DESCRIPTION RATINGS & REVIEWS PRESCRIPTION GUIDE

The Maui Jim LAULIMA MJ626 sunglasses bring a contemporary edge to the brand's legendary rimless design. Inspired by the iconic Ho'okipa, the Laulima (pronounced "laow-lee-mah") updates that classic silhouette with a sleeker rectangular lens shape and refined details that work equally well for active pursuits and everyday wear.

Lightweight Performance Meets Hawaiian Heritage

At just 18 grams, the Laulima's rimless nylon frame virtually disappears on your face. The Japanese-made construction features adjustable rubber nose pads and temple tips with Maui Jim's signature wavy pattern, ensuring a secure, slip-free fit even during movement. The 61mm lens width and 14mm bridge deliver a medium-to-large fit, while the rimless design opens up your peripheral vision—no frame edges blocking your view of the world around you.

The aerial-view script logo on the temples and signature slash details on the nose pads add subtle brand recognition without overwhelming the minimalist aesthetic. Available in five distinct colorways—from matte black with neutral grey lenses to shiny red havana with Hawaii Lava—each combination pairs frame finish with purpose-built lens tints.

PolarizedPlus2 Technology: See the Difference

Every Laulima lens features Maui Jim's patented PolarizedPlus2 technology, which eliminates 99.9% of glare while enhancing color and contrast. Unlike ordinary sunglasses that simply darken your view, PolarizedPlus2 uses a proprietary blend of rare earth elements to boost reds, greens, and blues, revealing vivid detail in every condition. The lenses block 100% of harmful UV rays and filter high-energy visible (HEV) blue light, protecting your long-term eye health.

The MauiPure lens material combines optics nearly as crisp as glass with excellent scratch and shatter resistance—and a fraction of the weight. It's Maui Jim's most popular lens material for good reason: you get SuperThin Glass clarity without the bulk. Lens options include Neutral Grey for bright sunlight, HCL Bronze for everyday versatility, Blue Hawaii and Hawaii Lava mirrors for style and glare reduction, and Maui HT for enhanced contrast in variable light.

Prescription-Ready and Built to Last

The Laulima is available with prescription lenses (single vision and progressive) through authorized Maui Jim optical retailers, making it a practical choice if you need vision correction. The durable nylon frame and anti-reflective, oleophobic lens coatings ensure these sunglasses stand up to sunscreen, saltwater, and daily wear while staying easy to clean.

"Very light, which is good for driving." — Zappos customer review

Whether you're on the water, behind the wheel, or exploring the outdoors, the Maui Jim Laulima MJ626 delivers the color, clarity, and comfort that made Maui Jim a favorite among those who demand the best from their eyewear.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the Maui Jim Laulima MJ626 sunglasses available with prescription lenses?

Yes, the Laulima MJ626 is available with prescription lenses including single vision and progressive options. Since prescription lenses are considered a medical device, they must be dispensed through an authorized Maui Jim optical retailer who is also an eye care professional. The frame accommodates a prescription power range of +3.00 to -4.50.

What is the difference between the Laulima and the Ho'okipa?

The Laulima is a contemporary evolution of the iconic Ho'okipa with a more modern rectangular lens shape. Both share the lightweight rimless design and MauiPure lens material, but the Laulima offers a sleeker, more angular silhouette compared to the Ho'okipa's rounded edges. The Laulima measures 61mm lens width with a 14mm bridge, while the standard Ho'okipa is 64mm with a 15mm bridge.

What is MauiPure lens material and how does it compare to glass?

MauiPure is Maui Jim's most popular lens material, combining optics almost as crisp as SuperThin Glass with ultra-lightweight construction and excellent scratch and shatter resistance. It delivers near-glass clarity at a fraction of the weight, making it ideal for all-day comfort. The Laulima weighs just 18 grams thanks to the MauiPure lenses.

Do the Laulima sunglasses provide UV protection?

Yes, all Maui Jim Laulima sunglasses provide 100% protection from harmful UVA and UVB rays. The PolarizedPlus2 lenses also filter high-energy visible (HEV) blue light, which can cause long-term eye damage. Additionally, the polarized lenses eliminate 99.9% of glare from reflective surfaces like water, snow, and pavement.

What face shapes work best with the Laulima rectangular rimless design?

The Laulima's rectangular rimless silhouette complements heart, oblong, oval, and round face shapes particularly well. The 61mm lens width and 14mm bridge provide a medium-to-large fit. The adjustable nose pads allow for customized fit and optical alignment, ensuring comfort across different facial contours.

How do I choose the right lens color for the Laulima?

Neutral Grey offers the highest light reduction for bright, direct sunlight with rich colors and sharp contrast. HCL Bronze is the most versatile for everyday use in changing conditions. Blue Hawaii and Hawaii Lava mirrors add style while reducing glare. Maui HT (High Transmission) provides extra contrast and color in low-light conditions and is excellent for golf.

Maui Jim Laulima MJ626 vs. Ho'okipa MJ407 vs. Lighthouse MJ423

Choosing between Maui Jim's rimless sunglasses comes down to style preference, fit, and budget. The Laulima MJ626 represents the brand's most contemporary take on the rimless design, while the Ho'okipa and Lighthouse offer proven performance at lower price points.

Laulima: The Modern Evolution

The Laulima MJ626 ($199.23) is the newest member of the rimless family, drawing inspiration from the Ho'okipa but updating it with a sleeker rectangular lens shape and refined details. At 61mm lens width with a 14mm bridge, it fits medium-to-large faces. The signature wavy pattern on temple tips, aerial-view script logo, and contemporary colorways make it the most style-forward option. If you want the latest design with premium finishing touches, the Laulima is your choice.

Ho'okipa: The Iconic Original

The Ho'okipa MJ407 ($158.82–$176.15) is the model that started it all—a trusted companion for outdoor adventures since its introduction. Its more rounded lens shape and slightly larger 64mm width suit those who prefer classic styling or need a bigger fit. Available in standard, XLarge, and Ultra versions, the Ho'okipa family offers the most size options. It's also more affordable, making it an excellent entry point into Maui Jim's rimless collection.

Lighthouse: The Value Pick

The Lighthouse MJ423 ($142.60–$183.85) splits the difference with a rectangular rimless design at the lowest price. It shares the same MauiPure lenses and PolarizedPlus2 technology as the Laulima but with simpler temple detailing. If you prioritize optical performance over premium aesthetics, the Lighthouse delivers exceptional value.

Which Should You Choose?

Choose the Laulima if you want the most modern rectangular design with premium details and don't mind paying a bit more. Go with the Ho'okipa if you prefer the classic rounded look, need size flexibility, or want to save $20–40. Pick the Lighthouse if you're after rectangular styling at the best price and don't need the latest design refinements.

All three deliver Maui Jim's legendary color enhancement, glare elimination, and UV protection. You can't go wrong—it's just a matter of which style speaks to you.
