Ray-Ban Men's RB2027 Predator 2 Rectangular Sunglasses

Comment

These are *almost* an exact replacement for the Maui Jim Typhoon sunglasses, which went out of production many years ago. If you are like me, and love/loved your Typhoons, then these will likely be good enough replacements. I had my Typhoons from 1997 until about one month ago, when they were destroyed. The Predator 2s from Ray Ban fit my face almost exactly the same as the Maui Jim Typhoons, they are almost the same shape, are almost the same coverage for side light intrusion, and are still in production so I could actually buy a pair. The Predator 2s do not have the spring loaded arms like the Typhoons had, but really, I dont miss the spring loading at all. Honestly I wore the Typhoons for so long, I frequently forget that Im wearing the Predator 2s, and am surprised when I see that they are the Ray Bans after I take them off. I bought the polarized lenses.

They are not made of NASA grade pyrex. They are not even Bausch and Lomb glass. I dont know what the heck they are made of. They are polarized, I hope.. The frames are NOT solid gold. They are not gold plated. They are plastic. So, what did I pay $150 for? A name. A name and a pair of extremely overpriced sunglasses underneath the paint that says RayBan. That, and the hope they are not fakes. I have heard Amazon has sold fakes in the past. They better hold up, thats all I can say.

These are replacing my all-black RayBan Olympians that I lost, which I had for 20 years, and are no longer produced. The RayBan Predators fit perfectly and have glass lenses that are of top quality. These are the same glasses that Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones wore in the original Men In Black film. They look classic and stylish without being obnoxious or Oakley-ish. You can wear these with a suit, or with jeans and a T-shirt, or with shorts and a Hawaiian shirt and these sunglasses will complete the look appropriately with the highest degree of style and functionality. G-15 lenses are non-polarized and provide amazing clarity and coverage.

I have been wearing Ray-Ban Predator sunglasses for over 20 years. I think this is my 5th pair. I have worn Oakley, Wiley, and Maui Jim and these are the only sunglasses consistently fit well. I have even had prescription lenses put in them in the past. If I scratch the lenses, I get replacements. I wear them until they break, or my wife borrows them and loses them. I will always have a pair, as long as they keep making them.

I am somewhat disappointed in these Ray-Ban shades, my first pair in 20 years. The design causes them to fit naturally too low, well below my eyebrows, due to the design of the nose area. I was expecting them to fit correctly at the height of my eyebrows. Having already added prescription lenses, Im committed now, but not happy with the result. They should cover the brows. It is okay, its passable, but doesnt quite look as good this way. I call it a design flaw. And dont tell me my face is shaped wrong! :)
