My Ray-Ban 3025 Aviator sunglasses arrived today, and I'm completely satisfied. What I received was undoubtably the REAL Ray-Ban product: packaged in a Ray-Ban box with sticker on the end including the 'Made in Italy' statement and including the Ray-Ban sunglasses case, a small 'manufacturer's information note' paper that is written in no less than 24 languages (!!!) - and I'm not joking (I counted). Plus a small marketing brochure 'The Icons' telling the story of Ray-Ban, and finally a lens cleaning cloth with the Ray-Ban logo. The sunglasses themselves have the Ray-Ban logo etched on the right lens prominently, and very subtly etched on the left lens.So, that's the package. It's as pictured here,and I start with that description because there is always going to be some trepidation at buying something like this online. Will you get The Real Deal, or a cheap knock-off? Well, I purchased mine from Amazon, not from a third-party seller, to reduce that risk, and I am not disappointed.Now to the sunglasses themselves. I think that there are a few things to know, for someone considering Ray-Ban sunglasses:- they come in a very wide variety of frame sizes, lens tints and colors, polarized and non-polarized, and with different frame colors and finishes. If you are not already familiar with these sunglasses and know what you want, then my recommendation is that you first go to the Ray-Ban website and familiarize yourself with those variations, especially if you think that you will want something other than the Traditional Gold Frame, Green Lens sunglass. Once at the Ray-Ban website, select 'customize' at the top, and you'll find yourself on a page where you have the full ability to vary the choices I've summarized below. These variations can all be found on Amazon although navigating through all of the sellers and product pages on Amazon that list the different variations of these sunglasses can be very time consuming and confusing.- For the 3025 Aviator style, the following variations are available:--- There are no less than 35 choices of lenses - 'classic', 'legends', 'gradient', 'mirrored and flash', and 'polarized'--- There are 8 variations in frame color - basic colors of gold and matte gold, and 'trendy' colors of black and 5 others--- There are 5 choices of temple tips (the end of the earpiece) - black or white as basic choices, and brown, beige or transparent also available--- There are a three different sizes available for the Ray-Ban Large Aviator RB3025. THIS IS IMPORTANT:----------- 58 14 135: the basic standard size is 58 mm lens diameter, 14 mm bridge width, with temple length 135 mm----------- 55 14 135: slightly smaller lens size, with same bridge width and temple length----------- 62 14 140: larger lens size and temple length--- There are also further variations to the Aviator sunglass:----------- Large Aviator II RB3026: only available as 62 14 140----------- Small Aviator RB3044: only available as 52 14 135----------- Folding Aviator RB3479: available in 55 14 140 and 58 14 145----------- Outdoorsman II RB3029 (includes 'brow bar' or 'sweat bar'): available in 62 14 140----------- Outdoorsman RB3030 (includes ''brow bar' or 'sweat bar' plus cable temples): available in 58 14 160----------- Outdoorsman II Rainbow RB3407 (with 'brow bar' in pink and possibly other color variations): available in 55 14 135 and 58 14 135----------- Outdoorsman II Craft RB3422Q (with 'brow bar' and temple pads in genuine hand stitched deer leather): available in 58 14 135----------- Shooter RB3138 (with 'brow bar' or 'sweat bar' and a small circle just below the brow bar. Also the lenses are placed closer together than other Aviator models): available in 58 09 135- once you have figured out what you want, then the complexity is reduced and it's simply a matter of determining which seller is offering the best price. My own choice was to purchase from Amazon, not from a third-party seller, and I actually ordered two different pairs of sunglasses because I wanted to try both the polarized and non-polarized lenses, and the choices I found also had some variation in frame color that I thought would be worth checking out. I therefore purchased for myself, from Amazon, the following two pairs:-

