Description

The biggest Faster, with a fixed, dark lens. You see far to the sides and because there is no frame around it, the glasses stay light and airy.

The Spectron HD 3 lens is category 3 and always stays equally dark. You notice that on open terrain in bright sun, for example on a ridge or along the coast, where you don't want to squint. In the forest or at dusk it is too dark.

Not sure? Choose the Spectron HD if you mainly run in sun and don't want the lens to change tint. Want one pair for shade and sun, then the Faster XL Reactiv suits better. If a regular sports frame doesn't reach your temples, the XL is the right size.

Wide face and lots of sun: this is your Faster.

Why Julbo?

You start in the dark, run through a shady forest and an hour later you're on a bare ridge in full sun. One pair of glasses that handles all of that saves a lot of hassle. That's exactly why we carry Julbo at Trail.NL.

Julbo makes sports glasses for runners, cyclists and mountain athletes. Best known are the photochromic Reactiv lenses and the light, frameless models you barely feel at high pace. For the mountains there are wider glasses with side shields.

For us, Julbo is above all a brand that knows what mountain light does to your eyes: photochromic lenses, a stable fit and more than 130 years of experience with eyewear.

Frequently asked questions

What does category 3 mean?

Category 3 is a dark lens for bright sun. It lets through about 15% of visible light and is too dark for forest or dusk.

Is the XL too big for me?

The XL is meant for wide faces or anyone who wants a lot of coverage. If it sticks out at the sides or slips down, choose the Faster L.

Can I wear the glasses with a helmet?

Yes, the thin, flexible temples are made to be worn with a cycling helmet.
