Julbo Eyewear USA

 just really looks cool. People really like that effect. So we have in the line. this is the super light red lens and this is where I really think it excels in the ski goggles because especially in New England specific northwest or even out west when when you guys do get clouds, this this super light red lens really excels in that flat light When you get swallowed up by clouds or you're trying to make your way down the mountain and you're surrounded by clouds or you just kind of, you have that flat light and I'm sure most of you guys have experienced that at some point or another where you're just really struggling and this is this takes care of it

 This is new to the line this year and this VLT range is a little different. It's about 75% to about 17% so it doesn't go quite as clear as the regular zebra light in it. but it does go darker. It stays darker and that being it's a red base tint

 Some people really like that effect so we have it in the line. It turns this reddish sort of blue. Kind of really cool mirror effect on it when it when it darkens right up. So this one, this one's really popular

 gotta keep in stock. This is the Zebra Light red. This is new to the line this year and this VLT range is a little different. It's about 75% to about 17% so it doesn't go quite as clear as the regular zebra light in it

Julbo REACTIV Zebra Light Lens Review

Okay, I'll try to adhere to Amazon review guidelines. The specific features of the product that was ordered were both COLOR and STYLE. The color was wrong. Wrong wrong wrong

 I mean I showed the picture to someone I know, who is totally color-blind, he sees in black and white. Even he could see the difference in style, never mind the hideous red and yellow color.  No profanity, no ads, no links, as before.

.  Your review should focus on specific features of the product and your experience with it. We do not allow profane or obscene content. This applies to adult products too

 The color was wrong. Wrong wrong wrong. So wrong as to be almost comical. The style is not even close; I mean there are two lenses and two temples, but that's about it

specific features of the product are wrong

  To begin with, the "Julbo Aero" (bought at GBP 60) served me very, very well while hiking the Swiss mountains. They provide an excellent sharp, uncolored picture, almost have no glare, protect your eyes from the wind and are very comfortable. They never move around (not in my face/head anyway); you place them on your face and they stay there. They're light weight and, again, comfortable to wear

 They never move around (not in my face/head anyway); you place them on your face and they stay there. They're light weight and, again, comfortable to wear. I was happy to put them on everyday because I forgot I was wearing them easily. In fact, I've never worn sunglasses other than for hiking but now I continued using these when I go for a walk around the city

Excellent purchase.

These are the clearest driving sunglasses we’ve found, with no perceptible distortion.

Quality, quality, quality. Yup, the Maui Jim Spartan Reef has the highest rated lenses and frames in our lineup. With actual glass optics, metal hinges, and break-back spring arms, these glasses are noticeably top-of-the-line. Thanks to the wrap-around fit, they also have great coverage and a comfortable fit, and were the only wrap-around to not fog up on us after some heavy activity.
The quality of the Spartan Reef does come with a weight disadvantage. They are the heaviest pair we tested at a whopping 47 grams. But thanks to the stellar fit and function of these glasses, they wear more like a 35-gram pair. If quality is what you are looking for and you don't mind spending the cash to get it, these are frames that we heartily recommend. 

We almost can't believe just how flexible the Maui Jim Red Sands are. These nylon frames are exceptionally thin and ridiculously bendable, all without distorting. This supreme flexibility makes them insanely comfortable to wear, as they grip your head without ever feeling tight. Adjustable nose pads are an unexpected upgrade that help you find the perfect fit for your nose. The lightweight lenses lose nothing in clarity, contrast, or color rendition and are comfortable and easy to wear. The large size and adjustable fit also helps these shades to provide top-notch coverage.
Some of our testers felt that these lenses were a bit large &mdash; though they're meant to be, and advertised as such. They're also a tad sporty, though not nearly as much as some others we tested with angular rectangular lenses and mirror coatings. They're still some of our favorite glasses to wear and were always the pair we reached for when comfort was paramount.