I love these they are the standard 3025 aviators that ray ban has been making for many decades. They are the lightest glasses I have ever felt but the wire still has a lot of strength to them and I love how flat they fold up. The matt gold finish is really nice without being too gaudy and the blue Flash lenses will definitely attract attention. I bought these so I can wear them to Electric Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas June 2014!!!! No one else better copy me =p5/10 - So the original pair I received had a very slight scratch on one of the lenses so I returned them and purchased another pair. I received the new pair and there are differences... First the glasses case is brown instead of black like the first time,

I see some reviews that state that the product they received was a fake and some of the pictures really do support that claim. However, the ones that I received to be an authentic pair based on a thorough inspection without anything that seemed out of place or of shoddy quality. Ultimately, I do believe it depends on the seller despite being "fulfilled by Amazon." I believe they can only be guaranteed authentic if the product is "shipped and sold by Amazon.com" not if it simply says "fulfilled by Amazon." I purchased my pair from Angel Seller and mine seemed to be a real and authentic pair.Furthermore, the product is great, but it is described as "large" regardless of if it is 58mm or 62mm,

After reading all the reviews, I honestly wrestled with to buy or not to buy the crystal blue lens Ray Ban aviator sunglasses online.I even did online price checks as well as visiting local stores to compare prices for the same exact sunglasses before I made my final decision. I don't make sunglasses,but I am so HAPPY I made the purchase. I received the sunglasses in perfect condition(no damage to the box,no damage to the sunglasses and all the extras you receive with a Ray Ban purchase{cleaning wipe-manual-case}.I ROCKED my sunglasses this morning and received lots of compliments.This is my 1st pair of Ray Ban sunglasses and I was really inspired to purchase them after seeing the best QB in the NFL(Russell Wilson-Seattle Seahawks)

i've been looking for good authentic sunglasses for quite a while. You cannot beat that price!!! As i can see may people has received sunglasses made in china or they are not sure if they are authentic. If you had aviators before you can never miss a fakes or a defective ones. Although mine are made in italy and i got ORB3025 112/4L58 blue mirror polarized for my girlfriend which are also made in italy. Both pairs are 100% authentic. If you want to pay 200$ just to be sure that they are authentic go for it and purchase the sunglasses from Rayban.com but once you find out that these are as much authentic as the ones from rayban you will want to save those 80$ because these 2 pairs cost 400$ on rayban.com and just 244$ here.

Ordered them at 945 pm last night and got them at 9am this morning while choosing saturday delivery so that was awesome. Also, the sunglasses are great, they're authentic as i ran all the tests and they're definitely high quality. Only thing is that opening and closing them are a little stiff so they'll click a little bit but I'm sure thats just because they're new and they'll get worn in. I got the polarized ones and went driving with them and they were great. I love them. However, they do fall off my face a little bit so I'm going to go to lens crafters to get them adjusted. I made sure to buy directly from amazon as i didn't want to deal with getting a fake pair so i recommend you do the same.

While ordering these glasses I was not confident that they were original or even of the right color as the description was slightly misleading, Green instead of Blue. On Ray Ban's website they are listed as Blue. I am normally very picky and cautious about Originality but at that price I took the plunge and I am not sorry. The product is definitely Original as I had taken it into Sunglass hut to compare.Regarding the Glasses itself they are absolutely fantastic. The Matt gold finish of the frame is something refreshing and looks beautiful. The Blue lenses on top of the Matt Gold frame make is a perfect combination.I have been thinking of getting an Aviator for sometime now and I think the color was the last push.

I have always bought $20 aviators which would eventually break and scratch because I was afraid to spend the money on a good pair and lose them. My wife finally convinced me to get a pair of Ray-Bans and I will never go back to the gas station sunglasses. The polarized lens make an incredible difference when compared to non-polarized lenses. And because they cost more than my old glasses I actually take care of them. They make a statement. If you are interested I suggest that you go to a retail store that sells Ray-Bans and try on the different sizes before buying on Amazon. I saved 40% over retail by using this trick.Pros:PolarizedClassic styleSolid constructionCons:I am scared to lose such expensive sunglassesBottom line: Once you go polarized you will never go back.

