Maui Jim Banyans READER x2.5 - Tortoise Frame with HCL Lens

Maui Jim Banyans READER x2.5 - Tortoise Frame with HCL Lens are polarized sunglasses with reading lenses designed for an active lifestyle and outdoor use. The model is named after the legendary Banyans surf spot on the west side of Maui and is designed to be lightweight, durable, and comfortable to wear. The reading strength of x2.5 makes it easier to read maps, gauges, and small details in bright light, and the PolarizedPlus2 technology reduces glare and provides 100% UV protection. The Tortoise Reader 25 frame and HCL Bronze lens offer a warm contrast in varying conditions.

At the core of the optics is the MauiBrilliant lens material, which provides nearly glass-like clarity at about one-third the weight of glass. This reduces the weight of the glasses and improves comfort during extended wear. The frame fit is designed for smaller faces, and the rimless-inspired, streamlined silhouette reduces weight and enhances the field of view. A protective case and cleaning cloth are included, and the product comes with a two-year warranty against material and manufacturing defects.

The HCL Bronze lenses are versatile for varying light conditions due to their warm brown tint. The PolarizedPlus2 technology eliminates up to 99.9% of glare and blocks 100% of harmful UV rays. Water- and oil-repellent coatings make the lenses easier to clean, as water beads off and fingerprints are easy to wipe away. Optically precise, distortion-free lenses not only reduce brightness but also enhance natural light to improve colors and contrast. The layered lens construction improves durability and clarity, reducing glare from all surfaces and enhancing visibility, for example, on and below the water surface.
