Fantastic products and Service
Just like a previous review and like many others, I sometimes do not treat the sunglasses as I should, and a few times they needed some repair, the Customer Service Team is amazing, they help immediately with all the requirements and provided a fantastic service. Definitely, the best sunglasses on the market ( I tried some other famous brand as well) with excellent Customer Service surpassed by none other.

I have been wearing Maui Jim sunglasses whenever I go outside for probably 20 years or more. They are a dream to wear, and I would not purchase any other brand. As like many others, I am sure, I sometimes do not treat the sunglasses as I should, and on the rare occasion I send them in for service. The Customer Service Team are super fast in dealing with repairs, they keep me informed as to what is happening, and in no time my glasses are returned as good as new. Definitely a quality product with excellent Customer Service surpassed by none other.
... Read moreMaui Jim really knows about service.
I have had my Maui Jim sunglasses for at least 8 years. I have sent them in for repairs about 4 times for repairs that really had nothing to do with the quality of the product (i.e. I scratched the lenses). Their service beats everyone else's. The process was easy to follow, they send an email when they receive the glasses and fix the glasses promptly. They send the glasses back quickly and only once have I been charged. Sometimes, they even send me a new case. Wow! I highly recommend Maui Jim.

I have owned Maui Jim sunglasses for the past 6 years and not only are the glasses fantastic but the service for warranty and repairs that Maui Jim provide is awesome. They keep you updated with the repairs. Their service is easy, quick and efficient. The glasses are comfortable and the lenses are unbelievable. I will only purchase Maui Jim. Thank you Maui Jim you truly are the best!!!!!!!
Quality Product And Brilliant After Sales Service
My partner purchased me my first pair of Maui Jim's for Christmas last year and they are the best pair of sunglasses I have ever owned. They are so comfortable I forget they are on my face and the lens are top quality. My partner recently sent his Maui Jim in for repair as he scratched the lens. His glasses were returned within one week and they look like a new pair of glasses. We were kept up to date every step of the way with the progress of the repair. We will only wear/purchase Maui Jim glasses as no other brand comes close in quality, style and customer service. Thank you Maui Jim, your the best!!!!
Cheap Packaging Disappointing
I ordered yet another pair of Maui Jim Ho'okipa's after my 11 month old puppy got hold of my fourth pair (!) I've owned Ho'okipa's for years and must have had about 8 pairs. They are lightweight, don't slip, great lenses and look great. This time though I was really disappointed with the packaging. The black flimsy case (made of lightweight cardboard with black fabricate over it (no catch just magnet) and a cheap nasty microfibre cloth to clean them. When I pay $249 for a pair of sunglasses I expect the case and cloth to be of a certain qua
... Read morelity. Not sure what's going on with Maui Jim of late, but it looks like the Chinese have taken over the processing/manufacturing. The previous cases and microfibre cloths have been made of quality materials but not this time. The glasses are plastic as it is and clearly not worth $249, they are probably made for about $10, the rest goes into advertising/profit. My comments for the company are pick up your game Maui Jim, when paying a considerable amount for the sunglasses, don't make them look cheap and nasty by providing substandard accessories.Find out how Maui Jim compares to other Optical Retailers

I expected more
Bought a pair of prescription MJ. Within 2 months the lens started to separate from the frame. On warranty claim it was suggested I’d left them in the sun. Never left sunglasses in the sun in 30 yrs. They said on viewing for warranty the glasses were in perfect ‘as new’ condition So a few months later the other lens did the same - same questions. Glasses were essentially as new with 1 hr wear a day. So I paid over $1k aud for this ? Then the case breaks ..again I’m questioned ...again they view & say it’s in perfect condition (I use the case every time ) . Not what I expect for that money guys. Good lenses but fitting worse than any $300 of sunnies I’ve owned over my lifetime
Fantastic after sales care
I am now on my second pair of MJ’s in 7 years.
I would never usually buy expensive sunnies as I am pretty hard on them, but my wife purchased them for me as a gift.
On both pairs I have been clumsy enough to drop, throw and sit on them and they finally give way to the inevitable. Both pairs have been sent to the repair centre in Frenchs Forest and have come back almost new for minimal expense (service charge).
My next new pair will definitely be another pair of MJ’s. I can honestly recommend them.
... Read moreGreat Sunglasses Dismal warranty and service
One of the Lenses fell out of my glasses and cracked.
Returned them with the damaged lens which clearly showed that the damage had occurred after the lens had dislodged.
Glasses were repaired at my expense, but can not understand how a lens falling out of the frame can not be considered a warranty issue.

Best Sunglasses I've owned
I'm onto my third pair now (still have the first two) and swap between all of them. They're great, the after sales service and support is brilliant. When I dropped one of my pairs, I managed to put a nice scratch on the one lense, Maui Jim replaced both lenses (which I paid for) but while it was there they also replaced one of the arms which they said was faulty. I thought it was fine and replaced the two nose grippy things for free.
The Polarised lenses make a big difference and they're well built and super comfy.
Great Product and Service
I have two pairs of MJ sunnies, a pair of Mavericks and a pair of Wiki Wiki. I have found they are the most comfortable to wear being light weight and the quality is about as good as it gets. I had an issue with the lens of the mavericks and they were replaced without question. The only other company I have found to have similar customer service in Australia is Bose Audio.

