Producing perhaps the most famous sunglasses in the world, American brand Ray Ban was founded in 1937. The original sunglasses and glasses were created for the US Air Corps and it was this arrangement that produced the classic ‘aviator’ style that we now know so well. In the 1950s the brand’s Wayfarer model became a cult classic among the emerging youth cultures, repeating the performance in the 1980s and again this decade. It seems Ray Ban will always be aligned with a youthful American cool, an association that keeps them ever popular.
