The Best Cycling Sunglasses

Sunglasses are essential equipment for any ride, whether it’s a gravel epic or a singletrack rip after work. But like your favorite pair of riding shoes, sunglasses need to fit...

 


- WHAT MAKES A PERFECT RIDING SUNGLASS? -

1. THEY’RE LIGHT WEIGHT Weight should always be a top priority. The lightest frames can reduce hotspots and disappear into the background, allowing you to focus on the ride. The sunglasses in our biking range weigh between 22 and 38 grams, making them some of the lightest on the market. 

2. FRAME FITS SECURELY Pay close attention to the materials and the design of the temples and the nosepiece. Adjustable and non-split materials will be more comfortable and stay on more securely when your face gets sweaty or the trail becomes technical. We design our frames to be light, adaptable and technical, with thin, adjustable, non-split temples that will fit under a helmet and an adjustable nosepiece to provide a secure and comfortable fit.

3. THEY OFFER SUPERIOR EYE PROTECTION Beyond offering protection from the sun's rays, sunglasses help keep your eyes clear from dust, wind, cold, bugs and other things that can disturb your vision. This will help optimize your performance during any ride. With durable frames and high-quality lenses, our biking sunglasses provide protection against whatever the trail throws at you.

4. THE LENSES ARE HIGH QUALITY You might experience everything from bright, midday sun to overcast, rainy conditions on a ride, which can lead to compromised visual clarity and eye strain. Ensuring clear vision and protection no matter the weather or time of day will enhance your ride. This makes selecting the right lenses one of the most important aspects of purchasing biking sunglasses.


- TOP 3 CYCLING SUNGLASSES -

FURY

The FURY is a favorite of the entire Julbo team. The Fury’s lightweight, fully vented frame and wide field of vision have you covered, whether you’re barreling down your local trails or ripping up the tarmac.

Frame: The Fury is lightweight and designed to fit perfectly under any helmet, with a wide, cylindrical lens for maximum field of vision. Strategically positioned vents prevent fogging during wet rides and hard efforts while the elastomer Air Link Temple System offers improved comfort and lightness.

Comparison: The medium-sized Fury fits slightly smaller than the large Intensity and Frequency, with a cylindrical lens versus the other sunglasses’ spherical style. It’s just as vented as the other two options, and while the temples and nosepiece are not adjustable like the others, the elastomer on both offer a secure and comfortable fit.

DENSITY


World Cup mountain biker Savilia Blunk trusts the Density as her race-day go-to. Its ultralight, semi-frameless design, CustomFIT temples, and larger fit deliver all-day comfort and performance for long hours in the saddle.

Frame: Built for uncompromised cycling performance, the Density delivers a wide, unobstructed field of vision thanks to its perfectly vented, panoramic lens. CustomFIT temples offer 360° adjustability for a secure, helmet-friendly fit. And at one of the lightest weights in our bike lineup, it virtually disappears on long rides.

Comparison: The Density offers the largest fit in our cycling lineup, paired with a cylindrical lens similar to the Fury. It’s also the only model featuring CustomFIT adjustable temples for a fully personalized fit.

INTENSITY

With its sleek semi-frameless design and featherlight feel, the Intensity is the go-to choice of Olympic Silver Medalist Haley Batten. Built for speed and endurance, it delivers pro-level performance for long, fast days on the bike.

Frame: The Intensity stands out for its ultra-lightweight, semi-frameless design that’s built for speed, endurance, and all-day comfort. Its large, vented lens delivers a wide, unobstructed field of view while actively reducing fog. Grip Tech temples and a non-slip nose piece keep the frame locked in place, even when you’re sweating or moving aggressively, and the helmet-friendly fit offers the stability athletes need. The Intensity prioritizes minimal weight, ventilation, and a barely-there feel—perfect for riders and runners who want top-tier clarity and performance without any distraction.

Comparison: The Intensity is all about low-weight efficiency and ventilation. The Fury delivers a bold, full-shield look with maximum coverage for aggressive, high-speed riding, while the Density brings a larger fit and a more premium, customizable feel with its adjustable CustomFIT temples. The Frequency offers versatile, everyday performance with a slightly more relaxed fit suited for multisport use. The Intensity sits in the sweet spot for endurance athletes—lighter, more streamlined, and better vented than the others—making it the ideal choice for long, fast efforts where comfort, clarity, and breathability matter most.
