Maui Jim was founded in 1980 with a mission to create men's and women's sunglasses that could reduce the sun's harsh glare in coastal communities—but now they're popular wherever you call home. With their patented lens technology, Maui Jim sunglasses deliver optimal clarity and eye comfort in any outdoor conditions, and they come in fashionable and sporty styles for men and women, including aviators, wayfarers, wraparounds, and other distinctive profiles.
Using the most extreme color-boosting technology available, Maui Jim makes exceptional quality lenses that offer incredible clarity. These lenses also score high marks in eye protection. The American Skin Cancer Foundation awarded Maui Jim the Seal of Recommendation for implementing the highest level of UV protection: these superior quality sunglasses block 100 percent of UV rays from reaching the eyes and surrounding skin area.
Maui Jim lenses are designed with every detail in mind. First, a Clearshell treatment is applied, which acts as a primer for other applications. An anti-reflective treatment blocks glare from the back of the lens and special blue light filters reduce High-Energy Visible Radiation (HEV) rays. Lenses are also water and oil repellent, thanks to an additional coating created for wearers spending time in the sun and water. Some lenses come with a bi-gradient mirror treatment which reflects light from above and below—the lenses "squint" so you don't have to. Prescription-ready sunglasses frames from Maui Jim are tailored with lenses in your Rx to match your vision needs.
Anglers prefer Maui Jim lenses for fishing and saltwater scenarios. Polycarbonate lenses are the most impact resistant, perfect for protecting your eyes while you're exploring. Lens colors include grey, rose, bronze, and Maui HT™—a special hue that allows the highest usable light transmission while enhancing colors and details. All Maui Jim sunglasses are polarized with the brand's exclusive PolarizedPlus2® lens technology. Mirrored and gradient options are available, as well.
