Was The World’s ‘Northern-Most Island’ Erased From Charts?
by Kevin Hamilton (University of Hawaii) In 2021, an expedition off the icy northern Greenland coast spotted what appeared to be a previously uncharted island. It was small and gravelly,...
I used to be a pretty die hard fan of Maui Jims, in fact I bought my first of 3 pairs at LL Bean in the early 90s. Since 2005 however, I’ve been wearing the Kaenon Rhino, which is likely the finest pair of ocean-going sunglasses you’ll find on the market today.
Besides the fact they look cool, these Kaenon sunglass lenses are AMAZING. Their proprietary technology provides an extraordinarily sharp and polarized lens but without the added weight found in a glass lens or the distortion typically found in a polycarbonate lens. They are also perfectly tinted to deal with that wicked late afternoon sunlight reflecting off the ocean.
Are you an outdoor athlete?
If so, you’re certainly not wearing sunglasses with glass lenses as they’ll be bouncing all over your nose as you run. Or slipping down your nose as you sweat. The Kaenon Kore provides perfect coverage, ultra light weight, and sharpness while staying on your face no matter how fast you move. These sunglasses sit a bit farther away from your eyes than the Rhino’s, which provides better breathability, and also helps keep the lenses clean as you run.
The price tag is a bit steep, somewhere around $200 via Amazon, but I promise you won’t be disappointed.
