History
Ray-Ban Aviator sunglasses have a rich history dating back to 1936 when they were developed by Bausch & Lomb. They were first used by pilots in order to protect their eyes from the sun while flying, hence the name Aviator or “pilot” glasses. Due to their lightweight, thin and elegant design, they also replaced flight goggles used in the military. Ray-Ban Aviator sunglasses have become one of the most popular styles of sunglasses ever developed.
The Ray-Ban Aviator became a commercial product and was made popular after General Douglas MacArthur was pictured wearing them on a beach in the Philippines. These photos have become the lasting images of World War II and the Ray-Ban Aviator became a part of history.
The Ray-Ban Aviator has managed to maintain an image of high quality, superior performance and comfort. So what are you waiting for? Wear a part of history and be proud of your original Ray-Ban sunglasses!
