    These are the best sunglasses. No more juggling around an extra pair to read while in the sun. I would recommend them for everyone that needs a reader. They are well worth the price.

    I own five pairs of Maui Jim Sunglasses, and just bought these pair of readers. I couldn't be happier. No doubt these are the best sunglasses on the market.

    Brands I'd also recommend: absolutely none, maui jim\'s are the best.

    These are great sunglasses. I had a pair of Maui Jim's but was having to take them off and on to switch to my reading glasses. These are perfect. It does take some patience to get used to using them because the reader part of the lens is at the bottom toward the nose piece. It is kind of like getting use to bi-focals. Zappos was super fast and free as usual. I had them in two days.

    Extremely lightweight, super grippy with the tacky nose bridge and side grips. The perfect sports sunglasses.

    Brands I'd also recommend: nope, only wear MJs

    The reading area is smaller and lower on the lens than most readers so returning for that reason. The strength runs a little low as well. Sharp looking glass.

    About Maui Jim

    of New Styles!

    Notify me when new styles of Maui Jim are added to the website

    Add This Brand to My Favorites
    Aloha! Born on the sunny beaches of Hawaii in the early 1980s, Maui Jim® Sunglasses were born out of need. In this case, the need was for a sunglass that would eliminate the harsh Hawaiian glare without distorting the beautiful colors of the island scenery. Everyone said it was impossible — the elimination of glare and color clarity just did not go together. After years of research and development, the impossible became a reality.

    Now you can open your eyes to a whole new world of color with Maui Jim Sunglasses featuring PolarizedPlus®2 lens technology—the most advanced polarized lens technology on Earth. It has the power to face down glare and extinguish it completely. Maui Jim’s patented multi-layered lens design allows more usable light to be transmitted to the eyes. Unrivaled visual acuity, contrast and color are the exquisite results. You will experience deeper, more saturated colors and higher levels of contrast in any environment.

    Maui Jim continues to revolutionize the sunwear world with the introduction of the Maui Evolution® lens. This proprietary lens material is made for those with active lifestyles. It offers the best qualities of Maui Jim’s ST (SuperThin) glass and Polycarbonate lenses by offering superior optics, scratch resistance and impact resistance in a lightweight, high-index package. Maui Evolution® enhances color with a patented lens treatment.

    Available in four lens colors, Maui Jim® offers an option for every level of light. Neutral Grey lenses offer contrast and the highest available glare reduction and are suitable for all light conditions, especially bright, direct sunlight. Maui Rose® lenses offer the sharpest contrast and image resolution. They are excellent for fast action activities, overcast or foggy days. HCL® (High Contrast Lens) Bronze lenses offer enhanced contrast and are ideal for hazy and low light conditions. The new HT™ (High Transmission) lenses are perfect for variable and low light conditions, haze, fog, or overcast days and feature a flattering palm tint without a distracting yellow cast.

    Protect your eyes from harmful glare today without blocking out any of the vibrant colors around you with a pair of Maui Jim® sunglasses!

    I love these sunglasses. I wear them for golf and the reader is small enough where it does not bother my swing or putting stroke. They are perfect for those who have difficultly reading the score card! I actually own several pairs.

    This is my first pair of non-prescription sunglasses after eye surgery and I could not be happier. I get a lot of compliments on the looks of the glasses. The quality of both the frames and lens also seem first class. I would recommend these to anyone with a smallish face. The readers are small, but that seems appropriate for sunglasses.

    I bought these for my husband and he LOVES them. So lightweight and the "reader" function is not obvious. I wish there were more style options with the magnification; I'd buy a pair for myself.

    Four stars over all for two reasons. First, the reading area of the lens is too low to the viewing area. The positioning can lead to tension headaches from straining to look down at such a steep angle. Second, the lens itself is fragile and subject to breaking at the screw holes. The right lens of my pair has broken at the nose bridge screw. I am trying to find replacement lenses. It would be wonderful if Zappos sold the lenses only. I have even written to Maui Jim asking if they sell replacement lenses but I have not received a reply yet. Overall, I really like these glasses but they do have drawbacks.

    Brands I'd also recommend: Oakley

    Was really looking forward to these and so disappointed that the reader space is way too small.