These are authentic Ray Bans for any skeptics! I am an optician and I deal with these glasses all the time and I can guarantee that these are REAL! Ray Ban sunglass cases come in 3 colors: black, brown, and also red, so don't judge its authenticity based on the color of the case!! I do just want to mention that the seller I bought from was Sunglass Express, in case the seller is different for any other buyers b/c that might make a difference. I bought the RB 3025, black frame and G15 polarized lens. There was the distinct Ray Ban etching on the left lens. The fit for the frame was great, I just have to get the nose pads adjusted in a little bit b/c they are spaced a little wide and I have a very narrow nose.

I am a retired cop and have been wearing aviators since I could afford to buy my own glasses. My 19 year old son is now wearing one of my first pairs (Outdoorsman). I have gone through various brands but always come back to the Ray Bans. These are the real deal. As I have grown over the years I had to make the move to the 62mm. These are large glasses but suit my face well. I strongly suggest finding a place to try them on before buying a pair. I've had several pairs with polycarbonate lenses and forgot how heavy genuine Ray Bans are. They have a very solid feel. This is my first pair of polarized Ray Bans and I could not be happier. They provide spectacular glare reduction and crispness.

I own and use a multitude of sunglasses..but when I need something that is both stylish and functional I always reach for my raybans.these glasses are hard to beat from a style standpoint. .and as far as function...everything is crystal clear.in my opinion it's hard to beat the optics offered by glass lenses...and yes these rayban use glass lenses.they are perfect for going out to a function, sporting event or just laying around at the beach or driving.would recomended these glasses to anyone..well worth the cost..and speaking of cost you can't beat amazon..they are nearly $80.00 lower than the leading sunglass chain..whom happen to be owned by the parent company of rayban...you know the

I have worn aviators for several years now. I lost my current pair just before returning to work (overseas) and was just plain mad! I was flying out on a Sunday and couldn't find a pair in my small town before my flight. Was at the Atlanta airport as well as Dubai and they were like 200 bucks at duty free. So I ordered those and amazon got them to the APO in less than week unreal fast for 100 bucks! I decided to get the orange lens because I thought they looked cool. But the lens is great .it keeps the sun away during the day but you can use these right until the sun disappears its like they gather the light. Nice glasses typical aviator fit and quality.

I've had these for over 3 years now and I can safely say that these sunglasses are very good on multiple fronts. First, they provide great optics. Not only are they polarized, the lenses are made of glass which are superior to plastic lenses in most cases. The green tint is subtle and warm, these aren't super dark lenses but manage to provide a great middle-ground for bright and low light situations. These are very durable. I've dropped them countless times and the lenses only have a few scratches. The scratches also do not affect performance, which I'm happy to report. I highly recommend these as a long term buy that should exceed most peoples expectations for performance and durability.

I have been very careless with my eyes throughout my 67 years of life and regarded those using sunglasses as wimps. No having gone through cataract operation on both my eyes due to burn out of sun I did buy these as a protection. The comfort and protection I now have I regret that I did not get a pair a lot earlier in my life. So my advice to you boys and girls buy a pair of proper sunglasses as these are and avoid cheap copies! Had I done it in the past my eyes would have been saved. Now driving in the sun I see all around me and as a fact if you think you do as well but put a proper pair of sunglasses on and you will see the difference.

Despite what tons of reviewers have mentioned these to be fake, i guess it depends on your luck and the seller you choose. There is absolutely no way to separate fake and genuine ones, but then its the same everywhere.This is probably the first aviator purchased by most of people and worth it. Decided on 58mm one, as 62mm one seemed too big for anyone, unless he has a really bulky build and face. This is my 3rd rayban purchase and came in brown case, whereas the first two came in black leather case.Glasses passed the polarized screen test and the greenish lens are really comfortable when you wear in direct sunlights. Happy!
