Ray-Ban

As the most famous sunglasses in the world, Ray-Ban needs little in the way of introduction. With a colourful history and an impeccable pedigree, these shades have been worn by soldiers, film stars and pilots for generations. Find classic Wayfarer and Aviator styles in our sales.

With the subtle scratched signature on the lens of a pair of shades, Ray-Ban place their mark. It is a mark of extraordinary pedigree, which stretches back to the first pair of Aviator shades in 1937. Designed for pilots who needed a pair of glasses that would reduce glare, this eighty year-old brand was initially introduced into the American military, but then quickly established itself in becoming a fashion icon.

As time passed, film stars and celebrities such as James Dean, Marilyn Monroe and JFK began to wear the brand. Audrey Hepburn wore the Wayfarer style in Breakfast at Tiffany’s and James Dean in Rebel Without a Cause. Celebrity following has remained incredibly high, with what seems like every celebrity on earth owning at least one pair. Emma Stone, Johnny Marr, Clint Eastwood and more all favour the brand, while the Aviator style found fame on the face of Tom Cruise in the 1986 blockbuster Top Gun.
