Julbo Dust Zebra Light glasses


JULBO’S PHOTOCHROMIC Zebra Light lens lets between eight and 80 per cent of the available light through, depending on the intensity of the sunlight, and the change is so speedy and seamless that it’s barely noticeable on the trail.

The Dust frame weighs a meagre 34g and, with ergonomic, pre-shaped arms and a comfy rubber gripper around the nose bridge, it’s a pleasure to wear. It’s pretty flexible, so it fits most head and helmet shapes well too.

Our test glasses have had some hard use over the past few months.With the wet and muddy winter and spring we’ve had, the light-brown lenses are pretty scratched now and the anti-fog coating has all but worn off, but they’re still our go-to glasses for trail riding in changeable conditions.

Price 165$
