Wasn't it Lauren Bacall who first wore them in film? Maybe not but everyone remembers at least one old B&W film star who looked great in the quintessential Ray-Ban. Stars are still seen wearing these major brand name sunglasses anywhere that people pretend to avoid the press. Ray-Bans have been making the scene so long that they now produce a retro Original Wayfarer style.



Signed and available in several fashion frame colors, genuine Ray-Bans say summertime in a universal language. Pink, tortoise shell, turquoise, two-toned and a whole range of colors there is just something casual yet designer about these shades. The Luxottica Group sells Ray-Ban Sunglasses to discerning fashion aficionados of all ages. Ray-Ban juniors are sold for those just starting to notice fashion.

Most Ray-Bans are sold by model number while others have both a style name and number. These can be found online at auction sites with fairly high price tags. For instance the RB 3267 and RB 3293 aviators run nearly $100. The RB2940 Wayfarer is a little more expensive. The best idea is to buy that favorite Ray-Ban style when ever and where ever it can be found at a better price point.

Once the Ray-Bans are acquired at whatever price they should be ruthlessly protected since these have the potential to become collectable one day. Carefully stored vintage Wayfarers fetch a handsome price. They no doubt compliment the Hawaiian Shirts with coconut buttons and wooden surf boards. Collectible or investment dressing they are always a favorite possession.

Fortunately there are lots of Ray-Ban styles that are far less expensive. The style and name brand that consumers have loved for generations are available to all budgets. For those who do want to spend more however the Ray-Ban limited edition signed and numbered ultras were invented. Limited edition means that the RB8028K and the RB8029K will be instant collectibles.
