Maui Jim GOOD FUN vs. Other Popular Square Frames
The Maui Jim GOOD FUN MJ871 sits in the sweet spot of Maui Jim's fashion square collection—offering playful style, excellent coverage, and lightweight comfort at a mid-range price. Here's how it compares to other popular options in our collection.
GOOD FUN vs. Honi (Cat-Eye Alternative)
If you're deciding between the GOOD FUN's square shape and the Honi MJ758 cat-eye design, consider your style preference and face shape. The GOOD FUN offers more coverage with its butterfly-shaped lenses and works universally across face shapes, while the Honi delivers a more vintage, feminine aesthetic that's become one of Maui Jim's best-sellers. Both feature embedded nose pads and the same PolarizedPlus2 technology at nearly identical prices ($222–$225). Choose the GOOD FUN if you want a modern, playful look with maximum coverage; go with the Honi for timeless cat-eye elegance.
GOOD FUN vs. Pua (Oversized Square)
The Pua MJ865 is Maui Jim's statement-making oversized square frame. While both models share a square aesthetic, the Pua features bold acetate construction and significantly larger lenses for those who want maximum drama and sun protection. The GOOD FUN is lighter (nylon vs. acetate), more affordable ($222 vs. $292–$307), and better suited for all-day comfort. If you prefer a bold, fashion-forward look and don't mind the extra weight and cost, the Pua delivers. For versatile everyday wear with playful color options, the GOOD FUN is the smarter choice.
GOOD FUN vs. Orchid (Classic Square)
The Orchid MJ735 offers a more traditional square-rectangular shape at a slightly lower price ($201–$224). While both frames deliver the same exceptional PolarizedPlus2 lens technology, the GOOD FUN stands out with its distinctive fade colorations and butterfly-shaped lenses that provide extra coverage. The Orchid is a solid choice for those who prefer understated, classic styling, but the GOOD FUN's playful design and superior coverage make it the better value for customers who want their sunglasses to express personality while delivering technical performance.
Bottom line: The GOOD FUN MJ871 offers the best combination of style, comfort, and coverage in Maui Jim's square frame lineup. Its lightweight nylon construction, embedded nose pads, and playful fade colors make it ideal for active lifestyles, while the butterfly-shaped PolarizedPlus2 lenses deliver the exceptional clarity and UV protection Maui Jim is famous for.
