It's hard to overlook Ray-Ban when it comes to sunglasses. The brand was founded in 1937 in the United States with a clear mission: to equip American army pilots. This led to the creation of the Aviator, with its teardrop shape and metal frame. A few years later came the Wayfarer and then the Clubmaster, and this trio has become a lasting fixture in the world of sunglasses.

Iconic Ray-Ban Models

The Ray-Ban range is built around a few signature shapes that have stood the test of time.

Ray-Ban Aviator

With its teardrop shape and metal frame, the Aviator remains the go-to for those who love timeless lines. Originally designed for pilots, it still carries that technical and instantly recognisable character.

Ray-Ban Wayfarer

Bolder with its acetate frame, the Wayfarer stands out for its character. Its distinctive trapezoidal shape makes it one of the brand's most iconic models, and probably one of the most imitated too. It's often seen on the faces of famous actors in various films.

Ray-Ban Clubmaster

With its half-rim design, the Clubmaster brings a very recognisable retro touch. A silhouette that appeals equally to men and women.

Other Ray-Ban Shapes

Alongside these classics, Ray-Ban also offers more contemporary shapes: Hexagonal, Round, Justin and Erika add to the range with lines that suit current trends.

Ray-Ban Optical Quality

Beyond design, Ray-Ban stands out for the quality of its lenses. Depending on the model, you'll find mineral, polarised or gradient lenses, all treated to provide genuine sun protection. The frames, made from acetate or metal, are built to last and retain their shape over time.

How to Choose Your Ray-Ban Pair?

Choosing a pair of Ray-Bans mainly depends on your face shape and how you plan to use them. Aviators suit oval and square faces particularly well, while Wayfarers flatter round faces by adding character. For use in bright sunlight or strong glare (water, snow, road), opt for models with polarised lenses to reduce glare.
