For most skiing this system works perfectly but there are some situations where it is less then ideal.
This happens when there becomes a difference in temperature behind the lens and in front of it.
It’s not just in the backcountry that it is an issue.
Well thanks to the new Julbo Areospace such a product now exists.
The system is very simple to use and can be done in gloves and mittens.
The mechanism is both easy to move and solid when the lens is pulled out.
you’re free to easily ski with the lens pulled forward and the mechanism will hold.
By pulling the lens forward you are able to get good airflow which helps regulate the temperatures really well.
They would be great for mid winter tours were you would want some protection but still need good airflow.
The fit is described as Extra large but I would say they are more a mid to large size.
The field of view is excellent but they don’t feel large and weighty.
They fitted my smaller face well but would suit a more mid to large face.
There are 7 different color options with the 4 different lenses Julbo offer.
I have tried both the Snow Tiger, a darker lens for clear days and the Zebra.
The Zebra is a slightly lighter lens and did offer great clarity on lower light days.
In reality I have found I move the lens all the time.
Its so nice to be able to cool off at any point you want.
If you overheat regularly skiing or you often struggle with foggy lenses these may be the goggles for you.
If you tour regularly and want something that offers more protection then sunglasses these are definitely worth a look.
The design is very simple and really does work.
Check them out you wont regret it.
