Millenium

Review on the first pair of Jumbo glasses I have ever bought.

I never ever leave reviews. But I must do so now. So, I am not an extreme mountain climber or any sort of outdoorsmen. I am an Engineer who does a ton of work at tower sites. These tower sites are high up on a mountain with no trees around for shade. I bought the Millennium Reactive glasses " Non RX" model. They transition between a 2 up to 4 in terms of darkness. I was worried the 4 would be too dark for driving. For myself no, not really. Its actually hard to determine the difference. I wear these 10 to 12 hours a day with out taking them off. They are comfortable, they provide added protection with side shields. that was something I needed badly. I wear them inside of Transmitter buildings where the lighting is not the best. And you would think that is where you would take them off, right? Actually, no, not for myself. They provide very good clarity when I am inside of a building working on something. I have worn these driving in Fog, driving in Rain, driving in Sun and soon to be driving in snow. The clarity of these outperform any other brand I have had in the past. The clarity FOR ME, really brightens up the foggy and rainy days, improved my distance of vision. I honestly am so beyond happy with these that I hope Julbo do not stop making the Millennium as I will buy another pair JUST IN CASE. They do not really have any parts for these. So, buy a second pair as a backup if you are planning on wearing these daily at long intervals. This review is STRICTLY my OWN personal testing and using. My experience could be WAY different than yours. Just know this. These are high quality glasses that are meant for protecting your vision and to preform in rough conditions. Yup, I LOVE them!!

Great Lenses, Minor Fit and Finish Issues

I picked these up mainly for golfing. I have problems with light coming in around the sides and reflecting off the back of the lenses and decided to give glacier glasses a try. The good: they look great and the lenses are among the best I’ve used. Great clarity and very quick transition. The bad: there is a minor finish issue with the side shields. There is mold flash that is sharp and cuts the skin under my eyes. I’ve tried a fine file to remove it but it still sharp.

Lightweight and grippy!

It was a little too big for me - but that's my face's fault, not the shades'. Otherwise, stayed on my face really well and the lightweight nature made it really great for all-around and everyday use.
