    Maybe not for sweaty people?

    Fanciest sunglasses I’ve ever purchased, by a large amount. Very happy with the lenses (0-4) in the California sunshine — huge upgrade for me. And the frame fits very comfortably on my small-ish face. Unfortunately, my eyebrows brush the upper part of the frame, channeling sweat/salt/sunscreen down the inside of the lenses, making them hard to see through. Now, I expect the close fit is a “technical” feature, not a bug. And in principle I can wear a sweatband or mop my brow periodically. Anyway frustrated with myself for not realizing this was a failure mode before shelling out so much cash. Will stick with my $25 Goodrs for trail running and reserve these for less sweaty activities.

    Hi Nicholas,

    Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback about the Shield M! We're thrilled to hear you're loving the REACTIV 0-4 lenses in the California sunshine and that the frame fits comfortably on your face — that's exactly what we aim for with the Shield M's design.

    We're sorry to hear about the sweat channeling issue you've experienced. You're absolutely right that the close, technical fit is intentional for performance, but we understand how frustrating it can be when sweat and sunscreen interfere with your vision during active use like trail running.

    Your feedback about this specific challenge is really valuable to us, and we've shared it with our product team as we continue to evaluate fit and functionality across different activities and face shapes.

    We appreciate your honest assessment and understand the frustration of discovering this after your investment. It sounds like you've found a practical solution by reserving the Shield M for less sweaty activities where you can fully enjoy those premium lenses and technical features.

    Thank you for choosing Julbo and for helping us understand real-world performance across different use cases.

    Good glasses

    Good glasses, but the 0-4 Reactiv lens does not react enough to light. Only goes to about a 3 in full sunlight

    Hi Curtis,

    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on the Shield M. We're glad to hear you're happy with the glasses overall!

    We're sorry to hear the REACTIV 0-4 lens isn't reaching the full darkness level you expected in bright sunlight. Your feedback about the lens performance is really valuable to us, and we've shared it with our product team as we continue to evaluate and refine our REACTIV technology.

    We'd also be happy to take a closer look at your specific pair to better understand what you're experiencing. Please feel free to reach out to our Customer Support team at info@julbousa.com — they can help troubleshoot and explore potential solutions with you.

    Thank you for choosing Julbo and for helping us improve.

    Nordic Skiing and Tennis

    The photochromic lenses are quite good. Only one slight imperfection (a dot) that catches light.

    The removable shields work well, though it might be easy to knock one off and not notice because the connection isn't all that solid.

    They don't fit my crooked face as well as I'd like. I wish there was some adjustability in the frames and maybe some spring hinges.

    Almost Perfect

    I like the width of the Shield M, but the curve in the temple arms isn't far enough back to reach my ears so the glasses tend to drop forward just a little while wearing them.

    The 0-4 lenses are great and work in any lighting. I did try to wear these with a buff over my nose shoveling snow in 10F weather. I couldn't get the ventilation correct so the glasses got a layer of moisture on the inside that made things a little blurry but they did not fog.

    I'll be trying the same lenses in a more easily customizable frame next.
