It’s safe to say these Aloha Friday sunglasses don’t only offer you style, but also the quality protection your eyes deserve.

The Kolohe (below) from Maui Jim has retro style in abundance! The Kolohe design is based on some of Maui Jim’s original designs crafted by the company on the beaches of Maui during the brands early days. So if your a fan of retro styling, then these are another tasteful choice.

Vintage details is what makes these frames so appealing, but these Kolohe sunglasses are definitely updated with some trend-worthy flavour. The Kolohe showcases craftsmanship, with lightweight nylon frames that also boast these fine filigree-scrolled silver temples and nose bridge. A vintage modern twist that I certainly have eyes for!
