Maui Jim Sunglasses

How are Maui Jim Sunglasses Different?

As a company Maui Jim’s aim was to protect the eyes without compromising colours. Their key to providing excellent protection is the polarising technology that goes into the making of the lens. Unlike other popular brands, the lenses are polarised on both the front and back surfaces, they also come in a wide range of prescriptions offering an elite combination that few can match. Maui Jim sunglasses are available with both prescription and non-prescription lenses, in a variety of tint colours, lens materials, designs and weights.

The Maui Jim brand is the fastest growing premium sunglasses maker in the world. Their lens technology combats glare and harmful UV rays without sacrificing the vividness of colours. The company started life in 1980 based on a beach in Lahaina, Hawaii. They were purchased by Hester Enterprises in 1991 and with staggering increases in sales launched from the small Hawaiian Island into the world market. These days, Maui Jim maintains their position at the forefront of optical technology with a state-of-the-art surfacing lab that ensures consistent precision and quality and has won numerous industry awards for their lens technology.

Maui Jim Sports Sunglasses

Maui Jim sunglasses are suitable for all different types of sports, and are particularly popular for water sports due to the lenses being polarised on both the front and back surfaces. Ideal on beaches, beside pools, camping trips, hiking, or on long journeys in the car, extremely versatile and not solely for sports lovers, perfect for anyone who enjoys the outdoors whilst wanting to look good.

Maui Jim Sunglasses – Optimal Visual Clarity

Maui Jim Sunglasses fans universally praise the comfort and quality especially emphasising the technology and tints which don’t strain their eyes whilst still providing clarity of vision making them feel as though they are not wearing any glasses. Another benefit often noted by customers is the peripheral protection ensured by designing the lenses to wrap around the face. Overall fans agree that these sunglasses offer great quality, durability and optimum protection without sacrificing visual clarity.

Maui Jim Sunglasses – Lens Options

Maui Jim Sunglasses are available in either single vision or multifocal prescriptions with three lens options: Neutral Grey, Bronze, and Rose which are all excellent for everyday wear whilst still offering complete glare protection in all conditions. Each lens tint is useful for different levels of glare; Neutral Grey for the brightest sunlight and the highest glare reduction. Bronze is for glare reduction and added contrast on overcast or foggy days, and Rose offers the sharpest contrast and image resolution.
