Sonnenschutz

Whether as a promotional gift from the last Movienight or a classy item from a specialist store; whether in bright orange or with modern patterns; made of polyester, cotton or merino wool: everyone who does any kind of outdoor sport knows buffs or collects countless ones in their drawer, of which they only use their favorite ones. But the possible uses go far beyond the classic neck warmer.

Sun cream in winter? Sounds exaggerated - until your skin disagrees. Why do we get sunburnt more quickly in the snow and when was sun cream even invented?

April does what it wants - and we ski tourers are at a loss in front of the closet. Bright sunshine at the parking lot, an icy north föhn on the ridge and the obligatory snowstorm just in time for the summit champagne. If you don't fancy the constant switching between beanie and baseball cap, there is a solution that is as simple as it is ingenious: the cap with integrated ear protection.

It's the weekend, the mountain is calling - and the same question arises as always: which glasses should I take with me? Classic sunglasses for bright skies - Blue Bird, as we love it - darken so much in flat light or whiteout that you can barely make out the contours. Glasses for bad weather, on the other hand, are so blinding in good weather that they hurt. So how practical it would be to have a single pair of glasses that automatically adapt to all light and weather conditions!

French glacier eyewear specialists Julbo have long been known for the "classic" design of their aviator-style glasses with leather rims. At some point, a "sportier" style was added and the range was expanded into the cycling and lifestyle sector.