I've owned my Mauis now for eight years and recently broke the arm off them, getting them out of my jacket. I took them to a Maui Jim dealer, who sent them back to Maui Jim for repair at NO COST. Dropped them off Monday, they were back Wednesday with two new arms in a new hard case. A fantastic experience from a brilliant company. We will never buy anything else.

Owned 2 pairs of these and both are going back for the 3rd time for lenses popping out. I too was asked do you wear them on your head ? Of course I do they are sunglasses. Expensive and unreliable !

After accidentally breaking a lens of my prized Maui Jim sunglasses I sent them for repair on the 6th May from NZ, today 15th May I received them back from Frenchs Forest Road in Australia complete with new lens. Not only that but they also included the other lens from the new pair PLUS did not charge me for the service itself as goodwill. Fantastic exceptional service thank you so much!!!
Great customer support and loyalty
I was given a pair of MJ 407-02 sunglasses for Xmas, I dropped them and in attempting to catch them snapped them in half when I grabbed them. Loving the sunglasses I sent them in to get repaired, I received a call to say that since they were in great condition, they would fix them under an act of good will...great customer service, with friendly staff

I've Worked out I've spent $3,353 on Maui Jims in the last 15 years and have had nothing but good things to say about them until recently. The reason I've always bought Maui's and spent the extra money is that if I ever had a problem they would stand by their product and fix it free of charge. It's no longer the case, they charged me because they believed that the sunglasses were damaged on my part by, get this... wearing them on my head! This must be a common excuse because I hadn't even told them if I'd worn them on my head but I found it sur

Can't believe a company can treat their loyal customers with so little care, really disappointed and won't be buying them again. Spent thousands with them and felt they had to charge me $140 because THEY sold me defective glasses. Doesn't get any worse!An unexpected gesture of goodwill...
I received a pair of 'Hot Sands' Maui Jim sunglasses for Christmas in 2016. They were a great gift and I looked really cool in them (well... I thought so, at least). However, I must have used a grubby or gritty cloth to clean the lenses at one point, because I put my glasses on one day and everything looked smudged and hazy, as if there were fingerprints all over the lenses. Basically, they were no good anymore. So finally I decided to send them to the Maui Jim Frenchs Forest repair centre on January 14 this year (2019) to have the lenses repla

