Julbo Camino Spectron 3 CF Sunglasses

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

A great all-rounder balancing cost, style and performance. The Camino Spec 3 are an awesome pair of sunglasses for varying conditions and  a wide range of activities.

Julbo says

Letting your footsteps and eyes lead you, whether its walking to Compostela, taking the legendary Stevenson Trail or trekking around Mont Blanc… Long-distance trails offer freedom and slow pleasures, with the focus firmly on discovery and observation. Julbo has developed an essential, light and functional piece of kit for trekkers. Removeable Sideshields offer flexible protection. A variety of Spectron lens options offer faultless protection for the brightest days so you can go all the way.

Our Verdict

Julbo’s Camino Spectron 3 CF Sunglasses have a pretty simple but very effective frame that suits a wide range of outdoor activities. The simple, curved design means the glasses sit comfortably and grip naturally – that being said they are probably not a good choice for high impact sports such as mountain biking as there is no additional grip from silicon strips. The arms have removable side shields, for when you need that extra protection, and have small holes on the end of each arm that allow you to add a cord attachment. 

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. They have a great effect on bringing out colours and bright and partially cloudy days, or a good summers day here in the UK!
