Now the fastest growing premium polarized sunglass maker in the world, Maui Jim got its start in 1980 as a small company selling sunglasses on the beach in Lahaina, Hawaii. Seeing a need in the market for technology that could combat intense glare and harmful UV while bringing the brilliant colors of the island to life, their fledgling company engineered the revolutionary PolarizedPlus® lens.
The Maui Jim Guardrail Sunglasses are made with PolarizedPlus 2 Technology which block glare and UV from all angles, manage blue light, and boost color, clarity and contrast. Proprietary MauiGradient Lenses allow an appropriate amount of light to be filtered through certain areas while less in places where protection is paramount. Along with Maui Evolution lenses fuse the best qualities of glass and polycarbonate lenses. Offering superior optics, scratch resistance, and impact resistance in a lightweight high-index package, Maui Evolution enhances color with a patented lens treatment.
