SUMMER ESSENTIALS

Rock climbers’ favourite season is here and with it comes a need for hot weather-specific gear. From lightweight alpine layers to sporty shirts for the crag and other random summer gear, here are a few things that can make your summer sessions more enjoyable. The new Julbo Aero is one of the best pair of sunglasses designed with climbers in mind this year. They come with Zebra or Zebra Light photochromic lenses that allow for a wide and clear field of vision. With a clever suspended lens construction increases ventilation on those sweat-inducing pitches; the Air Link temples keep the shades in position even on steep pitches.
