The subject of Maui Jim never fails to give me a chuckle, and the subject came up today from an out of towner looking to buy a pair.

Do any Peorians own their sunglasses?

@skutfarcus : Well, the first thing the guy said was "whoa, those are expensive."
 
I'm not sure Peoria's really their market, but they are very giving to local charities. Write them a letter on behalf of the Peoria branch of the Blessed Church of the Beloved Skutfarcus of Contemporary Saints and ask for a donation for your fundraiser.
 
You're welcome!

I have a pair that my wife sent me in 2005 when I was out doing government work on behalf the U.S. President. Every know and then I take them into the factory for a tune up but this the last time I did it was a great experience as the other times. So I have been thinking about retiring my sunglasses from MJ and move onto somthing newer and cooler.

I had a nice pair of Maui Jim sunglasses 🕶 at one time. They were very nice, I really liked them. Somewhere along the line, I just lost them. 😥

Maui Jim's are a solid for prescription sunglasses.
 
I have a pair that I got for competitive sailing. It does not look like they sell them anymore. They matched most of my difficult prescription.

It's been 10-15 years, but Maui Jims was always great about donating two pairs of high end sunglasses to the Firecracker 5000 winners. I try to run in thier Maka Maka run each year because of that.