As much as we love the thousands of excellent plastic lenses out there, the optics of the Maui Jim Spartan Reef remind us of the benefits of glass lenses. These impressive shades are some of the highest-rated lenses in our testing, with crystal clarity that's hard to beat. Flex hinges and cleverly placed rubber pads also make their durable frames comfortable. And the wraparound fit adds coverage to a fairly low-profile pair of shades. Impressively, these were the only pair of wraparound glasses that didn't fog up at all during our high-intensity workouts.
Those remarkable glass lenses do come with an added weight cost, making these one of the heaviest pairs we tested at 47 grams. Despite this, the close, well-balanced fit of the Spartan Reef doesn't feel too much heavier than average. Some of our narrowest-faced testers found this to be slightly larger than they'd like, though they still stay put and perform admirably. All in all, it's hard to beat the supreme quality and performance of these low-profile sports sunglasses.

Hey everybody, this is Sunglass Rob from Sport Rx and today we're here to talk about the best men's polarized Maui Gym sunglasses real quick. If you find this video helpful, we would love a like and subscribe to our channel. why not? It's free! [Music] Okay, so these are our favorite pairs of Maui Gym men's sunglasses. The top seven

com or we're a little bit old school. We got people on the phones. We got licensed opticians on the phones that know everything about Maui Gym and would love to help you get you the exact perfect pair for what you need. So pick up the phone and give us a call

 All right. The first pair we're going to talk about is the Maui Gym Ho'okeepa And yes, I might mispronounce some of these, but Ho'okipa I know because this is the most popular Maui gym sport frame. it might be their best selling frame in general. I'm not exactly sure on that, but we sell a lot of these here at Sport Rx because it is a little bit more of their sporty frame sizing

Best Maui Jim Sunglasses for Men 2020 | SportRx

Look for something *without* spring hinges. If a frame is going to break, it's there. They seem like a good idea, but only a couple of brands do them right. Otherwise it's a needle thin piece of metal under tension inside there

 They seem like a good idea, but only a couple of brands do them right. Otherwise it's a needle thin piece of metal under tension inside there.

In terms of "buying for life", look for a high quality acetate frame, but even the best will get brittle with age eventually (except for a material called Optyl, but that is rare and tricky to work with unless they know what they're doing). Don't *ever* let someone try to adjust them if they don't know what it is. To quote my teacher "It lasts forever until a dispenser touches it."

The fit on your head is important, but look for a frame that's comfortable on the bridge of your nose, as that bit isn't adjustable on shell frames. The rest is adjusted behind the ears.

These are my favorite pair of sunglasses but they are cheaply built and are scratched and easily smudged. Can somebody please help me find a high quality, possibly prescription lookalike? (The pink part is lightly translucent and the lenses are gradient-pink tint, only info on sides is 1152 382020)

 I really, really do love this pair of Maui Gym Sunglasses, so I'm popping them on one so you guys can see a cool looking pair of sunglasses in two so you all can't see my eyeballs while I'm reading from the article here on my phone. So the title of this press release is Current Eyewear acquires iconic Us eyewear brand, Maui Gym. Founded in 1987 in Hawaii, Maui Jim is the world's largest independent sunglass brand in the world. Rooted with exceptional design in the industry-leading technology, a high-end and highly differentiated product offering untapped growth opportunities fully complementary with Current Eyewear existing portfolio

 He also says that both companies have very proud paths and that they are excited to join together for an even brighter future. Okay, so now let's go ahead and give my opinion about how I think this is going to affect Maui Jim in the short term and in the long term. So in the short term, I really don't see much change happening to the Maui Gym brand. I don't see their sunglasses getting a lot cheaper, a lot more expensive

 Founded in 1987 in Hawaii, Maui Jim is the world's largest independent sunglass brand in the world. Rooted with exceptional design in the industry-leading technology, a high-end and highly differentiated product offering untapped growth opportunities fully complementary with Current Eyewear existing portfolio. So I'm going to leave a link description below to the full article, but it kind of goes into some boring detail about Maui Jim's distribution network and stuff like that. But here I want to continue the article where the President and Ceo of Current Eyewear talks about how Maui Jim has a unique positioning in the market with their very high end and technically innovative sunglass brand that's beloved by its clientele

 If I were to own Maui Gym, what I probably do is kind of unify their sunglass lineup and you know, really amplify some of the classic styles. One of my biggest complaints about Maui Jim is they come out with some really killer styles and they just completely discontinue them like two years later never to be found or heard of again and that's really annoying and frustrating. If I were them, I would create some really good designs which they've already done and kind of make some staples and classics in their sunglass lineup. Kind of like they've already done with sunglasses like the Maui Jim, Mavericks and the Maui Gym Calico

