Man, mine are being weared almost daily for more than 10 years and they have not scratches at all. What they have is a little rust in the metallic parts in contact with the skin because the sweat.
Clearly his friend has zero understanding of how to properly treat property. My RB chromance had almost no wear after 3 years until I ate shit on some stairs. But I take care of my stuff.
I've got a pair with a black frame and red flash lenses. There's no scratches after 6 years. Things stay nice if you look after them and put them back in a decent case when you're not wearing them.
It's all dependant on the owners level of care. I left a pair of Oakleys in the car on a very hot day and they slowly started to blister, no fault of my own. I then bought 2 pairs of Arnettes about 4 years ago which are still like brand new. Look after them with love and they will outlast you,
i've had my rb rounds, which i wear almost daily, for almost 3 years. there's no evidence of wear as i frequently clean them with soap and water due to my oily skin smudging up the lenses. most sunglasses with the flash mirror coating are more prone to visible wear in general. yours look pretty normal to me. i'm ocd and baby my pricey possessions so there's that 🤓.
two years? I thought you were going to list side effects to wearing the make or somehing LOL. I've had my RB Polarized aviator for over 12 years now and counting. Top notch shades them Ray Ban's
Older ones got really good quality , I got two of them (aviators) one like 25 year old and one bought in 2017-18 , the older one is solid and it can be feel by touching hinges and nose pads , even glass but new one is just trash . The rods started turning green because of sweat and its colour also started removing a bit , I asked few of my friends though they also found Same things in their pairs
What’s the best way to clean your Ray Ban aviators? Is using rubbing alcohol okay? I got some a few months ago and love them! Just wanna take good care of them so they can last
@@DailyMoney925 in india , yes we do servicing of glasses but not every other day or week or month and yes I clean them everyday with the cloth they provide . Also glasses got wet very less times as I don't wear them in rainy days. Most probably they provide cheaper quality in india in respect to decrease prices and cost cutting purposes
Well, this is why I have several pairs of RB3025's so I can rotate them around so they don't wear out so quickly. Overall I think they are built fairly well and the quality of the materials are good.
I've had a pair of RB4057 for exactly 10 years. My only shades, and if it's sunny out I wear them. Still going strong. Never sat on em, but have dropped them a couple of times. Definitely would buy RB again as long as the pair I want are of Italian origen.
This is why i treat my ray bans as weekend sunglasses. Theyre like a treat for me to show off, take it easy glasses. I wear cheap sunglasses during the week so i dont mind if they get damaged.
Look at that thumbnail. Doesn’t get more clickbait than that.. you didn’t give any substantive reasons to avoid Ray Ban, you spent almost 5 minutes on this pair and the only negative was that the lense got dinged up. I was looking for a deeper dive into why I should avoid the brand, pros-cons over other aviators or other brands..
Wtf did this guy do to these glasses? I’ve had my RB clubmasters for almost 15 yrs and I’ve hardly hard to do anything but clean then and get them adjust every couple years. I plan to be buried with them on my face at this point.
I just bought some yesterday and this video made me feel better about it, I’ve felt so anxious but this video made me feel better I didn’t know you can replace them yourself
I have generally purchased Oakley, however I have always had issues when it came time to either invest in another pair or get new lenses. First, models come and go. Apparently the models I wear tend to go. Second, they do not offer replacement lenses for all of their sunglasses. Or, perhaps I should say that a couple of years down the road, perhaps after discontinuing a model, they no longer make replacement lenses. Had I known any of this was going to be the case, I would not have bought them in the first place. If RayBan supports their sunglasses with replacement lenses, I may not care if their lenses, perhaps, take less abuse than Oakley.
The mirrored coating on most name brand sunglass lenses is designed to get scratched and chipped. It's the manufacturer's way of trying to get you to spend more money on replacements. The aftermarket lens industry has literally exploded in recent years to take advantage of this.
Yeah, I fcked up my blue gradient Aviator lenses pretty quickly despite being not too careless with them. Will probably get grey non-gradient replacements lenses as my old school G-15 Wayfarer is still in pretty good condition.
Huge fan of your work as someone with blue eyes, the pigment issue makes shades almost always essential for me outdoors. Love the reviews and authenticity of them in general. I'll admit I've hardly ever had a pair last me more than a year or two. I guess I can count myself among the fortunate who can afford 300$+ on shades twice per year. I try to make them last but like most people I'll end up breaking them or losing them. I have yet to even be able to review after two years for these reasons. With wear and tear I feel like a year is the most I expect which for the price is fair. I'd pay a dollar per day for good eye protection and that averages out to 365$ which can go a long way for shades.
