Julbo Colorado Sunglasses - Spectron 4 Lens

I think you would be hard to find a better value when it comes to outdoor glasses. I used them on a very sunny day with full snow cover and was very happy with them. They did a great job of blocking transient sun reflections. I would recommend them to anyone unless you really just want to buy something really expensive.

Looking for good protection at a good price I tried both the Tasman and the Colorado. The Tasman fit well w/o the side shields, but with them, felt a bit tight. The colorado are much larger, maybe even too large, but this is mainly aesthetic. Even though they are big, they fit well, secure, and offer good coverage and keep the light out.

I have had a pair of these for a few years now. The price is right and they fit well and the lenses are quite dark. However the durability on them is pretty poor.
The problem I have have had (3 times now) is the earpieces, where they bend behind your ears, come loose from the ridged portion of the earpiece. Leaving them just barely hanging on by the rubber on the flexable part of the piece.
The only reason I have given these two stars is that when Julbo is e mailed about the concern they have mailed out replacement parts no questions asked in less than a week.

Very good glasses for the price. A little large for my face, but I opted these over the Tasman model - made for smaller faces - which was a tad too small. Comes with carrying case and drawstring.

Just bought on SAC. Very happy with them. Light weight, flexible frames, good for activities beyond the mountains.

Had both the Colorado and tthe Tasman (my face fits the smaller Tasman better) and both gave really great eye protection even without the side-flaps...and better ventilation with them removed anyways. With the flaps on, they could fog up when post holing up slopes etc. The mirrored lenses do focus the sun onto your nose though, especially in the snow/ ice, so be careful to wear either a nose-guard or plenty of cream. Both glasses survived really rough treatments on climbing expeds, ski trips and daily wear, never breaking despite my lax care. However after about 1-1and half years the rubber coating on the bendy arms split and inside brass wires came unstuck requiring some repairs.

Good air and light protection, while allowing good vision in shade. I wear them driving as well. Will cover my corrective lenses easily without bumping. Case and retainer cord is a bonus not mentioned in description and good value.
