Maui Jim Ho'okipa Sunglasses - Polarized

The Maui Jim® Ho'okipa combines the best elements of a sport sunglass—lightweight nylon frame and polarized polycarbonate lens—into functional but stylishly crafted eyewear. The Ho'okipa's lightweight nylon frame is strong, comfortable and attractive; the polycarbonate lens adds lightweight comfort and impact-resistance. Two layers of Maui Jim's CLEARSHELL® coating guard against scratches. Perfect for watersports—from deep-sea fishing to getting covered at Pipe, Ho'okipa sunglasses feature PolarizedPlus® Technology. A polarized lens' primary function is to reduce glare—that is, light reflected from a flat surface which greatly diminishes color and contrast. A body of water, a windshield, and even an asphalt road are all notorious producers of polarized light. Polarized lenses are most useful when trying to see through these reflecting surfaces, like when fishing, boating, or driving. Maui Jim sunglasses feature one of the most effective polarized lenses on the market. They are lightweight, tough, and very stylish.

Bottom Line: Style for Hollywood; sport for the dedicated outdoor freak.

Maui Jim Hookipa

Without question the finest pair of sport sunglasses I have ever owned. The lenses perform in every way. Lightweight, durable, and most importantly comfortable all day long. I wouldn't own any other brand.

Maui Jim Ho'okipa sunglasses

By: Martin V. (1)
March 18, 2008

These are my second pair (I broke the first pair through my own clumsiness). Anyway, I really like 'em because: - excellent optics (no distortion, polarized so they cut glare, great colour transmission) - they're very light - the rubberized tips keep them in place, even while running in hot weather - they're very comfortable - decent sun protection from all angles - cool-looking but not too "high fashion" Bear in mind that "scratch resistant" coating doesn't mean "scratch proof", but with normal care they should last a long time. Just don't repeatedly drop them on rocks or in gravel like I did with my old pair.

The best I've owned

By: RCLee (2)

Superb optics and quality--the only sunglasses I now own. Have used from the Canadian Rockies to New Zealand, from deserts to glaciers, from driving to ice climbing. Fairly priced. BTW, can use alcohol hand sanitizer to clean, as suncreen/grease can be hard to get off the inside of the lenses.

Stylish, comfortable, and functional

By: gwbaustin (1)

This is my third pair of Maui Jim's and are my favorite thus far. As an outdoor enthusiast, these glasses are great. They have a little rubber piece on the arm of the frames that make it easy to place and keep the glasses on your head or on a hat (like when golfing or fishing). Furthermore, they are super light weight and have wrap-around lenses without frame borders, so you hardly know you're wearing them. Maui Jim lenses are a perfect color, and polarized lenses are a must. I highly recommend these glasses to anyone.

FABULOUS SHades

By: MJ Lover (1)

I LOOOOOVE my MJs. Bought a set of these 2 yrs ago and they're amazing! Not only do they look totally fab but they work phenomenally. Sun, water, snow no matter what I can see without the squinting or headaches or having to use the visor in my car. I just recently had them stolen and I didn't realize how much I loved them til they were gone. Obviously someone else loves them now too. I am totally getting another pair!

Great Sunglasses

By: AMG (2)

I bought a pair of these a year ago for boating. They are well designed and very lightweight. My biggest problem is finding glasses that will fit my huge head but these fit wide faces extremely well without pinching at the temples or behind the ears. The lenses are coated reflective and help shed water. They also look great, with a nice shape that blocks bright sun and glare off the water but doesn't look like some kind of futuristic space suit visor. All in all, they are stylish and very functional, but don't break the bank.

Maui Jim Polarized

By: E. Ross (1)
July 29, 2003

I needed a pair of polarized glasses to use when I spend time on the water. After checking the internet Maui Jim came up several times, so I bought a pair to try. They enable me to see through all the glare from the water. While fishing also let me see the fish below the surface, which is impossible with regular sunglasses. I have only one negative comment. The sunscreen I put on gets on my eylashes and they rub on the inside surface of the lens, causing a grease spot right in my line of vision. Constantly cleaning the glasses is a small inconvenience and I would not give up these glasses.
