The Julbo Shields are hybrid mountaineering sunglasses that blend the worlds of downtown and the high mountains. Nonslip curved temples and a rubber nose grip ensure the glasses stay on your face, even when the going gets rowdy. Soft side shields can be added or removed depending on the season: slap them on for maximum sun coverage and added air protection, or take them off for better ventilation and field of vision. The protection is so good with the side shields that you might forget your goggles at home. The style is so good without the side shields that you might even leave your pair of Gucci's at home.
