Julbo Renegade Spectron 3 CF Polarized Sunglasses

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

The Renegade sunglasses look great and perform well too. The casual style adds versatility but a quality lens and good grip allow them to work well for hiking, riding and a range of other activities.

Julbo says

Blasting down a single track followed by lunch on the terrace? Same sunglasses, same style and same protection. Julbo has created Renegade, at home in daily life on any type of terrain. Its resolutely urban look disguises a keen appetite for adventure: incredible grip, wide angle of vision and photochromic Reactiv lenses. A true work of art!

Our Verdict

Julbo’s Renegade Spectron 3 CF Polarized Sunglasses are a great example of cross over style. They simple, slick frame design looks great for casual wear but the performance lens coupled with additional grips along the arms and on the bridge of the nose mean that these glasses stay in place when things get more intense. They are the glasses that you get most use out of as they can do it all and never really look out of place.

These come with Cat. 3 lenses which provide, in my opinion, the best vision for conditions you are most likely to find in the UK. The coloured coating on the glasses does not reflect the colours you see through them with this CF (colour flash) bringing a bit more style to the design. They have a great effect on bringing out colours and bright and partially cloudy days, or a good summers day here in the UK!
