Maui Jim Mens and Womens Breakwall Polarized Rimless Sunglasses

I had need of some high quality sunglasses because my eye doctor informed me of developing cataracts. He told me polarized sunglasses would help by cutting down the UV light. Compounding this is the fact my vision is losing clarity so needed high quality lenses. I was advised that Maui Jim sunglasses were superior to the other two top contenders: Ray Ban and Oakley's. The advice proved true. The lens clarity has noticeable high tech treatment of light. I can look directly at the sun with them on without any discomfort. The clarity of the visual field is fantastic. The frame is very light and conforms nicely to my head. Unlike contending brands, the lens was curved to block like from the sides. And, unlike many sunglasses, my eyelashes did not brush the lenses. A word of caution: I tried three Maui Jim sunglasses on the :"try before you buy" program. Two came in large and one was medium. (I bought the medium root beer) However, the Amazon description for the sunglasses did have dimensions but did not use the term "medium" or "large". The size was noted only on the boxes. I actually liked the green mirror lenses slightly better but did not like the large frame size. (They kept slipping) I could not determine how to order the green lenses in the medium size so passed on those. So Amazon and Maui Jim lost a sale. I hope someone reads this and fixes the description. They are really good sunglasses and deserve to be bought. Declaring the size would help that. Read more

Great sunglasses, lite weight. Read more

Quality but at a price. They are excellent, extremely light weight and clear as a bell. You will see some copy cat knockoffs from China but they don’t even come close, fit feel,size and weight. Read more

I have a weird nose shape and other sunglasses would hurt my nose bridge. I did an internet search for lighweight sunglass frames and these came up. I stupidly put them away in my bag without their case and one of the temples broke, but was able to get a replacement temple for $15 on Maui Jim's website. Recommend these if you want something lightweight, but always put them in their case! Read more

I purchased these shades for wearing when there isn't as much sun but I wanted the benefit of the polarized lenses. I have to say, so far I wear these more than any other pair of shades I have. They do a very good job with exactly what I was looking for; reduced glare, increased clarity, even in low light (and at night). These are great in the rain, at dusk, on a semi-cloudy day... I've worn them at night and they are pretty good there too reducing glare, if you can get past the "I wear my sunglasses at night" kinda uncool feel :). Lastly, they are extremely light so they are comfortable to wear for an extended period of time. The only drawbacks with these sunglasses so far are the lenses get dirty real easy so you'll need to wipe them often and the frames are a bit flimsy so I am a little worried about the durability. Overall, a very good buy if you are looking for some lighter (shading and weight) sunglasses. Read more

I’ve been a Maui Jim buyer for 20 years. The Breakwall is a very nice pair of sunglasses. The nose bridge is very tough as I’ve been wearing them on top of my head and hit against car when opening door and they don’t even budge. Very well built and flexible. The lens size is just right for my face and they have great coverage without looking too big. The glare reduction is great just like in any Maui Jim. The performance of these sun glasses makes them worth the full retail price of $190, but I’ve seen them on sale for as low as $140. If $190 is too steep and they aren’t on sale see if they have any ‘Used-Like New’. I did that for my first pair before they went on sale and got a great pair of sunglasses. Any way you buy them, they are worth the money and performance is great. Read more

Couldn't be happier with this product. Needed a pair of sun-glasses that were a bit on the upscale, more professional look, the Maui Jim's are exactly that!! Couldn't keep wearing the Half-Jacket Gold Iridium with suits, just didn't look right!! I still have and love the Oakley's, but wear them more as a casual-sport look! Cost of the Breakwall's was perfect, the fit and weight is second to none! Tried on the Oakley Plantiffs & Crosshairs, RayBan Aviators, Bolle Columbus, Serengeti Nuvola, Gargoyles The Marshall, Tom Ford Marko, etc., trust me, I did my research! All the metal-based frames were heavy, where the Breakwall's were "light & tight" but not enough to give you that "sun-glass headache" that some brands give you! You have to treat these glasses well, as they are a bit delicate, but I guess that's the trade off for being light as a feather on your face! Optics/Vision quality is excellent! Being polarized was a plus! Classy, but can still use them while out sporting around, ... beach, golf course, boating, or the classic convertible Sunday drive!! Read more

Great quality for everyday sun protection. Read more