Shade Review I have not but I may get a pair of cobalt aviators like the ones you reviewed. I’ve been told Randolph made the OG military aviators back in the day. I also like that they can be engraved
Shade Review my birthday is tomorrow and I’m torn between the Randolph cobalt aviators and the Maui Jim Mavericks. I have had several Maui Jim’s and like their quality but I hear Randolph is a whole new level in terms of reliability.
I like the video format! Mirrored lenses are so cool but it's a shame how well scratches show up. I just bought my wife a pair of Randolph Concordes in cobalt flash mirror, I'm hoping they hold up a little better than these Ray Bans. I've got a couple of flash mirrored pairs myself but I am very careful with them. Definitely have been leaning more towards the plain brown lenses lately as they aren't as loud.
I own thesame color and i used while swimming at the sea. Totally forgot to rinse it with water and when i took it out again the metal has already got some green patches
@@srgmag1971 lol when you went underwater of course goggles are the one. I don' dive under, it' more of dip swimming. I use sunglasses to protect my eyes, if you know you know, but obviously you don't
Not impressed with Ray-Ban's quality lately. I bought 2 completely different models from their website and they BOTH make creak / squeaking noises when picked up. They look great but feel cheap. One pair even has a slight gap between the frame and lens. I wrote to them about it but never even got a reply 🙄
I'm still waiting on my replacement ray bans. Remember one lens was bigger? Significantly bigger! Still waiting! This is the first I ever had a problem with them. But I'm letting it slide some because of all the stuff going on in the world.
Just a couple times? Sounds like a standard drunk answer: How much you drink today? Oh just a couple beers... yeah sure. Also, NEVER touch the lenses... I dont think the owner took a good care of it at all.
I've had a variety of Ray ban aviators (2 pairs of brown, one pair of grey gradients) last 5+ years with minimal wear. Basically I drop them every so often and there are small scratches on the lens that are only noticeable upon close inspection. I'd clean them maybe once a week. I had a pair of Oliver Peoples in a similar style that seemed no better quality for some 8 years before I gave them away to a girlfriend.
What’s the best way to clean your Ray ban aviators? Is using rubbing alcohol okay? I got some a few months ago and love them ... just wanna take good care of them so they’ll last!
If I had no experience with Ray Ban Aviators I would say that's unacceptable. But I do have many years of experience with them...several pairs at that. My first pair were red mirrors, they ate shit on concrete and tile etc until I realized they can't be worn on top of a hat. I wore those 7 months of the year daily and they look practically new minus nicks and scratches that always happen. My black and brown polarized have held up fine also. Heck, my eye glasses I wore for 8 years straight are in better condition than these. I'd hazard a guess that you don't lend your friend much.
Hi, I´ve a question for you. All the rayban aviators has the " Ray Ban Made in italy " On top of the bridge? I have a pair but i little bit concern about IT because I went to the ray ban´s store and I saw many aviators with that signature on the frames
Pretty cool experiment shadebrah, the fact those weren't broken, stolen or lost in a 2 year span by the average person is already quite a feat lol. Especially since they were gifted to him. I do wonder what kind of condition theyd be in after a 2 year span by someone that was ocd about taking care of them.
As expected, Ray-Ban is the best ratio quality/price ever, and the best at all ! Nice "mat" golden frame by the way, and wear gives a certain unique charm to the sunglasses :) Keep going, friend xD !
i have not worn them every day, but all my Ray Bans are old, i mean pre 99. and i got aviators from 74.. not a scratch. ! I suppose Bausch is a different world. i own a pair of modern ones but..not the same. Shame the way and care those lenses were made is not done now. Diamond Hard, now it's all cheap.. and so expensive too.
@@ShadeReview sure, yes, these things I see do tend to be getting expensive out there, for sure. Mine are the round, from 93 survivors collection. best purchase ever. Sure you can find a good pair on ebay! cheers!
I am 14 and my raybans don't look that bad. Well I have 2 pairs one polarized and custom made. Then have my other pair is non polarized and I use for biking etc. Not to flex or anything lol.
lol dont ride with ray bans if you fall the lenses will shatter then you will need eye suregry and you probably wont be able to see out of that eye again get a pair of oakleys or randolphs they have super tough lenses that will hold up to a grenade bomb
Nah, u r literally flexing, ull look back at this comment one day and cringe. 2 pairs of rays, one polarised and custom made and another normal pair which ur mummy paid for, simmer down kid and go play fortnite.
