Julbo ski goggles: guide to making the right choice

Choosing the right ski goggles enhances comfort and safety. This guide helps you understand the types of lenses, essential criteria, and how to adapt your choice to your practice.

Types of goggles

• Photochromic: They automatically adapt to brightness. Ideal if you frequently change conditions (fog, sun, cloudy day).
• Polarized: Reduce glare on snow and increase contrast. Useful in bright sunlight and on groomed trails.

Choosing criteria

• Fit: foam, face shape, and comfort. The goggles should contour to the face without pressure points.
• UV protection and light transmission (VLT): check for 100% UV protection and VLT ratings suitable for your conditions.
• Helmet compatibility: the goggle-helmet interface should be seamless to prevent cold air entry. Check the Julbo ski helmet selection for a safe and comfortable set.
• Compatibility with prescription glasses: some OTG (over the glasses) models allow wearing prescription glasses underneath.
• Ventilation and anti-fog: prioritize good ventilation and an anti-fog treatment for intense days.
• Interchangeable lenses: convenient for adapting the goggles to the weather.

Tips based on your practice

• Trail: goggles with a good field of vision and polarized or photochromic lenses for versatility.
• Freeride: wide field of vision, thick foam, photochromic lenses for light variations.
• Hiking / ski touring: lightweight, ventilated, and photochromic lenses for ascent and descent.
• Versatile: goggles with interchangeable lenses cover most situations.

If you practice other sports, you can also buy Julbo glasses for cycling.

Advantages of photochromic goggles

• Automatic adaptation to light without changing goggles.
• Better visibility in rapid transitions (tree tunnels, clouds).
• Reduction in the number of accessories to carry.
