Polarized glasses are the BEST....IMO they are definitely worth the extra $$.

Thanks Missbanff, I will probably go for the Polarized. I went & checked a couple of styles, RB 2140 size 52mm Medium, the shape looks great but the only thing that's weird about this style is the frame seats kind of diagonal. I mean the top part is more forward, due to the arm is not perpendicular to the frame. If you can picture what I'm trying to say. I asked the SA this & she said a lot of people feel that way too.

I also tried the RB2132 & this one fits just right on my face, seats great & normal. They go in different sizes, very confusing though because it doesn't say clearly what size it is. They go 50mm, 52mm, 55mm & the SA have no idea either on the size. I tried them on & just noticed the slight difference in sizes & I was guessing that the size 55mm fits better for me. The last numbers inside says 55088, so I think it is 55mm.

Does anybody know how else to identify the sizes on these Wayfarers?

^^^^

The sizes are printed on the inside temple. Most women tend to wear that style typically in the 55, if you have a smaller face you may opt for the 52.

Hope that helps! =)

OP did you buy them at a sunglass hut?

** if you purchase Ray Bans at the Sunglass Hut and break them or damage them within one year of purchase you can bring back the damaged pair and get the same price for half off. You will need your receipt or you will have to go back to the exact location they were purchased.

Anyone know what size the 2140 raybans are that Taylor on the Rachel Zoe project wears?

mvk · Oct 14th, 2009, 01:10 PM

The must be new, because I've had my wayfarers for over a year now and they look different. I mean, hers look smaller???

I'm quite sure they are RB2132 size 55mm. That's the style & size that fits my face better than the RB2140 w/c has the wierd angle look when you wear it. You should go to the store & try all the Wayfarer styles & see what looks best for you.

wis3ly · Oct 14th, 2009, 11:05 PM

any deals on Aviators? Wayfarer looks ridiculous on me.

wrms · Oct 14th, 2009, 11:30 PM

I just got some aviators ($90!)from the Saks friends and family promotion online. The discount didn't work at checkout, but when I chatted with customer service online, the woman managed to extend the discount to my purchase.

wis3ly · Oct 15th, 2009, 01:18 AM

^^ is this still available?
