Waimea Ao

~ 2025 New Style ~

Protect your eyes in style with the original Waimea Ao polarized bamboo wood sunglasses by Lani Shades. The Lani Shades Waimea Ao goes with the flow, inspired by the waves of Waimea Bay on Oahu's North Shore. Ao is the Hawaiian word for cloud. We love clouds in Hawaii, they bring the rain and rain brings the rainbows.

The Waimea Ao is made of sustainable bamboo that is durably dyed the color of the clouds that fly over our islands. Available with classic Mist gray or Akala pink/ gold mirrored lenses. 

All Lani Shades bamboo and wood sunglasses feature UV400 Polarized Lani TAC scratch resistant lenses - highest quality lenses in expertly handcrafted bamboo wood frames that are comfortable, lightweight and durable. All Lani Shades sunglasses are equipped with stainless steel spring hinges for comfort and fit. Each also comes with a sturdy bamboo tube case, microfiber cleaning cloth, pouch and worry free guarantee.

Designed by sailors in Hawaii in the search for the perfect sunglasses to have on the water. Lani Shades bamboo and wood sunglasses frames float and if they float away, that's less plastic on the beach. Each pair sold plants a tree through our partnership with One Tree Planted.
