. I've worn them a few times on long training hikes in the Colorado mountains. I am NOT an expert on sunglasses--I've been hiking for 20 years in whatever is available. These are by far my most expensive purchase in that department. They fit fine for the most part, which is why I haven't returned them for a "perfect" pair (I'm a female with an average size face, but some sunglasses are better for larger males, and many slide down my nose). However, the right lense has this weird fit that seems to brush up against my eyelashes and even fogs a bit. Not sure why. The protection seems good, but I'm not so sure--I still squint sometimes. I do like the colorization (a brown tint). Overall, these seem to be a good value and do the job. They meet my biggest requirements--fit (not sliding down my nose) and protection that has to be better than my $10 pair. (I know this is a wishy washy review, but I don't know sunglasses like i know other gear items.) -

Read More I havent gotten to use them a lot yet, but as for what I have used them with, they worked fantastic. I have an unusually small head, and these were one of two Julbo sunglasses that fit me. The others were $160 so I went with these. Great, though I dont have much experience with Julbos as these are my first. I will update later but as for now I highly reccomend these.

Read More I was deciding between these and the lenses that automatically adjust but those dont get as "dark". I find that having the dark really really really helps when you're on snow. The cons of these is that under the trees, it can be too dark.
