Neutral Grey: Perfect for especially bright, direct sunlight. Offers rich color and contrast along with the highest available light production, unlike ordinary grey lenses that flatten light evenly across the spectrum.
HCL® Bronze: For everyday variable conditions, from full sun to overcast. Provides excellent contrast. Great if you love a warm, subtle bronze tint.
Maui HT™: High-Transmission for times when most lenses would be too dark — sharper contrast and more vibrant color for early morning, late afternoon and foggy days. Heightens contrast and depth of field so that low light is perceived with new vibrancy.
PolarizedPlus®2: In every pair of Maui Jims you’ll find our patented, color-infused lens technology that wipes out 99.9% of glare, 100% of harmful UV and boosts color via specially designed lens treatments. So your view is clearer, with crisper contrast and amazing brilliance.
Maui Evolution®: When you need an everyday lens for your active life, look to the lens that fuses the best properties of SuperThin glass and polycarbonate. Extremely lightweight. Scratch- and impact-resistant. Patented lens treatments bring the world’s true colors to life. With the high-performance optics you need to keep up with your outdoor sports.
CLEARSHELL® Scratch Coating: A proprietary, silicone-based hard coat that protects your lenses. Glass is naturally scratch-resistant but Maui Evolution and polycarbonate lenses perform better longer with the added durability of our optically correct Clearshell. Applied to front and back of the lens.

Review by: steph -
I have bought at least 7 pairs of Maui Jim sunglasses. I buy them strictly for their quality and visual appeal. When broken, I have had no problem with a satisfactory solution from warranty shop. You get what you pay for and I want good stuff for my money. Maui Jim...keep delivering.

Awesome all around glasses
Review by: RyGuy -
This is my second pair of Jims. I have always been extremely satisfied with the lenses and superior craftsmanship but I was disappointed with my last pair of Pali's as they just won't stay on my face despite adjustments. Because of this I can't wear them when sweating or playing any sports - bummer. I bought these Canoes with that problem in mind but I could not be more satisfied. Excellent lenses and craftsmanship and absolutely no problems staying on my face when playing volleyball etc... I find it difficult to wear any of my others shades now that I have these Canoes.

How Good Are Those Canoes ?
Review by: TheDigitMan -
I picked up a pair of tortoise shell Canoes on Waikiki Beach from Outrigger on the Beach for a really good price from a very pretty sales assistant during the Christmas break. These sunnies arent good - they're superb. Keep up the good work MJ

Great quality & comfort
Review by: Bandit -
My second pair of MJ's, these new "Canoes" are super comfortable. I tried on several other makes but the best fit was these and I was quite happy as very satisfied with my first pair. The lenses are super clear. They are Japanese made which ensures best quality construction.

They did it again!
Review by: Matty257 -
So, my pair of Ka'anapalis broke at the nose bridge, which was a big bummer, because then I only had old pairs of Oakleys to wear. Obviously being an emergency, I ran to my local Sunglass Hut. I had seen the e-mails of the debut of the new HT lenses, and gave these a try while I was in the store. I was so blown away by the optical quality of these Evolution + HT lenses, I had to buy them. I didn't think anything could compare to the comfort of my Ka'anapalis, but these are just a comfortable, just in a different way. Styling is superb and the lenses, again, are amazing. To make things even better, Sunglass Hut, being the awesome retailer and partner that they are, REPLACED my broken Ka'anapalis for free, and I walked out with 2 new pairs of Mauis. Well done, guys! I used to be a die-hard Oakley guy, but I am an unabashed and complete convert now!!

Canoes
Review by: CrazyCanuck -
This is my second pair of Maui Jim glasses and I know I will enjoy wearing these new Canoes as much as my old ones. The little nose grippers on these ones make a huge difference in allowing the glasses to stay put during activitys.

Best Mauis Yet
Review by: cjmac -
I have purchased 5 different pairs of Maui Jims for myself and 4 for my wife over the past 6 years and I have to say that they keep getting better. I have a pair for almost any occasion. My eyes are extremely important to my career so I take my eyesight very seriously. That being said, I love my new canoes. They are very comfortable around my face and the polarized lenses offer incredible vision and protection. The quality is once again incredible. Thank you Maui Jim for always striving for perfection and top quality. You have us as customers for life!!!!

Best Sunglasses
Review by: GCWeb -
My wife and I got great reviews of Maui Jim sunglasses from sunglasses outlets. On our 2nd anniversary we travelled to the Bahamas and in transit in NJ, we purchased our first Maui Jim sunglasses. They were great in the Bahamas and we use them daily in our country, Trinidad and Tobago. We are completely satisfied!
