After speaking with Maui Jim, The blue Hawaii land single gradient lands therefore they can’t add the “squint” technology to it as compared to the natural gray lens, so that’s why it looks different and Lets more light in as it’s a single gradient, it’s not adding any brown to the spectrum, still a gray lens.

[@outdoorse7969]

Looking to buy my first pair of Maui Jim sunglasses 🦜 . Yesterday I actually when to the original Maui Jim store on Maui, Hawaii 🏝️. Very fun to try on different shades 😎. This video is super helpful to decide on lens color. Thank you!

[@sportrxeyewear]

Very cool! Glad we could help ✌️🔥 Thanks for watching!

[@bobbyv7042]

the Rose and HCL lenses bring out the reds and oranges - great for viewing the fall colors. They are also great for driving because they highlight the red taillights/brake lights of the cars ahead. Putting these on in foggy or rain spray conditions during the day lets you see more taillamps further ahead than usual.

[@Tiger24kicks]

The rose lens and the blue is my favorite

[@mmarcus62]

I think it would be nice to make a video in which you would compare side by side the difference in color depending on the lens material

[@sportrxeyewear]

Thanks for the recommendation! The difference in color between materials is so slight that one wouldn't be able to distinguish one from one another if they were placed side by side. However, some folks may notice a subtle difference when looking through the lens rather than at it directly.

[@ThatGlassesGuy03]

@@sportrxeyewear Ild disagree pretty drastically with that. At least in the blue Hawaii and Maui Green every material has a notably different view. Rose, HT, and neutral gray don’t seem to suffer the same issue. I only recently started working with Maui so this may be a newer issue.

Nice Maui Jim reviews. Also like your Speedmaster..!

[@sportrxeyewear]

Appreciate it!

[@svenkle]

Thanks for this. I was beginning to think I was the only one who can see a difference between the mirror colors. The Blue Hawaii makes for such a soothing warm boost to their already fantastic gray. The green mirror to me looks a little more purple than bronze. It's a weird beast for sure - held away from the eye you can see a purple/pink cast. But once you put it on, it goes a little blue/green. While the other grays are picturesque, the greens are surreal - from Monet to Dali :D Also, thanks for clarifying the base tint of the Lava is bronze. I don't think MJ mentions that anywhere on the site, and I always assumed it was gray. The MJ bronze is my least favorite of their tints. A great lens, but too much yellow for me. I prefer the rich brown you get from Vuarnet or little known Otis Optics (you should pick this brand up). The MJ rose is great, but I almost wish they did this in non-polar - not too much polarized light in the overcast conditions this excels for, and just imagine how much richer the colors would be.

[@sportrxeyewear]

"From Monet to Dali"! That's a *great* line! I love how well-versed (and poetic) you are with Maui's lens lineup! We actually did carry Otis. They make a good lens, for sure, but we ended up not being able to work with their glass lenses in prescription. Glass and prescription is a really tough game. Maui doing non-polar sounds sacrilegious, but I would be very interested to see through those lenses! Thanks for watching and for giving me the line of the day (week)!

I’ve had a pair of prescription Maui Jim sunglasses for 3 years and I just lost them 😮 they fell out of my purse on a plane. I loved those glasses SO much - they were perfect protection for the relentless (and amazing) sunlight in Arizona. The frame style has been discontinued and I wish I could remember which type of lenses I had. I’m considering replacing them with a pair of the Kaiwi Channel in grey/black and now that I watched your video, I may want to get the blue or green tint on the neutral grey lenses. Does adding the mirror increase the cost?

[@StevenYoungEtc]

That was super helpful. I love the quality of those thin glass lenses, but the MJ website was not overly helpful. Mahalo!

[@liulanqi99]

Great video, really love how you explain all the different color lens. I am a bus driver in Toronto Canada, I drive a bus in all weather conditions, sunny, overcast, rain, snow, high/low light, day and night and so on. Which color would be best for me? Cannot decide between the HCL Bronze(which really bring out the color and someone said it highlight the brake light of the car in front of me), Hawaii Blue and Green(love the mirror effect and also people cannot see my eyes).

