We are the sunglasses fanatics, are you one of us? It is undeniable that there are really a lot of people who love sunglasses. We cannot deny that such fashion accessory is considered to be the Fashion tool of all times. It is undeniable that sunglasses are one of the few accessories that fit people from all walks of life. Let me name one of the best sun glass producers in the world.Ray Ban, this is one of the brands that is really dominating the industry for more than five decades now. Actually, the Ray Ban Wayfarer sunglasses is the model that paves the way for the popularity of this brand. To give you a clearer view of this model, let me provide you with more interesting facts.

Before anything else, let us first talk about the person behind the Ray Ban wayfarer sunglasses. The genius behind the said model is also the one holding the patent for the famous Bausch and Lomb. Raymond Stegeman is an optical designer who wanted to give a new touch in the world of sunglasses. Due to his willingness to make a name in the industry, he came up with a very new and interesting idea. He created the Wayfarer, the first sun glass that was manufactured using the plastic technology. This is a breath of fresh air from the usual metal frame that sunglasses used to have during that time. Stegeman started working for this project in 1952, and finally introduced the final result to the public in 1956.

The Ray Ban 2132 wayfarer sunglasses is theoretically the classic model that gained high popularity amidst movie stars Tom Cruise, Bob Dylan and Audrey Hepburn. Comparing with the original design, the new product has been integrated with several alterations, to keep pace with the latest trendy vogue. In design, the new model appears to be slightly more rounded with a sleeker Rx-able plastic frame figure. Consequently the sunglasses do not dominate the face hence less obtrusive. It resembles the 1950's design yet with modernized elements.

Like any other sunglasses, Ray Ban wayfarer has the Ray Ban logo displayed on the frame temples as well as the right lens. Being available in two fundamental sizes of horizontal lenses diameters, the 55 and 52 mm, wayfarer features adjustable temples and a saddle nose bridge that assures wearers of maximized comfort. Most women would prefer the 52 mm sizes as they are more comfortable while men would fit better with the 55mm. The 52 mm is also suitable for children wear.

Because it has been an accustom for Ray Ban to come in various color options, the Ray Ban 2132 wayfarer sunglasses are not exceptional. The color varies from classic tortoise, yellow tortoise, shiny sand or crystal, navy or black, sand or black and many more. Due to the availability of vast of choices, there sure is something and some colors to suit your taste. It has been noticed that Tom Cruise flanked the new wayfarer in the movie Risky Business wearing the one of 901 color code, the one having black frame matched with grayish green lens.

This sun glass gained popularity in 1960's. This may be due to the fact that the usage of plastic technology is a new innovation in the industry. But when 1970's come, the popularity of the said model had gone little by little. Well, this trend is just normal since almost all businesses are experiencing this situation.

In the early 80's Ray Ban had come up with an idea that will bring back the limelight to wayfarer. They make use of the media to give maximum exposure to the said model. They have contracted some actors and actresses to make use of wayfarer in their movies and TV shows. And this business strategy had succeeded. Since then, wayfarer gained the top position in the sunglasses industry.

With some of the facts that I have read about this model, there are two things that are given emphasis. The first one is that, fashion gurus are saying that this model of Ray Ban can be considered as the icon model for all times since it has sustained its position even there are a lot of competitors rising off in the market. And another compliment attached to Wayfarer is that it is named as the foundation of modern designs for eyeglasses. Even though there are already a lot of designs that are now available in the public, still Ray Ban Wayfarer manages to stay on top.
