Ray Ban 805289114550 RB3025 W3235 55MM
After many, many years of buying $10 "cheap sunglasses" I finally decided to see if the people who said good glasses were worth it. Unfortunately, after dropping $[...] on a pair of Ray-Ban Aviators, only a year later, they got smashed in a bad bicycle accident. The fact that I ordered a new pair a few days later is a testament to how convinced I am that good sunglasses with glass lenses are worth it.
On the first day, a pair of Aviators don't feel significantly different from the $10 knock-offs. They aren't lighter, the image isn't clearer, the eye protection isn't better, they don't look better on me. But after just a few weeks of mild use, the cheap plastic-lens glasses start to get smudges and tiny scratches, almost too tiny to see. You don't notice it at first because it progresses so slowly and gradually, but little by little, the view through them gets muddled, they get harder to clean, and you start hating them, all without even realizing. One day you get new ones and the sudden contrast is striking -- wow, these are so much better! That's your only clue for how bad the old ones really had gotten by such slow stages you never noticed.
Glass-lens, good quality sunglasses are like that first day every day. They don't develop the smudges, the scratches, the difficulty with being cleaned, the gradual degradation of quality. The day that I lost them, they were as crisp and clear, they looked as good, they fit as well, and they worked as well as the first day.
If they cost ten times as much, they ought to last ten times as long to be worth it. And assuming you don't sit on them, lose them, or get into a bike accident with them on like I did, they should do that easily. But even if they don't quite last that long, they might still be worth it. After all, ten pairs of cheap sunglasses that are smudgy and unpleasant to wear for at least half of their lives is not as nice an experience as one pair that's wonderful every day.

ray bans are awesome. i got the XL polarized aviators... not sure if these are catered more towards guys, but i'm a girl and i like the size of the frames on me. the polarization really makes a difference. the nose pads were kinda far away from each other when i first got them, but i carefully adjusted them and brought them in a bit. it's totally fine now and fits well.
BalasHapusI'd been wanting Ray-Ban aviators for a long time. My brother has a different pair, and I was constantly stealing his. So, I finally took the plunge, and I could NOT be happier with them! They seem like they'd be flattering on basically any face shape. The sides are very thin, so I'm a bit paranoid that I'll break them. But I absolutely LOVE the way they look. If you're at all interested in buying these, don't hesitate! They are perfect. I'll be wearing mine everywhere I go.
BalasHapusI have a pair of new wayfarers which I love, and decided I wanted some aviators. I chose gunmetal grey, g-15 XLT, nice understated color, and not mirror lenses. But beyond being absolutely sure which color I wanted, I ended up being the Goldilocks of sunglasses.
BalasHapusFirst I got the small 52mm aviators, which ended up being WAY too small for me. I learned the hard way that the mm sizes is not specifically the distance across your face, it's the size of each lens. I have the 52mm in the new wayfarers which fit perfectly, so don't let that lead you to a size in aviators, because the size doesn't translate. So then I got the 55mm in the aviators and they were a tad snug on the side of my face. Then I ordered the 58mm. These seem to be the best choice for me and I realllly love them. They're lightweight and comfortable.
In the end, I learned the mm size will have a little to do with the distance across the face, being the lens get bigger, but it just wasn't as cut and dry as I thought. It's really best to try these on in person before ordering to know which size fits you best. Good luck!
BalasHapusLove these glasses. Light weight; could wear for hours, in or out doors. Had ordered 55mm but a little bit too small for my face which is a little smaller than average. Perfect size 58mm. Best part, got it Super fast; ordered today, shipped within 2 hours, got it in a day. Will order from them again! Totally recommend it.
BalasHapusThese aviators are an all time classic and never go out of style. I have used this model for last 15+ years and when I recently had to get a replacement, I thought ok, let's try some options. So I tried a few models and after a few weeks of experimentation, landed back on these. These are well made (in Italy, not in China, may I add), stylish, and will always be in style. Notice that even the best of brands like LV, Prada, etc are in style - out of style....these aren't cyclical. And if you take care of these, they can last a very long time.
BalasHapusAs for the service, they came ahead of time, new and shiny, and in perfect packing with warranty etc.

BalasHapusI have been using the same Ray Ban model of sunglasses (polarized version more recently) for over 30 years. Ray Ban has always made a quality product, and I found early on that if you pay more for sunglasses you will make every effort to take care of them. I usually get 5 to 6 years out of each pair. With that said, the search for a new pair (mine finally broke after 6 years) comes down to price and the seller's reputation. After considerable research I settled on this seller and got an incredible deal and they shipped it amazingly fast. I got it 3 days before the estimated shipping date. I highly recommend Ray Ban and this seller.
