Montebianco 2 Reactiv 2-4 Polarized Sunglasses

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Adaptable protection with a refined fit — a strong performer for long, sun-soaked days above the treeline.

Julbo says: 

MONTEBIANCO 2 is the perfect ally for admiring stunning landscapes. The lines of this now iconic Julbo model have been completely redefined for a more contemporary look showcasing its dynamic sporting credentials. In terms of comfort, the sunglasses have new Grip Tech temples and a non-slip bridge making them a benchmark model for the mountains. And you can still count on their protective design and removable side shields for safe exploration of new horizons at altitude.

Our Verdict

The Julbo Montebianco 2 Reactiv 2-4 Polarised sunglasses offer exactly the sort of clarity and comfort I look for when spending hours in high, bright terrain. The photochromic lenses transition from category 2 to 4 (VLT 5–20%), and I’ve found the polarisation especially helpful in reducing glare off snow and rock. 

At 30g, they’re light enough for extended wear, and the updated Grip Tech arms and nose bridge sit securely without pressure points. The side shields offer solid coverage from the sides, though they’re removable if you want to streamline things — I’ve only found them a little fiddly when adjusting gear mid-movement. Ventilation is decent, and I’ve had no fogging even on sweaty climbs.
