Great I am on my fourth pair of these glasses. Not because they don't last, but because I am very demanding on my sunglasses. I love them. They are awesome.I wear them every where. I spend alot of my spare time backpacking in the Sierra Nevadas. I am an airline pilot and spend alot of time at 35,000 feet. And ride my motorcycle all over California and Nevada. I wear my Julbo's all over. I feel naked with out them. Julbo even replaced one pair at no charge when the frame broke prematurely.

Eye Protection Accomplished...Other Adjustments Would Be Nice These Julbo glacier glasses provide excellent protection against harmful sunrays. To make a good product great I would recommend spending a little more time in redesigning the protective case as it is ill-suited for quick and secure closing, storing, and opening. I would recommend redesigning the leather protective coverings as they permit lots of sunlight to come coursing through the top part and past the wearer's brow. Julbro might have the next size up for guys who have eyes and cheekbones that are tightly confined to the present eyeglass construction parametres. All in all, still worht the price, that is, if you value your eyesight.

Perfect glasses Wasn't too sure about these when I first got them, but after a lot of use they are perfect. At the beach, deep sea fishing, hiking, anything and everything. They do say that they should NOT be used for driving, and I agree, but without the side shields, and during a bright mid afternoon, they work great. You will notice the darkness later in the evening. That just means I can't wear them as much as I'd like to. But for everything else I do, they are the perfect glasses, look super cool, and the shields work wonders when your out long and don't want things sneaking around the sides. Great shades. On a side note, these are the first pair of glasses I've ever bought and was a firm believer in not using them, so these have definitely won me over.

Pleased but cautious. I am very happy with these glasses, so far. I am a little worried about how they will hold up. The clamps that hold the leather sides on is plastic, and tiny. Also there is a very soft rubber nose piece that worries me. Everything else is great. Be warned that they are heavy, but that does not bother me.

great glasses great glasses! they last about a year of daily wear at work. The weak link is the soft nose pieces that wear through. I work in the sun often on concrete slabs which reflect a lot of sunlight.
