Love these!

8 months ago

I love these new glasses. I have been wearing Voyagers for 20 years until the lenses got shattered and Maui Jim's doesn't offer replacement lenses. These are very similar in size and style to Voyagers if anyone is looking to replace their Voyagers.

Light weight and stylish

2 years ago

I like the light weight and great coverage of these glasses. I also love the blue color of the lenses. For super glare or bright days the darker lenses would be better for me but for overall wearability, these check a lot of boxes.

My new Maui’s

3 years ago

So very pleased with my purchase of these sunglasses. The fit is snug the lightweight of frame is so comfortable. The blue lens makes the vision very clear. I’m so happy to have made the decision to purchase my Maui Jim’s.

Kaiwi Channel

3 years ago

Love them! I’ve owned multiple pairs of Maui Jim’s over the years and will always choose them over any other brand. My wife and I have other top rated sunglass brands sitting around the house, but each time we need a pair as we run out the door, it’s always a pair of Maui Jim’s. Like the old credit card commercial tag line, “Don’t leave home without it.” My newest pair is the Kaiwi Channel model and they have truly lived up to my expectations, as well as the reviews I read while making my decision to purchase. You know a great thing when you find it — these are it!

These are my favorite pair of wrap Maui’s.. I get compliments all the time and the clarity of the glass is unbeatable.

New M.J. sunglasses

2 years ago

These replaced a 20+ year old pair of wrap around Maui Jim's that finally succumbed to daily wear. Customer service was very helpful in suggesting a new style that would fit and feel like the previous pair. These fit great, look great and provide optimal sun protection. Very happy with this purchase. Also, I was offered a substantial discount by retiring the previous pair which could not be repaired due to unavailability of parts. I (and my family) have been using M.J. sunglasses for over 25 years and these continue to be our "go to" sunglasses.

Great looking, but maybe not as durable

2 years ago

These are great looking sunglasses and I have been a diehard MJ sunglasses wearer for a long time, but these don’t really live up to my high expectations. They feel more lightweight/fragile that my last three pairs, and because the lens portion of the frame tilts somewhat, they rest a bit on my cheeks which prior styles have not. I’m also concerned they won’t last nearly as long because I have one small scratch on the lens in the first week of owning them, thought they always live in their case and I haven’t dropped them or damaged them in any way.

Right pair for comfort and sharp vision

3 years ago

I have had about seven pairs of Maui Jim sunglasses. The first was a pair that preceded even the old Cyclones--maybe 20 years ago? It had substantial frames, which I think MJ has moved away from for lighter ones.But of my options, I looked hard at these: super thin lens are the sharpest; burgundy frame looks black (a plus); flex hinges are tight (being able to push them back on my head is a must); nose pads are comfy. Wish the virtual try on feature was still available. That would have made my decision happen faster.
