About Maui JimIn 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.