I was unaware that this is their busy period for minor repairs, etc, so after three weeks of not hearing from anybody I sent a somewhat grumpy email asking what was happening with the glasses and why I hadn't been notified that they'd been received and "blah, blah, blah", etc. Immediately Todd (one of the repair technicians) and Renee (a customer service officer) replied to apologise for not having previously contacted me, stating that my glasses had in fact been overlooked due to the busy period, and that they were working with a new upgraded phone system, which was causing chaos in their office. To my surprise however, due to the delay and for keeping me in suspense for so long, Todd offered to replace the lenses free of charge. I was blown away by that generosity, and even more so when they were returned immediately and now seem even better than before! I probably look even cooler now too!! To cut a long story short, apart from their sunnies being of first class quality and amazing to see the world through, the Maui Jim repair team and the customer service staff all deserve 5 stars (at least when they remember where they put your glasses). Top marks!!!!Nice lenses, fantastic customer service !!!
I'm very happy with the sun Maui Jim glasses, got 3 pairs, yesterday I snap one, Today I went to the shop in Frenchs Forest, they repair the one broken and replace Nose pads and Temples to the second pair for free !!!
Whoooo Thank you for excellent customer service.
Great sun glasses and fantastic service
We love Maui Jim sunglasses. They have polarised lenses and are well made. My girlfriend's Maui Jims had lens damage. I was quoted $130 to replace the lenses. I posted them to their repair centre as requested and they repaired them and sent them back with no charge! The invoice said "Aloha Friday" goodwill. This is fantastic service.
Great Customer/Repair service from Maui Jims
I never write reviews but I had such a good experience with Maui Jims here I am.
My last 3 sets of sunnies have been Maui Jims as you can't go past the quality of the polarised lens. My last pair I'd had for close to 2yrs and had some scratches so I sent them back via the online form, very easy process.
And they returned them FOC with new lenses. Very happy with the service and will continue to buy Maui Jims Sunglasses.
Thank you for great customer service
Used to be a Raving Fan - No more :(
The lens quality has changed. Used to have "PC - BG" Grey Lenses on my Ho'okipa's. When at the shops and replacing, I was told they have changed the lens type to "MP - BG". This means PolyCarbonate is now
MauiPure.
The beautiful rich blues that I used to see when looking through the the PC lens are replaced with a nasty green hue. The lens is what made Maui Jim special. Without the PC lens I can no longer recommend the brand - I'm really really disappointed to have to search for a new brand.
I contacted Maui Jim in Feb/March this year and they couldn't track find any of the older style.
Website is faulty! Do not use this online retailer.
Website would not process my online order and kept giving a 'cannot process your transaction at this time' error message, all the while charging my credit card every time I made an attempt. Only discovered this after my account had been charged 5 TIMES. Finally had to place an order over the phone, and was not told one pair of glasses would be on back order until I received an invoice days later. All in all, this was one of the worst customer experiences I have ever had. Do not use this online retailer, go somewhere else to purchase your Maui Jims. Absolutely love their product, but their website and customer service are TERRIBLE!
Efficient and high quality throughout order
The customer service I received throughout the process was of an exceptionally high quality and when the glasses were ready it took less than one business day to ship more than 1000km. Very impressive. Big thanks to the warehouse lead, Michael, who was in charge of my order and kept me well informed along the way. I am very happy with my purchase!
Easiest way to shop ever! Love it!
So stoked to finally have the sunnies I've always wanted. So easy to find and choose a pair to suit. Great service and prices.
Fantastic Service
I've had my Maui's sunny's for about 3 years and the lenses were getting a bit scrached, they are the glass lens type. I sent them back to get new lenses and was fully expecting to be charged for new ones. They came back free of charge. Thank you Maui Jim. This is why it is worth buying quality sunglasses.
What a bloody great company!
Got 2 pairs of Maui Jim; one broken temple and one with scratched lens. I called Maui Jim repair centre, a replacement temple was sent within a few days. I posted the scratched pair to them and received it back just over a week fully repaired. All done with seamless process and without charges - amazing company! This kind of service definitely wins my loyalty.
Exceptional Service
I took a pair of sunnies (MJ Sports Makaha) that I stupidly snapped the arm off this morning, to the service centre to enquire about getting them fixed. The fellow who greeted me, said he'd fix them on the spot. No charge!
I was also wearing my MJ Waterways which had a hairline crack in the frame. I thought I may as well ask how much to fix them whilst I was there... He had a look and said he'd ALSO fix those (replaced the frame!) while he was at it. No charge!!
I also want to buy another pair of sunglasses (Hookipas), and the same fellow very expertly guided me through a couple of options.
Unbelievable service and Customer Care. I would never buy any other brand of sunglasses based on this experience!
Fantastic customer service!
My sunglasses were well over warranty but I needed to have one of the arms repaired. This is the second time I sent them for repairs past the warranty date. Once again, I have received them back within a week, repaired, no cost. In the past I've had a bigger repair done on another pair also out of warranty, for a small cost, very happy.
Excellent customer service, Maui Jim has me for life!
Amazing service
Thank you so much for the great customer service, I am so impressed, nothing was a problem. I had two pairs be repaired through my own negligence they have both been repaired and back to me in a week. They are like brand new glasses. Fantastic service can’t thank you enough.
Excellent service
I have had a pair of Maui Jim sunglasses for a couple of years-wear them nearly everyday-so comfortable!
Unfortunately the arm on my glasses broke recently so I sent them off for repair. They were fixed for no cost & returned within a week, repaired, cleaned & like brand new!! Fantastic customer service.
EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE
MY sunglasses lenses shattered (my fault), sent them off to get fixed and they did it for nothing, fantastic company, would highly recomend,
also posted back to me very promptly. Brilliant service.
Outstanding service!
I bought a pair of Maui Jim sunglasses a while ago - (great product!) - and recently the lenses developed some cracks. Maui Jim replaced the lenses for free!....and super fast!
Rare to receive such fantastic service,Cannot recommend them highly enough!! :)
Wow!!
These sunglasses are phenomenal. By far the best I’ve ever owned. Very comfortable. Great performance. After sales service is incredible. I needed a replacement case and the Maui Jim distributor sent one straight out. No questions. Shame the same can’t be said about Vision Direct, who I bought the glasses through. They did not want to know about me. But Maui Jim? Brilliant.
Corrections
They are an awsome company who looks after their customers, they are not the retailer who provides a bad service,trouble with retailers, ring maui jim office,you will be looked after in a most caring and professional way,they have no trouble getting repeat business, ever.
Faulty lenses.
Bought some Maui Jim sun glasses ( 3rd pair). Some how the film on this pair of sun glasses started coming off. Glasses was just out of warranty, when I went back to store where purchased. Had recipt with me, but owner said I would have no chance with Maui Jims, as just out of warranty. Few mths. later decided to contact Maui Jim anyway. Prompt replies and send glasses to service centre in NSW. Just over a week later, new lenses and nose pads, no questions asked.
Can't believe the fantastic service. Thank you Maui Jim, will definetly buy Maui Jim again, but not from the same shop.
The best sunglasses in the world
I own four pairs of Maui Jims having purchased my first pair in Maui back in 2006. They are without doubt the best glasses on the market. Better still, if it is possible, is the backup service. I have broken a lens in two different pairs of Maui Jims. Both were repaired at no cost and mailed back to me within a week of my first mailing of them. Just fantastic!
Awesome Customer service
My Hubby Johns glasses slipped off his head & frame broke he was devastated:(
Rang Maui Jim French’s Forest & they said send them up &we will take a look.
They arrived back by courier looks like new pair absolutely awesome company second to none.
Can’t thank you enough Maui Jim and he also lay buyed another pair at Echuca Optical with different coloured lens.
