Julbo, celebrating 125 years of advanced, protective optical technology, is honored to accept Outside Magazine’s 2013 Gear of the Year award for Julbo’s fully floating sunglasses, the Wave.
Regarded as an ultimate resource for product reviews, technology, news and tips, the Outside’s
summer Buyer’s Guide is organized by various sports and activities to
effortlessly lead outdoor enthusiasts to the best gear and advice in the
industry. Achieving a Gear of the Year accolade, in any category, is a
mark of the highest distinction.
“As an independent, family-owned business celebrating our 125th
anniversary, we are constantly seeking optical innovation and
performance perfection,” said Julbo USA’s CEO, Nick Yardley. “It is a
privilege to be recognized by Outside for such an acclaimed honor."
Designed
to meet the needs of those who play, work and live near the water, the
Julbo Wave sunglass provides the coverage, functionality and features
that every watersports enthusiast needs to protect their eyes against
the elements of sun and water. From flat water freshwater to massive
ocean swells, the Wave offers the highest level of protection while
navigating big waters.
According to the Outside tester, “The goggle-ish Wave are rapture for river runners, stand-up paddlers, and the rest of the watersports set.”
The
Wave’s polypro bi-injected wrap-around frame is floatable in the case
of dropping them in water. The lightweight frames also feature a
protection skirt, a removable flexible rim that eliminates water and
wind from coming in from all sides. The feature adds an extra degree of
protection and prevents views from being obstructed during volatile
water conditions. Furthermore, the Wave is available in Julbo’s
photochromic, polarized and hydrophobic Octopus
lens ($190). For a lower price point, the Wave is also available with
Julbo’s Spectron 3+ lens ($90) or the Polarized 3+ lens ($120).
