Brand History
Ray-Ban was established in 1937 by Bausch & Lomb, initially crafted for U.S. Air Force pilots to address the need for sunglasses that would reduce glare and enhance vision during flight. The brand’s first major breakthrough came with the Aviator model, designed with specialized lenses to protect pilots’ eyes from the intense sunlight at high altitudes. Ray Ban quickly became synonymous with effortless style and function, expanding its appeal with the launch of the Wayfarer in 1952, a bold, innovative design that broke away from traditional metal frames and soon became a staple of pop culture.
Throughout the decades, Ray-Ban has maintained its reputation by consistently blending timeless aesthetics with cutting-edge optical technology. Its sunglasses have been worn by countless celebrities, artists, and trendsetters, solidifying its status as an enduring icon in the fashion world. In 1999, Ray Ban was acquired by Luxottica, which further propelled the brand’s global reach and continued innovation. Today, RayBan remains a leader in the eyewear industry, celebrated for its commitment to quality, heritage, and the seamless fusion of classic and contemporary design elements.
