Lightweight and good price
I used this in Mt Shasta this September and it worked well for me! We started summit attempt at 3am, I stashed my Julbo Sherpa in the napoleon pocket of my jacket and when the sun starts to come out, just pulled it out and wear it. It feels like nothing when you're wearing it. It really protects your eyes against the sun. Side shields are very effective and it's removable, can be use around town. Overall, good buy.

Light weight and very flexible make the Sherpa very versitile for all purpose use. This is my 2nd style of Julbo glasses that I use in Afghanistan, and they are great. They are great for the $$ and all you will need..

Great mountain / beach glasses.
The Sherpa's have what you need in the mountains, with their dark lens and side guards. They are comfortable across the nose and around the ears. The wrap-around ear piece grips without pinching or pulling, and will stay on when you are playing on the beach. I've worn mine on a jet ski many times ( with a cord just in case ) and not lost a pair. Summary, great performance at a reasonable price. I keep a spare in each vehicle, ski bag, and backpack.

Great Sunglsses.... Great Price.
Used these glasses last year to climb Mt Rainier and will be using them again in July to try again.

Absolute best value, nothing more expensive is needed.
No need to spend more $$ anywhere, this is all you need. Functional, affordable . . . all mountaineering products should follow suit making excellent, quality products like this and turn away from ridiculous mark-ups that we see almost everywhere.
