Exceeded my expectations

Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2015

Verified Purchase

I admit, I've been buying, almost exclusively, Wayfarer and Clubmaster knock-off sunglasses for over 30 years. I've always liked the styles, but $5-$40 a pop buys a wide variety of quality, not necessarily dependent on their cost, and they are seldom good for more than a couple seasons regardless of price.

A little while back I finally bought a pair of authentic Clubmaster eyeglass frames (yes my eyes are getting old, imagine that) and have been very pleased with the classic Clubmaster styling (small alterations of the cut on some knock-offs can make a large difference in appearance), as well as the exceptional quality of the frames (compared to the knock-offs, at least, some of which only lasted a couple weeks at best before lenses or arms were falling off; always disappointing).

I found myself in need of a pair of sunglasses and decided it was time to splurge for some authentic Wayfarers. I was reluctant ordering online regarding exactly which style and size of wayfarer would best suit my face. I came down on the original Wayfarer style, as I tend to favor the original classic look, and I got lucky, as these (50-22) were the perfect fit for me.

My ultimate appreciation though was regarding the quality of the frames. They are heavy and solid and obviously built to endure. I'd also bought a second hundred dollar pair of glasses in a similar style from another popular maker at the same time to decide which style I liked better and best suited me -- and though I really like the style (as much as, though not more than the Wayfarers) they are much lighter. Some people may like the lighter frames, but they just do not feel as substantial to me -- being more reminiscent of the feel of the knock-offs I'd always considered temporary throw-away glasses.

Ultimately, I will say that I am pleased enough with this purchase that I've actually taken the time to put it into writing.

As always the Amazon shopping experience, the item being very well packaged, the knowledge of free returns if necessary, and the prompt two-day Prime shipping were also much appreciated.

The Original is still the best!

Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2012

I ordered this style (RB2140) in both Classic black w/crystal green lenses, and in Tortoise w/crystal brown lenses - both in 50mm size and both POLARIZED. I live at the beach and polarization is a must. I haven't noticed any interference with LCD screens as mentioned in some reviews of the polarized lenses.

These are beautiful glasses, nice sturdy weight, trademark slant, no creaking. They feel snug and secure on my face and when propped on my head (yes, a no-no but I can't help it sometimes).

I previously tried the New Wayfarer (RB2132) in the 54mm size and sent them back. They were lighter than these Originals but the hinges creaked and they were too big. I am a tall female with what I would consider an average size head/face.

One note about the Tortoise - they are dark...almost look solid brown until you see them in the light. So guys, don't be afraid of these, they aren't feminine...I believe JFK wore the tortoise frame??!!

CON - only one....the is a "P" after the Ray-Ban script logo on the right lens. I didn't expect that.....still getting used to it.

The best old school sunglasses EVER

Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2024

I used to have the Original Wayfarers back in the 80's, always the sturdiest made sunglasses around - and nothing has changed. They STILL are the best and the ones I received didn't disappoint. In fact, I realized that the lens that are made of glass, have a better clarity than plastic ones, which have been present in many of the newer sport sunglasses. I love Maui Jim's and have a pair, but they are best out on the water, than in general daily usage. I chose the RB2140 original frame 50mm, as opposed to the square version or the low bridge option, as I have a "strong" framed nose which elevates the sunglasses at the right height. For those who have a small nose or small nose bridge; I would recommend the low-bridge version at 50mm - not 54mm.

Rogue Physicist

Anytime I buy sunglasses, especially well-known brand name ones (such as Ray Bay, Oakley, etc), I am a little concerned that I might be sent low-quality Chinese-made counterfeit versions. I can say that the sunglasses that were delivered to me passed all the authenticity tests. You can go to google and search for Ray Bay authenticity and find various ways to check.

This is my third Wayfarers. Although I no longer have any of my previous, Bausch & Lomb Wayfarers for comparison purposes, these Luxottica Wayfarers met my expectations.

Thankfully, Luxottica has not (yet) moved production of these to China.

UPDATE:

I bought another set of sunglasses. The previous ones were 50mm ( I could have swore I ordered 54mm). I gave them to my son and ordered 54mm. Again, the glasses that arrived were authentic, as far as I could tell. They passed all the authenticity tests. This time, the seller was Amazon LLC.

Anyway, I heard, but I don't know if it's true, that all Ray-Ban frames are made in China. The frames have "Made in Italy" on them. So if this is true, then the glasses are actually only *assembled* in Italy. And maybe Italian law lets them get away with saying "Made in Italy". I don't know. Hopefully, someone can shed some more light on the matter.

Great fit, classic look and polarized

Reviewed in the United States on December 12, 2011

With the classic look and comfortable weight, these are nearly ideal. They lay at an angle on the face, with the bottom part of the lens closer to the face than the top part, near the eyelashes. This makes for an ideal fit and not ever hit the eyelashes, even if they are close to the eyes. They're lightweight and since they're polarized they're good in alternate conditions (snow, water, etc. I thought about buying the folding version of these( Ray-Ban Polarized Black Folding Wayfarer RB 4105 601/58 Sunglasses w/G-15 Lens Size 54 mm RB4105 ), but opted not to since I didn't see enough purpose to fold. These also fit perfectly in this case by the way: Nite Ize NGC-03-01 Rugged Glasses Case, Black

Genuine RayBan Wayfarer

Reviewed in India on December 30, 2016

Product link: Rayban Wayfarer sunglasses polarzied RB2140 901/58
I ordered this product half-heartedly, by reading reviews online and most of them were concerned about legitimate RayBan. Still, I saw this product on the deal and tried to give it a shot. Delivery was quick, got it delivered on very next day (Prime account). Had issues with packaging, but product was undamaged. This is the first time I have bought RayBan so I wasn't sure if the product is genuine or not. I searched over the Internet and saw some parameters which can verify if these are original Wayfarer. This product satisfies all the parameters and hence I'm happy that I've got a genuine RayBan Wayfarer. I've listed out some of the parameters below which I found to cross verify if the product is genuine (Specifically for this product: RB2140).

1. Fitting: Should fit in proportion. Fake ones usually fit bit tilted.
2. Feel factor: Should feel comfortable wearing and pleasant to eyes.
3. Weight: These wayfarers are bit heavy, as they have metal rods inside running around the frame. Check the for the metal rods by holding Wayfarer's arms against bright light.
4. Hinges: Should have 7 layered hinges.
5. The angle between arm and frame: This should be less than 90 degrees.
7. Arms: Should be curved towards each other. (Fake ones are usually straight)
8. RB engraving: Should be on the left glass. Genuine one has laser engraving and shouldn't feel by rubbing a finger on it.
9. Polarized test: Hold sunglasses in front of any screen which has pixels, turn sunglasses vertically, you should observe the dark view through it.

Perfectas y no pasan de moda

Reviewed in Spain on October 11, 2016

Unas gafas muy recomendables. Ya habia usado estas gafas y son muy comodas, pero el precio de unas Ray Ban puede ser desorbitado. Esta fue la principal razon por la que compré estas gafas en Amazon, el precio bastante mas bajo. Ademas, despues me di cuenta de que eran polarizadas, es decir, aun mejor, ya que filtran muy bien los reflejos y protegen mejor de los deslumbramientos de dia, algo muy recomendable para conducir.

En definitiva, un producto 100% recomendable para los que les gustan este tipo de gafas.
