Ray-BanMen's RB4089 Balorama Rectangular Sunglasses

So here’s the honest truth, they are a little different from the original Balorama RB I had purchased early 90s, the lenses were glass.These have a lighter plastic feel too them,but overall these are pretty cool and sturdy I really like these (Polarized Balorama RB-4089 they’re light and they kept the olive green color tint lenses.I recommend these if nobody minds the lighter feel to them. and little pricey..

Just what I expected

With the heavier design I find it hard to pop them up onto the top of my head when entering indoors. The non polarized lenses are very easy on the eyes, colors seem natural and true.I would and will buy them again. I am sure they will last the 25 plus years my first pair of Balaramas lasted

Excellent fitting and quality. Love my new Ray-Bans.

The glasses are of quite acceptable quality we've all come to expect of Ray-Ban.Lens are not crystal glass; and maybe it's just me, but I think the difference is subtle but existent.The frame is shiny and firm, with longer than usual handles, a bit heavier than matte frames on other models.They probably look best on normal-to-full face.

Exactly what I was looking for. These shades are light years better than the fake Oakley's I bought a couple of years ago on Amazon. They are well made, fit perfectly, and look great.

I have always been an Oakley guy, but then I saw the movie Ford vs. Ferrari and I got hooked on Christian Bale's shades. When I heard that Dirty Harry also wore these in that 1971 classic, I had to have them.I could tell immediately upon taking these out of their case that they are much higher quality of materials and construction than my trusty Oakley's. I also was able to get these at a 20% discount too, so they really were a great value for the money. I opted for the polarized version since all of my sunglasses are. I like to fish so fishermen out there will understand what I'm saying. Needless to say, these do an amazing job at blocking sun glare.Long story short, if you are on the fence about buying these, just spend the extra money and get them. They are totally worth it, and you will get to look like a celebrity. LOL! When I am driving my car, I seriously feel like I'm Christian Bale racing in Le Man's. Ha ha!

These are terrific sunglasses for an active lifestyle. They wrap around your eyes and have a good but completely comfortable grip. I'm replacing a 30+ year old pair of Bausch & Lomb Baloramas (same model) and these from new manufacturer in Italy are just as good. The frames are a little glossier, but that is all I see different. The polarized lenses are outstanding - polarized to stop glare, and dark enough to keep your eyes comfortable.I love the way these keep dust out of my eyes in all conditions. When I bought the my first Baloramas I wore hard contacts and I couldn't walk the streets of DC on a windy day without them. There's just enough airflow to keep the eyes cool and the lenses fog free when I'm working on hot days.I think of these as a retro style, but I've had kids working at fast food restaurants tell me they "really like my sunglasses"!When I found I could still get this style in a high quality optical product, I was astounded. That is when I learned about the connection with the Eastwood movies. I'd worn this model for three decades and never knew they were a movie star. That really made my day.
