MAUI JIM SUNGLASSES

Maui Jim sunglasses are, in our opinion the best sunglasses you can buy, for the following reasons

1. GLARE REDUCTION. Maui Jim's proprietary PolarizedPlus®2 technology uses up to 9 layers of protection built into each lens. Their polarizing technology reduces 99.9 percent of harmful glare and is the most advanced polarization available to reduce glare from above, below and behind each lens. This filter also blocks glare from any flat, smooth, or shiny surface, which makes it possible to see below the surface of water. Anti-reflective treatments are specifically designed to eliminate eye fatigue. collage

Additionally, Maui Jim's UV ray reduction is unparalleled, cutting 100 percent of UVA and UVB rays. Unique, bi-gradient mirror technology adds protection from light through the top and bottom of each lens – basically, the sunglasses squint for you, but without creating excessive reflection. Maui Jim also offer MauiGradient™ lenses that feature single gradient mirror protection. Only Maui Jim's PolarizedPlus®2 technology delivers a higher level of contrast and depth perception in a variety of lens colours for varying conditions.

2. TRUE COLORS. Maui Jim's proprietary polarization, PolarizedPlus®2, not only reduces glare, but produces true, vivid colours. With Maui Jim lenses, blues are bluer. Greens are more vivid. Reds are vibrant. Yellows pop. And whites are true. How? Maui Jim uses three rare earth elements on its lenses which, when combined with the glare-protecting elements of each lens, result in significantly truer colours.

unretouched3. REPEL WATER, DIRT AND SMUDGES. Maui Jim's unique waterproof and oleophobic coatings repel water and grease, and make smudges and fingerprints easier to wipe away – both on the inside and outside of the lenses. Clearshell® scratch-resistant technology for Maui Evolution® and Polycarbonate lenses helps them perform better for longer – which means clearer sight. Their SuperThin glass is durable, scratch-resistant and 20 percent thinner and lighter than standard laminated glass lenses.

4. A CHOICE OF LENSES DEPENDING ON USE. Maui Jim offers four lens colour options depending on light and conditions:

Neutral Grey offers the highest level of light reduction for bright, sunny days.

HCL® Bronze enhances contrast in variable conditions. For example, bronze lenses are good for days when puffy clouds occasionally float over. They are also great for fishing in brackish water because they enhance contrast in murky conditions.

Maui Rose is designed for the highest contrast for everyday conditions. It's good for fast-moving sports.

Maui HT® (High Transmission) is the lens for when most lenses would be too dark. They are perfect for early morning or late afternoon, foggy conditions or when light conditions are extremely changeable. With 25 percent visible light transmission and 75 percent absorption, Maui Jim's High Transmission lenses are a mellow palm shade. The Maui HT colour option provides greater visibility even as it boosts color, contrast and depth of field.
