Maui Jim sunglasses combine advanced PolarizedPlus2® lens technology with refined frame design, delivering exceptional polarization, true color enhancement, and 100% UVA/UVB protection. Founded in Lahaina, Hawaii in 1980, the brand brings authentic island-inspired craftsmanship to NYC eyewear lovers at Konstantin.
Maui Jim’s PolarizedPlus2® lens technology eliminates 99.9% of glare and 100% of harmful UV rays while enhancing color and contrast. The lenses are tuned to filter specific wavelengths that bring out the true color of objects — especially blues, greens, and reds. Each lens incorporates rare-earth elements and a multilayer construction designed to reduce eye strain, sharpen details, and protect long-term eye health under any lighting condition. At Konstantin in NYC, you can pair Maui Jim frames with custom prescription lenses cut in our in-house optical lab.
Maui Jim’s lens science is the result of decades of research into how light interacts with the eye. Beyond polarization, PolarizedPlus2® lenses include MauiBrilliant™ ultra-light, ultra-clear polycarbonate; MauiPure® for impact resistance and optical clarity; and SuperThin Glass for the sharpest possible vision. Treatments such as CLEARSHELL™ scratch coating and Bi-Gradient mirror finishes ensure the lenses perform in everyday wear, from city driving to the beach. At Konstantin, lenses can be paired with prescriptions in single vision, progressive, and digital formats — all custom-fit to your frames in our NYC optical lab.
Beyond lens technology, Maui Jim’s frames are engineered for both fashion and longevity. Lightweight nylon, beta-titanium, and acetate constructions resist saltwater, sweat, and UV exposure, while spring hinges and adjustable nose pads deliver a secure, comfortable fit. The collections move easily between sporty wraps, refined aviators, and timeless ladies’ silhouettes — making Maui Jim a versatile choice for everyone from outdoor enthusiasts to NYC commuters who demand performance in a polished package.
Maui Jim frames come in three distinct material families. MauiFlex™ uses lightweight Grilamid TR-90 nylon that’s nearly impossible to break; metal collections lean on beta-titanium and stainless steel for a refined, professional look; and the acetate range — including the Cliff House, Honi, and Honokalani styles — uses thick-cut Italian acetates with intricate layering and hand-polished finishes. Whichever you choose, Konstantin’s NYC opticians will ensure the frame is precisely fit to your face shape, prescription, and lifestyle.
