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 Rose®: For everyday variable conditions, from full sun to overcast. The highest contrast available – excellent for fast moving sports. Provides a subtle rose 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.

Review by: WendyS -
My sister owns 5 pairs and I got these as a gift! Excellent chioce! Light weight; comfort factor is excellent! UV rays are not a factor; superb polarization. Incredible product for any type of activity or casual use. I absolutely love them! Great choice sister; thank you!

Fragile design
Review by: Fulton -
I am a long time MJ wearer. This particular style is extremely fragile where the lens connects to the nose piece. This model has broken twice while cleaning the lenses. The first time it was taken care of by the company and hopefully this time also. If you buy this model be very careful while cleaning.

Best Sunglasses Ever!
Review by: Lindsey -
I bought these sunglasses back in the summer of 2007 and just recently broke an arm piece. I called the company and they are able to repair the glass for just a $10 processing fee!
These glasses are so lightweight and comfortable. The nose piece is excellent and the lenses curve to block the sunlight from the side. I use them for everything; including softball, bike riding, wood gathering, and driving.
Before realizing I could get my sunglasses repaired I was in the market for a pair of Oakley sunglasses but after trying multiple pairs on I could not find a pair that met the quality of my Maui Jims. I even considered buying my same pair back, new.(Posted on 11/28/12)

My Makaha
Review by: JM13 -
Took the advice in the shop and bought my Makaha 1.5 year ago on our holiday in San Francisco.
Perfect choice! The glasses are weightless, protect the eyes like no other brand and looks are fine!
My wife bought on my recommendation also MJ and is very happy with them(Posted on 11/28/12)

Will wait for repair
Review by: noidea -
I have had them for a few months now and really like them.
One thing I have to see if they will repair the broken nose piece and how fast.
This will determine what a future review will be(Posted on 11/28/12)

Durable and Functional
Review by: Coach1245 -
I was skeptical about buying a semiframe pair of sunglasses because I am very rough on them. However, they have been very durable and provide great protection and vision outdoors. The visual clarity and polarization was my initial reason for purchase. If these ever wear out, I will buy another pair.

Not pleased
Review by: JoeBaltimore -
I own three pair of MJs and this was by far the poorest quality of lenses. I had only owned the glasses for about two months and I had gotten several scratches in the lenses. The other MJs I own I have never had this issue.

Super Comfort
Review by: OnTheBeach -
I really enjoy my Maui Jim Makaha's. They are very comfortable, in fact at times I forget I have them on. I was also blown away by the service when I lost one of the nose pieces that fit on the bridge and when I called to get a replacement it was "no problem, let us send you out a pair free of charge in the mail today" Wow! Quality and Service....
