When it comes to all-around sunglasses you want something with classic styling and performance lenses that can work in any setting. Julbo’s answer to that is “The Streets” sunglasses that we are reviewing here which combine classic styling with performance features. Retail price for the sunglasses ranges from $ with standard Spectron lenses up to $ when it is optioned with the REACTIV photo chromic lenses. Regardless of lens choice, the sunglasses feature a lightweight bio-sourced Rilsan frame and have 100% UV protection. The Streets are also designed to stay in place with Grip Tech temples and convenient auto-lock hinges.
Visually, the Julbo Streets sunglasses have a classic lifestyle design with two piece lens design. The frame design has a classic shape with smooth corners and straight temple arms. These have a medium coverage with smooth corners that looks great in any setting. Julbo currently offers the sunglasses in four different frame options with specific lenses: black, translucent black, translucent gray and tortoise brown which we have here. The tortoise brown frames are the classic semi-transparent design with brown and tan coloring that pops in the sunlight. The frame material is a bio-sourced Rilsan which is lighter and stronger than plastic frames. Branding is limited to Julbo logos on the temples with black accents.
Julbo offers the sunglasses in quite a few options from polarized Spectron options to the photochromic REACTIV 1-3 version. We have the Spectron 3 Polarized lens which has a brown base color and 12% VLT which is category 3 level filtering. While we don’t recommend polarized lenses for cycling, it’s a great option for driving, water related activities and other sports. The brown base tint works well in urban environments where it adds contrast to roads to see debris or potholes. As with all Julbo sunglasses, the Spectron lens has great clarity with a uniform finish that helps enhance colors and protect against the harsh sun...
