Julbo Paddle sunglasses
https://www.julbo.com
The Julbo Paddle sunglasses are high performance and though specifically designed to be used on water, they can also be used both at the beach as well as in the city, which is down to their stylish looks.
The Julbo Paddle sunglasses include features that combine technology and style. The frame’s innovative design contains thousands of air bubbles inside to make sure they float on water, and features such as the Grip Tech temples and Nose Grip ensure that the glasses stay put even in the face of wind or waves.
However, for the most challenging of conditions, the glasses come with a cord you can wear around your neck, which contains an extra floating attachment that adds buoyancy just in case they go astray.
The Spectron 3 lenses are made from polycarbonate and can be used for various activities, whether that’s in the sea or the mountains. They have level 3 protection, meaning they have a visible light transmission of just 13%, so they are perfect for day-to-day wear as well as on the beach, snow and reduces light on water reflections.
All-in-all, a unique bubble frame construction gives the Paddles genuine floatability, however, the Grip Tech temples and a Nose Grip nosepad mean you shouldn’t have to worry them falling off and you have the floating neck cord for extra reassurance just in case they do – perfect for watersports.
