Not much of a reader? Sunglass Rob breaks down the Maui Jim HT vs. Blue Hawaii lens in this brief video.


Maui HT

While the Maui HT, or high transmission, lens protects against 100% of harmful UV rays, it's designed to let a lot of light through. This makes it perfect for sports like golf or low light conditions like an overcast day. In other words, they're a great option for times when regular sunglasses may be too dark.

When you look through Maui HT lenses, you'll see a gentle green hue, and a bi-gradient silver mirror helps to mimic your eyes squinting so you don't have to.

Blue Hawaii

A far cry from the subtle Maui HT, the Blue Hawaii lens is a bold, bright blue mirror based on a Neutral Grey lens. The Neutral Grey base not only makes it a very dark, protective sunglass, it also works with the blue mirror to make this a high contrast lens. When you're looking through the Blue Hawaii lens, you'll see bronze tones that help enhance and define color.

Maui HT vs. Blue Hawaii Lens

As Sunglass Rob says, the Maui HT and Blue Hawaii lenses are different aesthetically and functionally. Maui HT looks calm and conservative and is designed for low-light conditions. On the other hand, Blue Hawaii is loud, flashy, and great for bright light conditions.

The only thing these two lens options have in common is their PolarizedPlus2 lens technology. This technology cuts harsh glare while boosting color and contrast for a more vivid view of your surroundings. Every Maui Jim lens is also equipped with anti-reflective and scratch-resistant coatings, as well as water and oil barriers to make them harder to get dirty and easier to clean.
