    I think the polarized lenses are terrible. Can't see a phone screen properly that has a screen protector on it and I can constantly see the reflection of my own eyeball in the lenses.

    Do the glasses come with a case ? Or do you have to pay extra ?

    There's a lot of RayBan sunglasses on Amazon for a good bit cheaper than the official site (even with the 30% discount). They're sold by Amazon so presumably they're not fake. Just wondering if there's any difference?

    Ah yea, their market is riddled, not them. They would be destroyed if they started aswell.

    How much is 30% off?

    I couldn't justify stupid money on glasses myself when so many viable alternatives out there.

    Sold by amazon themselves or fulfilled by Amazon?

    They come in a case you dont pay anything extra for it.

    Your lenses lack anti-reflective coating, hence the reflections.

    Anyone else having problems with the website? I was trying last night to select the classic avaiator in normal size and wouldn't allow me to select a frame, guess it's sold out. Went on this morning and site not loading pages, even tried Internet Explorer and that was worse (unsuprisingly).

    Working for me in Chrome at the moment, I've found it to be slow in Firefox previously (although it's not the only site I've had issues with in FF, to be fair). I'm getting an error when selecting Customise on Aviators, though I could pick a standard pair and put them in the basket.

    Thanks, look on Brown Thomas site as they are on sale there too, obviously can't customise but worth a look.

    UK Ray-Ban site works out cheaper than Irish one.

    Cheapest of all is https://www.sunglasses-shop.co.uk/ which has a 25%-off code.

    Nice, I went for the same in new Wayfarers for about €15 more just there now, first time paying more than a tenner for a pair of shades! :D

    Can 100% vouch for Ray Bans being worth the money. I've owned wayfarers and clubmasters and would never wear cheap sunglasses again. There's just a lovely weight to them and the build quality is amazing.

    How do you find the clubmasters compared to the wayfarers? I've had my wayfarers for years but scratched the lenses pretty badly right on my eye line, was looking at clubmasters as a replacement but not sure if I'd find the smaller lenses annoying?

    I got customised Justin's with polarised lenses. Ordered 15th, got an email yesterday morning to say they'd shipped and they arrived yesterday afternoon.

    Very happy with them and much better for driving than my Hawkers.

    Also has anyone put prescription lenses in their Raybans? I wouldn't mind a pair of prescription sunglasses, but concerned that the lenses the online places use will look a bit wrong and end up ruining the look of the glasses themselves.

    Not sure this is entirely true, I have ordered custom aviators and the customisable options on the Irish site seemed better and the same glasses on the UK site that I ordered were more expensive when exchange was checked on Revolut. I haven't checked based on just stock options which may be where the UK site might work out cheaper but for my particular custom choices the Irish site was cheaper.

    You sure on the Ray-Ban UK site being cheaper?

    I am looking at:

    NEW WAYFARER CLASSIC
    RB2132 601S78 55-18
    Frame: Matte Black
    Lenses: Polarized, Blue/Grey Gradient

    Irish site: €136.50
    UK site: £123.20 (€141-ish)

    But on www.sunglasses-shop.co.uk they are coming in at £106.50 (€122-ish)

    I wouldn't recommend the UK site guys. Virtually impossible for me to return mine. I can only return them by UPS collecting them and they don't offer non UK collections. And I doubt parcel motel would Accomodate my needs...

    Anyway. I have them on adverts now if anyone is interested in a discount to the 30%. They're clubmaster classics.

    I got the rubber black on my Justin and it's very nice. I'll add a picture shortly.

    Size wise, I'm between the 52's and the 55's in the New Wayfarer, tried on a pair off 55's there now (housemate has a pair) and a bit loose on my face to be honest. I used the credit card trick for measuring and it would suggest to lean towards the 52's.

    Any advice?

    Any go for 52's and end up too tight?

    If normal sun glasses look too big on your face then go 52

    When I was getting my day to day glasses 2 years ago, I asked specsavers for my prescription and filled it in on the selectspecs.com website when I was ordering my raybans.. Delivered via Parcel Motel a week or two later. Still going strong!

    i contacted ray ban a week or so ago as i couldnt find an option to give my prescription on the website, this is what they replied to me:

    Thanks for contacting us.
