Does anybody knows who and where makes sunglasses for Maui Jim?
Is it possible that they are made in China?

BTW I dont see Jerry posting on the board anymore:bbg:

Lenny,

Maui Jims are made by Maui Jim. They have a lab in Indiana, I believe. They use Flexon frames in some of their models. Their lenses are made by them, for them.

I know that there home office is in Peoria, but my rep didn't mention anything about a lab being there.

There's a lab there, too. It's new.

Wow! What a concept..."Made in USA".

I know most of their frames are Italian, but it nice to see that the lenses are homegrown.

That's cool.

You ever wonder how Maui Jim got an adress like that in Illinois?
Turns out that when they built the offices it was a new development and they got to name the street.
