The Maui Jim Ho’okipa Reader Universal Fit MJ807 combines premium polarized sun protection with discreet bifocal magnification—no more juggling two pairs of glasses when you’re reading by the pool or checking your phone on the boat. Named after the Hawaiian word “ho’okipa,” meaning hospitality, these rimless reader sunglasses deliver the comfort and visual clarity Maui Jim is known for, with a nearly invisible bifocal built right into the lens.
Every pair features Maui Jim’s patented PolarizedPlus2 lens technology, which eliminates 99.9% of glare and blocks 100% of harmful UV rays. Unlike ordinary sunglasses that simply darken your view, PolarizedPlus2 lenses enhance the colors your eyes naturally perceive—reds, greens, and blues pop with vivid saturation and greater depth perception. The lenses incorporate rare earth elements and multiple coatings, including anti-reflective treatment on the back to eliminate bounce-back glare, and a water- and oil-resistant coating on the front that makes smudges and sunscreen easy to wipe away.
The Ho’okipa Reader is built with MauiBrilliant lens material—Maui Jim’s most advanced optics that deliver clarity nearly as crisp as glass at just one-third the weight. Available in multiple lens colors including HCL Bronze (a warm, high-contrast tint ideal for everyday conditions), Neutral Grey (maximum light reduction for bright sunlight), and Maui HT (high-transmission for lower light), you can choose the tint that matches how you spend your time outdoors.
The bifocal element is positioned in the lower portion of the lens where you need it for reading, checking your watch, or tying a fishing lure—but it’s almost invisible to anyone looking at you. Available in three magnification strengths (+1.5, +2.0, and +2.5), the readers let you see fine print clearly without switching glasses. One owner noted, “the reader lenses are well hidden—people can’t tell they are readers looking at you.” Another long-time user shared they’re on their sixth pair, calling the reader size “just the right size” for practical use.
The Universal Fit designation means these frames are designed with slightly different nose pad geometry to better accommodate those with higher cheekbones or a wider nose bridge, providing all-day comfort without slipping.
The semi-rimless rectangular frame is constructed from Grilamid, a lightweight polymer with extreme bending strength that retains its shape even during intense activity. At just 64mm lens width, 17mm bridge, and 130mm temples, the Ho’okipa offers a medium fit that complements a wide range of face shapes. The fixed saddle-style bridge features adjustable, non-slip Rubberon nose pads, and the temples have extra-grip rubber ends to keep the frames secure whether you’re on a boat, hiking a trail, or simply relaxing outdoors.
Anti-corrosive stainless steel pin hinges provide lightweight strength and long-term durability. The gloss finish gives the frames a sleek, modern look that works equally well for men and women.
Available in multiple frame and lens combinations—from classic Gloss Black with Neutral Grey to Tortoise with HCL Bronze and Translucent Smoke Grey with Maui HT—the Ho’okipa Reader Universal Fit delivers the visual performance and style you expect from Maui Jim, with the added convenience of built-in magnification exactly when you need it.
