    Brown Thomas have a range of Ray Bans, but most sunglasses shops? Like Sunglasses Hut?

    Or you could look online - if you know the model number.

    I think they're a model called Justin. Try sunglass hut, they tend to have the biggest collection. http://www.ray-ban.com/ireland/products/sun/RB4165?var=854/7Z

    Vision Express also sell them!

    I've had a look in BT's and The Sunglasses Hut but I've had no luck. Both had just the classic Wayfayers which I find too small a frame.

    I'll try Vision Express once I get the chance, thanks! Fingers crossed we'll get a little bit of sun to actually wear them.

    The Wayfarer does come in two sizes, did you try both? There's 50 which is the standard and 54 which is bigger. As they're a slanted lens style the slant is more obvious in the bigger style.

    This site has a good few Wayfarer style options. They have a shop on Dawson St if you wanted to try on http://www.sunglasses.ie/ray-ban-ireland-sunglasses/

    Yes. You can get them on top of that epic nose.

    The bigger size is only bigger by 4 mm? Which I can't see making a huge difference. I have the 50mm and find the slant quite obvious in that style.

    Thanks for all the help though. I guess I'll just wait until I go through duty free sometime since I can't find the exact style.

    Try ASOS, they sell Raybans although their selection may be small

    I used to work in a sunglasses shop :D i found a big difference in the sizes but the slant would put me off a bit, it's a really big gap.

    Hope you get what you're looking for!

    you might get them in House of Fraser in Dundrum, they have a large enough range of Ray Bans


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,782 ✭✭✭SmallTeapot


    Could anybody help identify what model these Ray Bans are? Asos rarely include the RB product code and they're next to impossible to contact re product details ("product is as described on page", etc.) :(

    Asos Link

    Thanks :)

    (I don't think they're Jackie O's as they seem quite angular and don't take up the face as much)

    At first I didn't think they were Jackie Ohhs - I have my pair in front of me right now. The pair you show are more rounded on the outside corners, where as my Jackie Ohhs are more angular there.

    But then, I looked at the RayBan website and lo...I think they are a different style of Jackie Ohh

    That's them! Thanks Dudara :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,863 ✭✭✭seachto7


    I would say try them on and ask someone in the shop for their honest opinion. What I thought might suit me didn't when I tried them on...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,036 ✭✭✭BArra


    to the OP, yes the ones you want are the Justin RBs, i actually bought them a few weeks ago, got them with prescription lens

    great service from Shade-Station where i bought them, dispatched the day after i ordered them

    edit: the 54mm ones seem out of stock at the moment, it says they are due in on 5th july.

    i priced the RBs in debenhams first and they were quite a bit...dearer

    On the sunglasses theme, does anyone know if an opticians will adjust sunglasses if you bought them somewhere else? I recently bought a pair of the RB new wayfarers in House of Fraser and would like to have the legs bent a bit more so they don't slide forward.

    I recently got some normal glasses and prescription sunnies in my local Specsavers- would it be really cheeky to pop back in with my sunglasses and ask if someone could adjust them? I'd be more than happy to pay.

    I have a similar style from Bvlgari, they might be easier to find:

    Try secretsales.com, they have Ray Ban sales regularly and might have some in the outlet section. I've bought from them before, 100% legit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,267 ✭✭✭Elessar


    The sunglasses hut in the airport do tax free ray-bans aswell.

    I saw a pair I love (RB3183) but they are gigantic on me :( (Or maybe sunglasses are supposed to be big...)

    Anyone know if Ray-Ban do smaller sizes?
