RB3025 Aviator Large Metal
The shape that started it all. The Aviator is the brand staple originally designed for the U.S. military fighter pilots in 1937. Its timeless look with the unmistakable tear drop shaped lenses. This style allowed these sunglasses to quickly spread beyond their utility, becoming popular among celebrities, rock stars and citizens of the world alike. This is a iconic look that has endured for nearly a century. Also available with polar lenses.
Introduced in 1937, the aviator gets its name from the aid it provided US Air Force Pilots with decreasing glare in flight. It has an iconic design that will last and last for years to come, plus a durable and lightweight metal frame, 100% UV protected lenses, and comfortable rubber nose pads.

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.

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... Read more 28 of 31 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?) Love 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. |