[@clausgedved8728]

Thank you for making lots of great videos i especially enjoy the big head ones, since I always had a hard time finding sunglasses that fit me. The other day, I purchased a pair of Maui Jim Breezeways in local store. The seller in the shop introduced them as gunmetal frame and brown lenses. I starting to wander if I got the rose gold model. Could the Maui rose lenses be mistaken for brown/tans. If you don't have gold/bronze version to compare with? The frame isn't light chrome or gold.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hey Claus, Graham your Maui guy here. Interesting question! Despite the Breezeway now being a discontinued frame, I dug into our frame archives to check out all the different frame and lens color combos. Among the four options, there were two silver frames (blue Hawaii, Neutral Grey lenses), one gold frame with HCL Bronze, and the Rose Gold frame with a Maui Rose lens. Based on what you've told me and the frames available, it sounds like your local shop sold you the Rose Gold frame with Maui Rose lenses as you assumed might be the case. The rose color can be subtle in appearance. Hopefully you love your Breezeway! The Rose lens is Sunglass Rob's favorite and I personally feel that it should be offered in more frames.

Do you know whether Maui Jim making ‘variations’ of blue mirror? I have two Ho’Okipas here and one is a deeper blue than the other from the outside. Inside, the deeper blue is slightly green where the lighter pair are slightly amber. One is marked UK CA and the other USA. I am wondering whether Maui Jim are selling different versions for ‘less bright looking’ weather or one of mine is a fake. Online search even shows pictures where some are dark blue and others lighter blue. IMO, there’s not enough around on spotting fakes and I have my suspicions. Both are well made, polarisation is fine and they both are on same level as far as build quality goes. One has the size marked with a square after the first number while the other has all dashes on the size info. (On the arm of the glasses)

[@Gregoryverfied]

Great video. Can I ask an unrelated question about cleaning? Any thing wrong with using a plush style microfiber rather than the silky microfiber that usually comes with glasses?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Good question! Nothing wrong with using it other than it may leave some loose excess fibers on the lens surface after cleaning. There's also a greater chance of a small grain of sand, or something that size, getting into the fibers of the cloth unknowingly, which could scratch the lens surface when attempting to clean it. But as long as the cloth is clean, then you should be fine.

I live in the Desert around the Phoenix area...do a lot of hiking. Blue Mirror or just Neutral Grey? Sensitive eyes and I I imagine the Bronze would be great but may need something darker...thoughts?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hey Robert! Personal preference aside, Bronze has as tendency to make desert environments appear hotter whereas grey presents a refreshing outlook while keeping colors neutral. Grey/green is another great option. The blue mirror might be the way to go if you live in the Phoenix area. It will warm up the tones just a bit while blocking more light from passing through the lens, lowering the overall VLT. You're definitely on the right track 👍

I'm really wanting to confirm if what i was looking through was Rose or something else. It was amazing. He didn't know what it was because they were a gift. Also, I really like the frame you're displaying. Wondering (I may have missed, sorry) if you could tell me the name of the frame? Great Work!!! Thank you!! Sorry: the frames I'm asking about are the first few you model, the rose, etc. Again, what I experienced: I don't quite want to use the word "purple" very light "purplish" I'm guessing it was rose.

[@ChicagoScorpion411]

Thanks for this, it's awesome!! Green vs Lava; Rose vs Bronze, is there a significant difference between the two to where it would be worth buying both of them? Or is looking through both them similar to where the average person wouldn't know the difference? When you showed the rose and bronze filters, the bronze looked a little bit "darker" and maybe a little more contrast.

[@sportrxeyewear]

That's a good question, Ed! I'm definitely a proponent of having both a rose as well as a bronze-based lens in one's collection since they offer very different tones to your visual field, yet both provide robust color boosting and contrast enhancing tech. It depends on the light conditions combined with the environment and/or activity regarding choosing which lens to use on a given day. Rose on the golf course, bronze on hikes for me. You can't go wrong with a stable of lens options for different applications, but many folks get by with only one or two options. Hope this helps!

