Julbo

ABOUT

1888
Morez in the valley of the French eyewear industry, a Jura native launched a brand which would not yet be called Julbo, but almost… thanks to the name of its founder, Jules Baud. He started his business designing optical eyewear with one idea in mind: innovation. in the early 20th century, at the request of Chamonix crystal hunters wanting to protect their eyes in the mountains, he designed the first «Cristalliers» sunglasses, marking the start of Julbo’s optical sun protection story.

1970
Julbo went much further than simply naming its products after famous summits such as Everest, Makalu and Annapurna. it developed and tested them by taking them up the 8000ers including Everest, Makalu, K2, Gasherbrum ii, Broad Peak and Nanga Parbat on the face of its technical adviser, yannick Seigneur.

2000
In this multisport era Julbo attacked all fronts and all the elements. it supported Mike Horn on his incredible epic journeys around the world. On track and trail, following the explosion of outdoor sports such as trail running and mountain biking, if it was moving Julbo was there, with products perfectly adapted to each sport
