Ray Ban

Ray-Ban was founded in 1937 by Bausch & Lomb, on commission of the United States Air Force to create sunglasses that would not only provide superb protection to the pilots, but also look elegant. Ray-Ban was responsible for creating two of the most imitated sunglass models in the world: the Aviator and the Wayfarer.

The popularity of these vintage sunglasses sky-rocketed as many celebrities took to wearing them, but hit a peak largely in the 1980s, following pop culture references and use by celebrities in films such as, Top Gun and Men in Black. A-list fans include, Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, Madonna, Freddie Mercury, Steven Tyler, Axl Rose, Kanye West and John Lennon.
