    I'm going to Hawaii in 3 weeks and I wanted to get a pair of Maui Jim's
    for the trip, but if they're cheaper in the place where the sunglasses
    originated, then I can wait and buy them there.

    Does anyone know if Maui Jim sunglasses are cheaper in Hawaii?

    No, Maui Jim Sunglasses are priced the same amount around the globe.
    You are smarter to buy them near your home. I suggest an eyecare
    professional.. you will get great service, warranty information and any
    adjustments that are needed.

    Have fun!

    "Maui Jim" sunglasses get their name from their inventor, who patented
    a technology that involves multiple layers of coatings. He was an avid
    surfer in Hawaii, hence the name. The corporate headquarters for Maui
    Jim is in central Illinois, which is about as far from surfing as you
    can get. ;)

    It is my experience that the are about the same prices, but I think
    this January we should all go to Maui to verify.
