The Maui Jim BANYANS MJ412 Sunglasses are named after one of Hawaii’s Big Island’s most legendary surf breaks—and they’re built to match that intensity. This rimless sport frame has been a top seller for years, trusted by anglers, golfers, cyclists, and anyone who demands serious optical performance in a lightweight package.
Every pair of Banyans features Maui Jim’s patented PolarizedPlus2 lens technology, which goes far beyond basic polarization. These lenses eliminate 99.9% of glare while blocking 100% of harmful UVA and UVB rays. A proprietary blend of three rare earth elements enhances reds, greens, and blues, delivering color and contrast that standard sunglasses simply can’t match. Anti-reflective and oleophobic coatings come standard, making the lenses easier to clean and reducing bounce-back glare.
The HCL Bronze lens (available in Tortoise frames) is a customer favorite for good reason. This “High Contrast Lens” offers a warm, amber tint with a gold bi-gradient mirror that works beautifully in overcast to full-sun conditions. It adds depth and vibrancy without the intense darkness of Neutral Grey, making it exceptionally versatile for golf, fishing, driving, and everyday wear. The Neutral Grey lens (in Gloss Black) is Maui Jim’s darkest option, ideal for bright, direct sunlight and sensitive eyes. The Maui HT (High Transmission) lens is designed for variable and low-light conditions, offering extra contrast when other lenses would be too dark.
The semi-rimless design is constructed from Grilamid, a lightweight, flexible material that’s incredibly durable and holds its shape through years of hard use. Adjustable rubber nose pads and rubberized temple tips ensure a secure, no-slip fit even during intense activity. The 8-base wrap provides excellent side coverage, blocking wind and peripheral glare.
Measuring 70mm lens width, 17mm bridge, and 130mm temples (in the Asian Fit version; standard fit varies slightly), the Banyans offer a large, wraparound fit that works well for medium to large faces. The taller lens height compared to the Makaha or Ho’okipa means more vertical coverage—a real advantage on the water or the golf course. These frames are also prescription-ready, so you can enjoy Maui Jim’s legendary optics with your Rx.
