Ray Ban sunglasses
« on: February 16, 2022, 07:21:33 AM »
Their quality seems to be not as good as it once was. Bought a new pair a month ago. I treated them with kid gloves.
But now an arm and a nose piece broke off and all i did was put them back into the case they came in.
I took them out to wear and these were broke off, and there it was at the bottom of the case. And their customer service sucks. So i am going back with Under Armor, i hear they are much better so is Oakley.

LOL, I buy my reading glasses at Walmart, and my sunglasses there to.

My kids pay out the nose for expensive sunglasses, but not me.

Italy is havein a hard go of it economically. Maybe that’s why quality has dropped?

Haven't bought any expensive sunglasses
in a very long time.
I have too many pairs in the lakes and the
Gulf and along the highways.
I buy a half a dozen pairs at the time

Yep, and they aren't the Ray-Bans of old. I wore a pair of the old ones for years and years and finally managed to drop them off the roof onto a concrete patio. They liked just a teeny bit bouncing hige enough for me to catch them and the second landing broke one of the lenses in half. It was strictly my fault but I switched cheap sunglasses after that.

Fast forward to early 2020 and I got a deal on Ray-Bans after cataract surgery so I bought a pair as they have always been my favorite sunglasses and I figuered being retired I wouldn't be doing something dumb like dropping them off a house. I was gently cleaning them when one lens fell out and hit the floor and of course the lens chipped. It was a small chip and I put the lens back in place and made sure it was in the frame correctly and the screw is tight. The chip is almost unnoticeable but I do hold them over the bed to clean them now----just in case.

Replacement lens are available reasonably on ebay.
