Product Overview
Not for sale online in California.
This lightweight style features a minimalist look with maximum features.
If you're active, the last thing you need is a pair of sunglasses that alters the colors of the world around you. That's where Maui Jim's Kumu Polarized Sunglasses come in. Their PolarizedPlus2® lens technology goes beyond shielding your eyes from glare and harmful UV to reveal and enhance the colors that define where you live and play. Utilizing MauiBrilliant™, Maui Jim's most advanced lens material, you get optics nearly as clear as glass yet only one-third the weight. And their lightweight frames are made of beta-titanium, a flexible but strong alloy. You'll find nonslip nose pads and rubber sleeves on the temples for comfort and to help keep them on your face. Although, if you want to be extra sure they don't end up falling off at an inopportune moment (like when you're leaning over the railing of a boat), a neoprene retainer or leash (sold separately) is inexpensive insurance.