[@sportrxeyewear]

Wow, you're not making it easy! You're debating between some of the best in the field! It sounds like we need to do a WM1 vs WM3 video ASAP. The WM1 is spherical (as is the Flight Deck XM) and the WM3 is cylindrical. We found a bit better peripheral in the WM3 over all the options here. You'd be getting an amazing goggle, no matter which option you go with. Some things to note - the lens tech is amazing, no matter which you decide on, but Prizm is probably nearest and dearest our heart. Also, don't miss out on that MFI (Magnetic Facemask Integration). Especially these days, it is amazing to have the integrated face mask. It is certainly the best face mask setup you'll ever use. Also, the Anons offer a bonus lens so you have a lens for brighter conditions and lower light/snowy conditions.

[@thefilthygringo9228]

I usually go with the neutral gray, that is the most protected. I’m a truck driver and I have very sensitive eyes. I was thinking about getting one of the colored lens either the blue green or lava red. I’m very partial to the color red so I thought about getting red lava but I’m not really sure I like the base HCL. I like that the green and the blue happy neutral gray base. What do you think?

[@impact0r]

In my opinion, Hawaii Blue provides the best look of the world (heightened contrast with added saturation/warmth/pleasantness to the view but without exaggerating too much), with very limited darkening. However, is not very protective against brightest light. I would use it exclusively expect for direct sun-in-the-eyes scenarios. I find MJ's gray lenses too dark most of the time, with a hint of depression. If you need something darker than Hawaii Blue, check out Sunrise. It is probably 66-70% point between HB and Gray. Looking through Sunrise is nowhere near as pink as this video shows. It look natural with a hint of warmth (less than HB) but quite a bit darker.

[@impact0r]

@Clay Pylant They say that, but this is simply not true. There are two versions of Hawaii Blue: MP and MB. MB is used in some older models (for example Alelele Bridge B438-03M), some of them no longer manufactured. It is based on a green lens. MP is the newer one - the one I like - which is based on a bronze lens. It is a very bright lens and can be easily worn in dusk conditions. Nothing to do with grey. Source: I tried about ~10 models with Hawaii Blue lens.

[@impact0r]

@Clay Pylant Depends how sensitive your eyes are. I can wear Hawaii Blue in full sun but I do not like really dark lenses (like regular Grey MJ lens). If you live in area with constant and strong sun, and are looking to significantly restrict the amount of light that gets into your eyes, HB are not for you. But from the UV and blue-light protection stand point (so what is actually damaging the eye), they should be just as good as any other MJ lense. Coverage/wrap-around depends on the model, not lens.

Does the mirrored lense give more protection than the neutral gray?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi! All Maui Jim Sun lenses come equipped with either a Bi-Gradient, Gradient, or Solid mirror and all offer 100% UV protection. This includes Neutral Grey lens which has one of the lowest VLT (Visible Light Transmission) percentages of all the tint options. For those with a high level of light sensitivity, the Neutral Grey will likely provide the most relief and allow the eyes to relax, especially in bright daytime light conditions.

MB is used in older models (for example, Alelele Bridge B438-03M), some of them no longer manufactured. It is based on a green lens. The resulting view-through is quite ugly, IMO. MP is the newer one - the best MJ lens in my opinion - which is based on a bronze lens (Mavericks, Red Sands, Big Wave, Ho'Okipa, Pokowai Arch, Hikina, etc). The colors are close to natural, but with tweaked saturation and very slight bronze tint. It is a very bright lens and can be easily worn in dusk conditions. Nothing to do with grey.

100% right. I have the second model and it’s my go to golden hour pair, I never thought I could find a pair of lenses that would make the golden hour even nice that it naturally is, but blue Hawaii does it

@@G0rdy92 definitely not 100% right lol it comes on a grey lens for super thin glass. Source: I own a pair

Are sure the brilliant is the old technology and the pure is the new one? MB website says the exact opposite.

