Julbo

When Jules Baud founded his company in 1888 in the small town of Morez in the French Jura, he initially produced sunglasses. In 1950, when the company had already been specializing in the production of sunglasses for several years, Julbo created a revolutionary success with the development of the Vermont model. The "glacier goggles" paved the way for numerous stellar moments for mountain sports enthusiasts on their way to the world's highest peaks. The legendary glacier glasses are extremely popular with alpinists and rock stars alike and are now a real collector's item. For Julbo, this was the first step towards consistently specializing in optical sun protection solutions for high-risk environments with high levels of sun and uv radiation. The perfect product for every discipline! Julbo has a wide range of high-tech lenses (Zebra, Zebra Light, Octopus, Cameleon, Falcon) to optimally meet all outdoor requirements. In addition to the outdoor range, Julbo has developed special children's glasses and polarized glasses for water sports enthusiasts. Julbo revolutionizes the sunglasses market with the development of the RX Trem product range, for which Julbo receives the Silmo d'Or. Its 100% customized corrective sports sunglasses now enable spectacle wearers to practice their sport without any restrictions. Thanks to its expertise in the manufacture of injection-moulded plastic frames, Julbo has also specialized in the production of prescription eyewear in recent years. Julbo consolidates its position by offering innovative frames with highly technical lenses. The result of continuous development is to offer everyone the solution best suited to their purpose and facial morphology for optimum vision and perfect protection. This philosophy has enabled Julbo to establish itself internationally as an innovative sunglasses brand. Julbo is represented in over 55 countries and employs 250 salespeople who travel the world. Two thirds of the entire production is now destined for export to all men. And the fact that high functionality, quality and design are very good sales arguments in the long term is proven not least by the successful last few years.
