The Jublo Brand

The 120-year-old Julbo brand is built on a rich history in alpine-mountaineering, high-altitude and glacier exploration optics. Including those using prescription eyewear, they have been at the forefront of optical and action sports equipment for the mainstream athlete. From its headquarters high in the Jura Mountains of France, where the company was founded in 1888, three generations have directed Julbo’s evolution from a manufacturer of corrective lenses to a global producer of protective eyewear for all active outdoor pursuits including high mountain sunglasses.

Jules Baud, the founder of Julbo began when Crystal hunters, those earning a living by looking for crystals, asked Baud to develop sunglasses to help them better explore the Chamonix Valley. This mountaineering profession has existed since prehistoric times, but it was innovators like Baud who helped set the path for modern mountaineering tech with features like side shields, a horseshoe shape, and lenses made from tinted materials like smoky quartz.

Today, Julbo is an emerging multi-sport eyewear company that makes Jublo glasses for elite outdoor athletes as well as mainstream users. Julbo is fully committed to creating a line of Julbo sunglasses or goggles with world-renowned optical quality melded with a bold sense of style.

Julbo has also developed a line of affordable, durable, 100-percent UV protective sunglasses for children. Julbo applies the same technology and innovation to its children’s line that it uses to make eyewear for mountain climbers, sailors, and other athletes.
