Julbo Motion Review

June 13th, 2009 by Brian Mullin



Bottom Line
I really like the Julbo Motions, they are comfortable, stay put, are lightweight, have exceptional clarity, offer a great panoramic view and the photochromic are nice in varying conditions. The photochromic and anti-fog are 2 fantastic highlights of the lens. The ear loops and the nose bridge are unique and innovative, and only time will tell how they will keep functioning. I sometimes forget that I am wearing them, which is a sure sign of a great pair of sunglasses (or any apparel product). Outside of the difficulty of altering the length of the elastic ear loop, all the other issues were very minor quibbles.

Strengths
-Photochromic
-Lightweight
-Comfortable
-Clarity
-Anti-Fog coating
-Panoramic view
-Forget you are wearing sunglasses

Weaknesses
-Elastic loops may cause ear irritation
-Nose piece may cause irritation
-Elastic loops are difficult to adjust

Value Rating: 3.5 Flamin’ Chili Peppers

    UPDATE: I Just found out that Julbo has currently discontinued this model, it is unknown if the model will later return into their sunglasses line?

    I don’t think it will return to their lineup. When I tried to find them, I was told they they were discontinued due to serious durability issues.
