Maui Jim Mannikin Sunglasses: PDB Tested No. 189

Does the grass look greener on the other side? It does if you’re testing a pair of Mannikin Maui Jim sunglasses! Take one peek through the HCL Bronze lens and you’ll see why they’re perfect for a variety of weather conditions from noon sun to overcast skies, thanks to the high-quality contrast and light touch of bronze tinting (you can also order this pair in Neutral Grey or Maui Rose). Designed with SuperThin glass and high-grade, injection-molded nylon frames, they’re also scratch-resistant and 20 percent lighter and thinner than conventional glass lenses. Pair that with the saddle-style nose bridge with rubber pads and you’ll agree these are both durable and extremely comfortable. Also boasting PolarizedPlus2, Maui Jim’s patented color-infused lens technology, these sunglasses eliminate 99.9 percent of glare and 100 percent of all harmful UV rays, all while making colors pop with clear contrast and improved depth perception and definition. Let me tell you, your eyes will really appreciate these facts.

The Mannikin sunglasses, among the latest designs just released this summer, have a subtle curve reminiscent of a vintage cat-eye style. For men, check out their masculine counterpart, Flat Island, for high-end eyewear that also exudes that exotic Hawaiian feel. At $249, the price might not be for everyone, but anyone can appreciate the obvious quality and visual appeal that goes into crafting these beautiful sunglasses.
