Maui Jim Sunglasses
Shade-y Vision
"Nalu" sunglasses in Espresso |
Cool, dark, handsome and strong—Maui Jim has all the right qualities. The sunglass brand was born twenty-some years ago on the beaches of its namesake island, and has since established itself as one of the leading makers of polarized sunglasses. Offering specialized technology and superior protection against the sun's rays, Maui Jim shades are favored by sports enthusiasts as well as those who simply enjoy the outdoors. For us, the sunglasses wear well for the summertime and vacations to sunny destinations.

"Kukuna" sunglasses |
With a wide selection of styles, it's easy to find just the right frame. Maui Jim's website even has a feature that allows you to browse styles by face shape. We liked "Nalu" and "Kukuna," two of Maui Jim's newest styles. Nalu features a more fashion-forward wraparound frame, constructed from durable Alpacca (a combination of sterling silver and nickel), while Kukuna has classic metal temples crafted from a titanium-based alloy.
Both styles are armed with PolarizedPlus2 technology, which eliminates glare and boosts colors. Three rare earth elements in the lenses maximize the transmission of colors, so you'll be able to see the brilliant blue of the waters on your island vacation. We found just one drawback with the sunglasses, which is a slight distortion of screens on computer monitors and cell phones. But really, when you're out in the sun or vacationing, the Blackberry should be tossed aside.