The End of Maui Jim

Maui Jim. One of the few solid brands that’s not owned by Luxottica. They’re pricey, but made to take a beating. And customer service for repairs is great

 They’re pricey, but made to take a beating. And customer service for repairs is great. You can find past year models for ~50% off at Costco. Great stuff

I want something that will take a beating without showing it (like the revision glasses mention below).  I'm specifically looking for polarized aqua mirrored lenses and I'd prefer to stay away from anything owned by luxottica, or other monoplositic giants I might not know about.

I've got two pairs of sunglasses at the moment.  One by revision eyewear, which is mostly angled towards military use and are basically indistructable, and one from knockaround.  The revision eyewear glasses are insane.  They've literally been hit by a hammer before and I didn't even notice a difference in the optical clarity.  Issue is they don't fit my face very well and their lense options and frame styles are pretty limited, especially if you want want polarized lenses, so I find myself wearing the knockarounds a bunch.  They're much more comfortable for me, and look great with exactly the lense type I want, but they inevitably pick up scratches over time (I may have solved this) and even if you never damage them the plastic of the frame seems to fail eventually.  My last pair broke the joint at the arm while I was wearing then driving.  Nothing touched them at the time.  I still don't understand it.  So to end my rant, does anyone know a company that is stupid tough and has a good selection?


As I side note, my solution to lenses scratches was to make a hard snap on lease cover.  I think that over time small amounts of dust would transfer from the lenses to microfiber case and lead to micro abrasions.  So far it seems to be working.  At the very least they're lasting way longer than any I've had before.

Durable sunglasses with good selection/customization

Maui Jim lenses are simply the best These are ultra light and fit great for me and I have a wider than average face but doesn't feel like bending them or any pressure on my temples or ears (other sunglasses do that and gives me headaches if wear them long) Excellent look to boot I got blue lenses for general purpose use and keeping eye out for a sale to get another pair or two with other lenses for variety and use for different applications Best sunglasses I've ever had

Fit perfectly and unparalleled lenses and look great

Maui Jim, progressive lenses, extra dark, polarized, anti-glare, anti-scratch. wrap-around.  High refractive index lenses, so thin and light.  Best sunglasses ever for me

I’m willing to spent around $350 on a good pair of sunglasses if the price reflects it. I was looking at Julbo’s sunglasses since they have the lenses that change shade intensity kind of like transition lenses. I hike on forests, open areas, deserts, and above the tree line; so basically pretty much everywhere because I travel around a lot. 

I definitely want side shields since my eyes are crazy sensitive sometimes. I’d say that’s a big requirement. Polarized lenses, anti scratch coating, all that stuff. Price has to reflect quality. 

Let me know what you use and what your likes and dislikes are about them! :)

Thanks, folks!

Looking for some fellow hikers who wear prescription sunglasses. What Rx sunglasses do you recommend?

 The lens clarity seems as excellent as you'd expect, so no issue there. But they're very lopsided when put on - it's impossible to get them to sit right - and just put together very poorly. They fit more like some $5 pair you might buy at a gas station convenience store on the way to the beach.

 They were excellent.  This $210 Maui Jim pair, on the other hand, are a major disappointment in fit and the way they're put together.

I bought this pair to replace a similar Maui Jim pair that was lost on vacation. I bought that last pair about 5-6 years ago, paid about $170 for them from a mall kiosk. They were excellent.  This $210 Maui Jim pair, on the other hand, are a major disappointment in fit and the way they're put together

 They fit more like some $5 pair you might buy at a gas station convenience store on the way to the beach.

Higher price, lower quality?  Seems like it.

 Picture shows Makaha in foreground, Ho'okipa in background; compare lines sizes and bridge height.

 User fit may vary, but I definitely get my vision interrupted by the shadow or sight of the bridge in my vision. I'm sure for most this would go away, but while I can still replace Makaha Rose lenses, I will. Picture shows Makaha in foreground, Ho'okipa in background; compare lines sizes and bridge height.