I love my prescription Maui Jim sunglasses. My lenses have strange cracks. When you look at the lenses , at an angle. There seems to manifest hundreds of tiny cracks. What is this.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Where on sunglass is the lens type annotated?

If the rose tint is your “favourite lens on earth” - what’s do you recommend for space travel please?😂

Where's the original video with those modeling the different color lenses?

[@l00gs]

Hey Rob, quick question for you. I recently got a pair that has the Maui Sunrise lens. This might sound like a weird question, but sometimes when you are using your peripheral vision to look side to side you see little pink spots in the lenses. It's almost like you would think the lenses is scratched and the coating is coming off, but it's not. I don't know if that question makes sense, but have you ever heard of anything like that happening before? Thanks a lot for your help man, appreciate it and love the videos!

[@sportrxeyewear]

Thank YOU for watching! Interesting🤔 Sounds like dust particles collecting on the lens or possibly dried water spots. Send a couple photos of what you're describing to info@sportrx, and one of our opticians will review the images and get back to you with an answer!

What is the vlt on the blue and the green lenses?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi Jonathan, both of those lens options fall into Category 3 for light transmission. The exact vlt depends ultimately on the lens material and what mirror type is applied but generally speaking it falls between 8-18%.

Maui jim vs smith rx lenses. Is there a big difference in quality?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi! It depends on the application. MJ makes some of the best lenses on the planet, but many of their frames and lenses aren't typically suited for sport applications. Smith Chromapop tech delivers great color and contrast for a variety of sport settings. But if it's for everyday casual use with some mild sport applications, steer toward MJ: 👉 www.sportrx.com/brand/maui-jim.html 🔥

[@inarell84]

@sportrxeyewear what makes the MJ lenses better for everyday use?

[@jcmoye1]

The Cliff house is the best by far, classic aviator never gets old. Great for Golf, lightweight Titanium and that’s silver frame is killer look in off the course. Don’t like the plastic so much anymore, look cheap

[@attilab.2818]

Why cliff house? What’s wrong with the Mavericks?

[@Brody1007]

Which of new lens colors would be best for freshwater sight fishing? Mostly in S. Florida, if that helps

[@trekadvisor2865]

HT for sure

[@neutronshiva2498]

Any way to remove brand logo on the lens? I really dont get why they need to print huge ass logo in the most distracting place.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hello! You do have the option to leave off the logo for eyeglass lenses w/prescription from Maui JIm, but not for sunglasses unfortunately.

[@rozariofernandes6455]

What would you recommend for the Fishing ?

[@sportrxeyewear]

That is a great question! It depends on what type of fishing you're doing. Generally speaking, you can't go wrong with any Maui Jim lens. They're amazing! There can be some options that may better suit the type of fishing you're doing. If sight fishing (flats, rivers, fly, etc) is where you're at, then get something contrast-enhancing like our favorite HCL Bronze and Maui Rose. If you're deep-sea fishing, go for the Neutral Grey or Maui Blue Hawaii. You don't have to be limited to these options! You can always call our friendly, knowledgeable opticians for all the tailored assistance you may need at 888-831-5817

How about a purple lens, do u have anything the purple lens something like the blue lens

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi Sina! Some Maui Jim models come with their MAUI Sunrise lens which looks like a pinkish purple depending on teh angle and lighting, but it's considered pink overall.

[@sinasamar2566]

@@sportrxeyewear thanks will try and to a test, does any other make of sunglasses have that purple, if u have any idea of other sunglasse

[@brightlee214]

Bronze lens are not for driving, but grey lens are absolutely for driving👈👍 and also for neutral colors👈, especially look out the traffic lights😀

[@sportrxeyewear]

Each Maui Jim lens caters to different environments and visual preferences. You can learn more, about them in our Maui Jim Lens Color Guide! www.sportrx.com/blog/maui-jim-lens-color-guide/

[@SergioAlexandro]

That’s not true

[@attilab.2818]

Grey lenses are definitely not for driving apart from bright, direct sunlight.

[@ryangerman91]

I actually prefer my bronze for driving over my grey unless it's direct sunlight
