Maui Jim Anemone Polarized Sunglasses
Pickup currently unavailable at BSS
SuperThin Glass Optics in a Polished Rectangular Frame
The Anemone delivers Maui Jim's clearest, lightest lens technology inside a refined rectangular silhouette. A durable stainless steel frame front provides structural rigidity and a polished, contemporary look, while the acetate temples offer comfortable all-day wearability. The subtle wrap geometry keeps lenses closer to the face for better peripheral coverage without sacrificing the clean, straight-line profile that reads as easily at a beach bar as at a post-paddle lunch.
Maui Jim SuperThin Glass Lenses
SuperThin Glass is Maui Jim's premium lens material, and it sets the Anemone apart from plastic-lens competitors. Compared to standard glass, SuperThin Glass is thinner and lighter, and it delivers the absolute crispest optical clarity in the Maui Jim lineup. Glass inherently resists surface scratches better than polycarbonate and does not exhibit the optical distortion common in lower-grade polarized lenses. Every Maui Jim lens is polarized to eliminate horizontal glare off water and reflective surfaces, and the proprietary PolarizedPlus2 treatment enhances color, contrast, and overall visual depth beyond what standard polarization provides.
Prescription Ready (Rx Power Range +3.00 to -4.50)
The Anemone is Rx-compatible across a wide power range, making it a practical choice for those who need vision correction and refuse to compromise on sun protection. The SuperThin Glass platform accepts prescription grinding without sacrificing the lens's optical signature. Consult a licensed optician for Rx orders.
Frame Construction and Fit
The frame front is machined stainless steel, a material chosen for its high strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. Stainless holds its shape through temperature swings and repeated wear better than lightweight alloys that can fatigue over time. The temples are acetate, which sits comfortably against the skin and holds its position without the pressure a full-metal temple can create. The frame is proportioned for a medium face shape, providing a balanced look without overpowering or underframing the face. Nose pads and temple tips are adjustable at any optical shop for a personalized fit.
Maui Jim Brand Heritage
Maui Jim launched in 1980 on the beach in Lahaina, Hawaii, selling sunglasses in one of the sunniest, most reflective environments on earth. The company's entire design philosophy flows from that origin: maximum glare elimination, maximum color fidelity, and protection from UV and HEV (blue light) radiation. The Anemone carries those priorities into a versatile, wear-anywhere frame that does not read as purely athletic or purely fashion.
