I needed a pair of prescription sunnies for driving. I am a professional photographer and guide, taking clients on photo safaris through New Zealand. This means that I spend about 3 months a year in my Land Cruiser!

My MJ's are a essential bit of my kit that I love and highly recommend!

Pros. +4.5*
Hi
My name is Felipe, 29yrs, I'm from Puerto Rico, and trust my green eyes to a "Maui Jim - Kahuna 162".
This sun glasses are very stylish, they grip to the head very well, colors look much better while driving or at the comfort of my home, also this sun glass protects the eyes by not letting in the sun light strike your eyes from the side, I've had also noticed a great relief related to eye stress and headaches while driving 5hrs daily due to my job, on our sunny days here at the Caribbean. I would recommend Maui to my friends.

Cons. -0.5*
After a 1.5yr of usage, the polarization started to separate from the glass. It started from the borders and finally a thin straight line appeared from side to side affecting my visibility, it is just right in middle of the left lens. Ill be sending them back for repair.

I have just recently purchased the MAUI JIM / 162-02 KAHUNA pair of sunglasses and I must say MAUI JIM, you are the "KAHUNA" :)

I can only say to anyone who is looking for everything in a pair of sunglasses, then I urge you to visit a MAUI JIM dealer and "see" for yourself (no pun intended) haha!

You all have heard the saying "you get what you pay for" well, this is definitely true with MAUI JIM sunglasses. I can pretty much guarantee you won't own another pair after experiencing this line of product. :)

I had an accident where one of my pupils is permanently dialated. Being outside during the day can be very hard on my eyes and these are the only glasses I have found that allow me do be outside without hurting my eyes.

I have used these for everything from golf to snowmobiling and they are the most durable glasses I have ever owned.

If I'd been smart and bought these years ago, maybe cataract surgery would have been avoided. I'm a professional Landscape Photographer in Colorado and the high altitude, thinner air exacerbates the suns' damaging rays. Didn't want to spend the money when I could buy a $30 dollar pair. I'll never make that mistake again. I went to great lengths to protect my expensive Camera Lenses, but not my eyes. I can now think of more appropriate adjectives starting with STUPID!

Having owned and tried many pairs of sunglasses, Maui Jim has made me decide never to convert to any other brand again. The color brilliance produced by the lenses of my Maui Jims are unmatched by anything I've seen on the market today. Whenever others try on my Jims, they are shocked at how impressive environmental colors display. The last pair of sunglasses I will ever need! Thank you Maui Jim.

Third pair of Maui Jim's.....great glasses!!! These are by far the BEST sunglasses I've ever owned. I personally don't think there is another company that comes clese to the quality and workmanship that these glasses offer. They will cost you a little more but as the saying goes "you get what you pay for". Once you try them you won't look anywhere else for a pair of sunglasses. On a scale of 1-5 these rate a 10!!!!!

Its not my frist pair of MJ but will not be the last one as well. According to the purpose of use, certainly its great for the everyday, but if you have to saty outdoor, under all kinds of condition, specially as i have to long time fosued on a same object but had to observing surrounding for caution, there is nothing better than this.

I bought a pair of Maui Jim glasses six months ago, since then I take them anywhere I go because they are a terrific buy for their comfort and quality, are ideal for walking or driving, I´m very happy with them and that's why I always recommend to my friends to buy a pair of Maui Jim's

Good Optics, however too heavy in the glass. Would get the poly lens next time. Also had a problem with the temples working loose.
