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.
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.
Polycarbonate: When durability and protection against shattering are the priority, choose a lens that stands up to your most intense activities. Scratch- and impact-resistant. Injection molded for crisp optics. With patented lens treatments that infuse your view with vivid color. Your lightest choice for long days in the sun.
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.

Love them
Review by: BPal -
Fit Durability Style Value Purchased these 3 years ago and have loved them ever since. These glasses are tough can take a beating and look great doing everything. Lenses are superb had one problem when I lost a rubber nose piece called Maui Jim and they shipped one out to me free of charge. Great customer service!!!

Pleasant surprise
Review by: Jim in CA -
Style Value Fit Durability Got gloss black / neutral gray as service award from work. I have a hard time finding a sunglass style that looks good (or at least acceptable) on me as I have a round face (full cheeks). But, Maui Jim Kanaha actually works on me!
The Kanaha style works great if you have a round head and face.
I wish they were less expensive as I want to get another pair as back-up.(Posted on 4/7/13)

Love these glasses
Review by: Jim -
Fit Durability Style Value Only thing I can say bad about these glasses is after 2 yrs. the nose pieces disintegrated. EASY FIX! Called MJ and was sent replacements free of charge. And only took 3 days to get them. Awesome customer service. Highly reccommend them.

Style Value Fit Durability I am on my 3rd pair of Kanaha 409's I lost my first one in Italy and replaced them as soon as I got home. They are so light and handsome. I love wearing them. I won the Maui Jim holiday giveaway contest and selected a pair of BIG BEACH in burgandy. They are more wraparound which I think will be great for golfing.

Great sunglasses! They are lightweight and have excellent lenses! I have a few pair of other brand sunglasses and these are the best of all of them! I would highly recommend these to anyone.

I've had these glasses for a few years now and love them. My brother and sister-in-law bought similar pairs because they liked mine so much. They are so light it barely feels like you're wearing anything.

Review by: LoveMyMJsunglasses -
I'm on my 3rd pair of Maui Jims in 5 years. I just love these glasses and the lens technology so much that I had to have more styles. I ended up giving my sister my first pair when I bought my 3rd because I knew she'd love them too! The grey lens is perfect for the brightest days here in Arizona. I've also bought the tortoise style in this model with the bronze lens for less bright days and for winter use in Arizona. They are so lightweight, and I just can't go wrong with the lens technology with my sensitive eyes! Even when I severely scratched my lens on a pair outside of warranty--it was repaired within a week for a very low cost!! You just can't go wrong with MJ!

can't be without them
Review by: Rocky -
The Kanaha's are the best sunglasses that I have ever worn. I wear them when driving,hiking, paddling my stand up surfboard and whenever I'm outside in the daylight hours.
I love the HCL lenses. They are great in the bright sun but you can also continue wearing them when it's getting closer to dark.
The frames are very light so they work perfectly with an active lifestyle.(Posted on 11/28/12)
