About Maui Jim
In the early 1980s on the island of Maui, a small group of people set up a business selling sunglasses to beach-goers. What these entrepreneurs quickly discovered was that the sunglasses in existence were no match for the brilliant Hawaiian sun, so they decided to develop their own. Today, the Maui Jim company, owner of PolarizedPlus patented technology, is one of the fastest-growing polarized-sunglass makers in the world.
