Premium sunglass company Maui Jim will introduce four new super-thin glass styles to its collection at next month’s TFWA Asia Pacific exhibition.
The company said the new glasses were 20% and lighter than conventional glass lenses, comfortable to wear, boasted excellent scratch and solvent resistance and offered the best optics available.
Maui Jim Ocean is available in various colour combinations: Tortoise with Peacock nylon frame and HCL Bronze lenses; Tortoise with Raspberry and Maui Rose lenses and Grey Tortoise Stripe and Neutral Grey lenses. The lenses in this style only are MauiGradient, lighter at the bottom than top. This is to protect the eyes and make reading easier.
Popoki, is a similar shape but slightly smaller and constructed in Satin Monel metal. The vintage silhouette is complemented by acetate temples in burgundy, green and blue mottled colour combinations. The frame base colours are satin dark gunmetal with Maui Rose lenses; satin chocolate with HCL bronze and satin black with neutral grey.
With a trendy oversised frame to suit men and women with slightly larger faces, Rising Sun is crafted in lightweight nylon for comfort. Three colourways are offered: Burgundy stripe with Maui rose lenses; matte tortoise with HCL bronze; classic matte black with neutral grey.
The more masculine Snapback is a classic wayfarer sunglass style, constructed in light nylon with the same high clarity ST lenses. Available in matte black, matte tortoise, grey tortoise and green stripe with complementary lens colours, this style is designed to suit every face shape, indicated Maui Jim.
The company said: “All Maui Jim sunglasses have PolarisedPlus2 lenses which wipe out 99% of glare, manage 95% of HEV and block 99% of harmful UV while boosting colours to unmatched levels. They have been recommended by The Skin Cancer Foundation as an effective UV filter for the eyes and surrounding skin.”
Maui Jim will be located K9 Basement 2 at TFWA Asia Pacific.
