Audrey Sunglasses is a Oliver Goldsmith Manhattan, Not a Ray ban.

[@guruvignesh2613]

Thanks for the info could you please upload the same for maui jim

[@glennweaver3014]

I like the small aviator style and the early Balorama style worn by Clint Eastwood in Dirty Harry. 1980s Wayfarer is another good one.

[@ConcordeOne77]

I have a pair of Ray-ban Sheild Wings II. I thought I would not like them as much but after wearing them for a few days, I must say, if I were to pick a pair of ray-bans, the Wings II are my winners. it was worth it

[@BoBty7]

I just bought Ray-Ban prescription eyeglasses

[@joellegoh718]

From Wiki -Another iconic item throughout the movie is Holly's sunglasses. Often misidentified as Ray-Ban, they are Manhattan sunglasses designed and manufactured in London by Oliver Goldsmith. In 2011 the model was re-released to mark the 50th anniversary of Breakfast at Tiffany's

[@David_DY]

American civil war? That was way before Ray-bans 😂👊

[@Drkbardockssj]

Nah man they say they go back to Washington crossing the Delaware. Lol

[@DiegoLopez-pk1lp]

It's the best style

[@pistachiosandpopcorn7146]

Absolutely. The rest are ugly. There is just something about that style of sunglasses that is the coolest no matter what brand. Back in the day I liked those huge sunglasses celebrities were wearing..circa 2004 or 05. Now all I want is Aviators!

[@anjaglas5784]

My Ray Ban Nina with the transparent violet frame is my absolutely fave 💓 of all sunglasses in my entire collection.....which contains lots of other brands too.

[@DiasPP1KKHamRadio]

Ray-Ban é uma marca de óculos de sol e de grau, fundada em 1937 pela companhia Norte Americana Bausch & Lomb. A marca tornou-se famosa por seus modelos de óculos de sol Wayfarer e Aviator. Em 1929, o Coronel do Corpo Aéreo do Exército dos Estados Unidos, John A. Macready, trabalhou com a Bausch & Lomb, uma fabricante de equipamentos médicos com sede em New York, para criar óculos de sol da aviação que reduzissem a distração causada nos pilotos pelos intensos tons de azul e branco do céu. Especificamente, MacCready estava preocupado com a forma como os óculos dos pilotos embaçavam, reduzindo drasticamente sua visibilidade em grandes altitudes. O protótipo, criado em 1936 e conhecido como Anti-Glare (Anti-Brilho), tinha armação de plástico e lentes verdes que conseguiam cortar o brilho sem obscurecer a visão. Em 1938 também foram adicionadas lentes anti impactos. No ano seguinte, os óculos de sol foram redesenhados com uma armação de metal e patenteados como Ray-Ban Aviator. Segundo a BBC, os óculos usavam as Lentes Kalichrome projetadas para aprimorar os detalhes e minimizar a neblina, filtrando a luz azul, tornando-os ideais para condições enevoadas. Os óculos de sol mais populares da Ray-Ban são os modelos Wayfarer, Aviator e Clubmaster. Durante a década de 1950, Bausch & Lomb lançou o modelo Caravan, que tinha um armação mais quadrada. Em 1965, os modelos Olympian I e II foram introduzidos; eles tornaram-se popular quando Peter Fonda os usou no filme de 1969 Easy Rider. A empresa também produziu modelos de edição especial, como o The General em 1987, que se assemelha aos Aviator originais usados pelo General Douglas MacArthur durante a II Guerra Mundial. Em 1999, A Global Eyewear Division Of Bausch & Lomb, vendeu a marca Ray-Ban, para grupo Italiano Luxottica, por US$ 640.000.000. Representante: SunGlass Hut Brasil Comércio Óculos Ltda Vila Olímpia/SP. Site oficial na Italia: www.luxottica.com/ Fonte da pesquisa: pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray-Ban

[@user-us6ce7me8k]

Love Ray Ban 💙💜

[@Love09081979]

Bought a newer Ray-Ban, made in China. Screws got loose in about a week, paint scratches fast too. I'm not doing nothing special, just wearing the glasses to the office. And yes, my pair is genuine, same complains are all over the web.... That's how giants fall...

[@duncandistortion]

Why do they use very small & cheap screws to hold them together resulting in them creaking when you put them on & falling apart?.

[@davidviens1293]
