Julbo designed the Auckland GT Sunglasses for stellar optics and protection on the mountain, at the beach, or just during bright, sunny days around town. The Auckland GTs feature Julbo's Spectro X4 lenses, renowned for their clarity, durability, and 100% UV blockage. Ergosoft elastomer ear pads won't slip off your skull during rigorous hiking or summer mountaineering, and the composite frame feels lightweight and comfortable during all-day wear. The Aucklands fit a large face best.
Bottom Line: From New Zealand's North Island to New England's Appalachian Trail, the Auckland GT delivers premium optics.

Good Mountain Glasses

These things are great on the mountain. The Spectron X4 lenses have very low light transmission and are fantastic for sunny days on the snow; these are the same lenses in the Julbo Micropore glacier glasses. They have very good coverage; the lenses fit close to the face and block light above and below, and they have pseudo-sideshields built in. They're not quite full glacier glasses because the sideshields aren't full coverage so you probably don't want to be on glaciers about 14,000ft with these, but for everything less extreme than that they're golden.
I do not recommend them for driving, cycling, or casual use. They are too dark for casual use, and the sideshields block enough peripheral vision to make them dangerous while driving or cycling.
Change me.
