Rayban Glasses
About Rayban
Ray-Ban produces a wide collection of market-leading prescription glasses that mixes old school glamour with function and fashion. Underlying all Ray Ban glasses is the innate ability to blend practicality and cutting edge technology with striking design.
Chances are you’d recognise the iconic Ray-Ban glasses in any situation. The legendary Aviator frames are ever popular worldwide both as glasses and sunglasses, as are the Wayfarers. Innately retro in design and appearance the Wayfarer glasses have seen a dramatic resurgence in their popularity thanks to the trend for ‘Geek Chic’ being championed by stars such as Jay Z, Drew Barrymore and many more of today’s style conscious celebrities and trendsetters.
The Ray-Ban models are available as prescription glasses, along with oversized option in the men’s and women’s collections. Inspiration from previous eras has captured the imagination of Ray-Ban and they are notorious for issuing classic glasses with forward thinking twists. They align modern innovation and design with their heritage in classic frames.
Men’s and women’s frames include memory metal options that represent the perfect option for people who lead active lives and demand their glasses stand up to tough treatment. Ray-Ban’s Memo-Ray frames are a nickel-titanium mix that is corrosion-resistant and fits comfortably irrespective of head size. The titanium in the frame is as strong as steel but only 60% its density meaning that these frames offer the best of both worlds, being lightweight and virtually indestructible.
Ray-Ban optical frames allow you to count on precision eyewear every time. This includes titanium frames that have undergone 10 years of product testing for optimum performance.
All Ray-Ban glasses are delivered to you with an Italian made authentic leather case/pouch and a Ray-Ban lens cloth.
A history of Rayban
A US export, Ray-Ban was first produced in 1937 for the United States Army fighter pilots. Their meticulous quality and design made them popular with the public and interest in their brand grew, as did their reputation. They also have much to thank Hollywood for over the years, as Ray-Ban has played an iconic role in many a blockbuster dating back to the 1950’s from Breakfast at Tiffany’s to Blues Brothers to Reservoir Dogs and Top Gun.
Much off the back of this worldwide exposure and the widely copied Aviators, Ray-Ban grew to become one of the most iconic and best recognised glasses brands in the world today. It’s no longer only the Americans who are in love with the best-selling eyewear brand in the world.
