Maui Jim welcomes summer with new vintage Kahoma sunglasses

Maui Jim has expanded its line of retro-inspired sunglasses with the launch of the new Kahoma, a wayfarer that is said to make a statement on smaller oval- or heart-shaped faces.

All Maui Jim sunglasses feature the company’s nine-layer PolarizedPlus2 lens technology designed to cut 100% of UV rays and 99.9% of glare from above, below and behind each lens. Maui Jim claims to be the only company to embed three rare earth elements in its lenses to improve definition and depth perception while allowing wearers to see true, vivid colours. Kahoma’s lenses are made from SuperThin (ST) Glass that is 20% lighter and thinner than conventional glass lenses.

The Kahoma style is part of the company’s MauiGradient collection of sunglasses with lenses that are darker at the top of the lens, gradually getting lighter towards the bottom without losing polarisation efficiency. Maui Jim also claims to be the world’s only company to offer prescription polarised single gradient lenses.

Kahoma (MSRP US$229) comes in three colour options: Gloss Black with Neutral Grey lenses for bright, sunny days; Honey Tortoise with HCL Bronze lenses for days with variable light conditions; and Tortoise with Gloss Black Temples and HCL Bronze lenses. The saddle-style fixed nose bridge has embedded rubber nose pads for comfort and stability. Kahoma also has anticorrosive spring hinges.
