Sunglass Outlet Blog

Centuries ago, early Hawaiians followed the rhythm of the waves and the position of the sun to get from island to island. Today, this wayfaring, is kept alive by Hawaiians who still believe the sun can guide them in their journeys. At Maui Jim Sunglasses, we also take our cues from the sun. We’re experts in finding ways to reveal all the colors of a sun-centered lifestyle, while protecting you from the effects of harsh glare. The Maui Jim Sunglasses destination is a place of beauty you’ve never seen before.

The Maui Jim Sunglasses PolarizedPlus technology was born from this sun-centered lifestyle. No other sunglass offers the same level of visual acuity, protection and color enhancement as the technology in Maui Jim Sunglasses. Maui Jim answers the ancient challenge of glare like no one else. Three elements in the Maui Jim Sunglasses multi-layer PolarizedPlus lens design ensure a complete solution to glare. With glare out of the way, more usable light is transmitted to the eyes for the best visual acuity, contrast and color.

The Maui Jim Stainless Steel Collection features a rimless design and hinge system that brings together style and performance in one tight package. It’s perfect for those who prefer lightweight Maui Jim Sunglasses in a sturdy frame package with a rimless design and hinge system and superior optics.

The Flexon frame on the Maui Jim Sunglasses is made from a bendable “memory” metal. This frame is lighter and keeps its shape longer than traditional metal frames.

The Sunglass Outlet is located inside Shoreline Of Tahoe, Lake Tahoe’s award winning Ski and Board Shop. We had countless sunny days this past season. The sun in the High Sierra is on average 4 times more powerful than at sea level.  I remember about 20 years ago I found myself at the resort ready to ski when I realized that I didn’t have my sunglasses with me. I thought, “Oh well I’ll just tough it out”…..Yea I was born in Minnesota, you could tough it out back there because they have countless cloudy days.  So I go to the top of the hill and the sun was so bright with the reflection off the snow that I honestly thought I was going to go blind. My eyes were bloodshot for a week.  I was very lucky that I didn’t go blind….Never go into the mountains without proper eye protection.  Here are this year’s best selling sunglasses all of which offer 100% UV protection. PROTECT YOUR EYES!!!