Dear Shade Review, they say to replace your sun glasses every so often as lens become less effective due to sun exposure, uv rays, etc, in addition to wear and tear. Do you have an opinion on when to replace our RB aviator lens?
I wore a pair of 5000's for over 10 years with little signs of use . Then I made the mistake of putting them on top of my head . They fell back and hit the gym floor and went into pieces ! Very depressing !
I purchase a pair of Aviators this week but because I need a prescription I paid £315 for them. The lenses cost me one arm and one leg. I would hate to have to replace them.
I have a Ray Ban's lightrays, I dunno if the ones I got are a limited edition because I haven't seen a review in your channel, I hope if you can get the model, please upload a video just looking forward for your review, you're the best man!
Plastic/polycarbonate lenses tend to get scratched much more easily comparing to glass lenses. I wonder if Aviator mirror lenses are made of plastic, as opposed to the glass lenses of regular Aviators.
I have the exact same model, but polarized. A such, they have glass lenses that would most definitely not wear down like that. I also exchanged my pair for a new one after a few weeks, because sweat infiltrated underneath the transparent temple tips and it caught a green oxidation thingy, because those tips are pretty loose and they are not watertight. Nonetheless, if you a re a little on the OCD side, like me, and handle the sunglasses like a newborn, they won't wear down much, honestly.
my oakley flak 2.0 xls i have had for almost 2 years and they look great therese basically no scratches unless you look very hard you might see 1 or 2 micro micro scratches im stick to 3 brands oakley randoph and maui jim this is the problem with rb you showed it in this video they get beat up way too fast i basically abuse my oaks dropped them a couple times steeped on them mutiple times my dog grabbed em and started chewing on them beleive me they look as good as new im not sure why anyone would pay this much for rb sunglasses if there goona look like that! i am very careful with randolph and maui jim though because they have glass lenses and well yea if you can figure out im a pretty active person and they wont hold up to the abuse that i give my oakleys but ray ban step your game up man this is horrible my buddy has a pair of these he takes great care of them and they still look like that not as bad but hes only had them for 7 months. never going to look at a pair of ray bans ever again!
I’ve noticed and I just got my polarized aviators that I can catch my reflection of my eyes and that they aren’t that dark compared to my Oakley sutro and costas but they def look cool but they aren’t that functional bc light gets in from the sides.
Just bought my wife a pair of custom andy rb's. But me I have only used Oakley for years and despite the shit talkers Oaks are without a doubt worth their price. I just changed out my stock lenses on my straight jackets after almost 4 years the only evidence of wear was around the inside area where the lenses meet the frame. I find if you pop out your lenses and clean them with warm water and soap they stay brilliant. Hope my wife's rb's last for what I paid for them.
Return them and buy from us ShadeReviewStore.com we do a special heat treatment to help prevent that from happening and we also quality control every pair by hand
@@ShadeReview Thanks, I’ll keep it in my mind! I’ll return it anyway but really don’t know what to get instead. Lens wise the 58 mm perfect but the temples are too tight, squeezing the side of my head, leaving marks, really painful. I also ordered the 62 mm and the lens is a bit too big but the temples still too tight. Tried to adjust but didn’t help. Not sure if the new Aviators would make any difference due to the different temple design. I highly doubt it as the dimensions are identical. Maybe I need to look around at different brands, thinking about Maui Jim Mavericks or Serengeti Carrera instead.
As a middle aged man, I can tell you Ray Bans have a habit of disappearing, leaving your house for good forcing you to buy another one. It is a mystery. 🙄
@@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess Lot's of folks... In US ? I'm from Paris, and to me what is not made in France (Chanel) or Italy (Luxottica) or Suisse (Rolex) is not good LOL ! To be much more serious : thinking that China production has less quality than US or French or Italian ones, that's just racism and bullshit. I have been in Shanghaï in 2009, as professor of mechanics, and they rule the way they want, the quality they want ! So I don't care about where it is from, I just care about QUA-LI-TY !
I wore my RB chromance for 3 years and they are almost perfect. Finally scratched the lens when I ate shit on some stairs (buying Mauis to replace). Other than that like new with some yellowing on the nose pads as too be expected.
Could be this color lens, my ray bans were almost everyday wearers for almost a year and still look new, but i baby most nice things i own, sunglasses watches and clothes 🤷♂️
Shade Review Yeah. The same uv protection anyway. I think the chips give it character. I would never replace them though I’d use the money to get another style so I’d have more options 😎
Glad mine just came in the mail today. Bought them from jomashop like you recommended but I can't say I believe they're 100% real. The case seems thinner compared to my ray ban justin case, and the hinges didnt snap on opening Edit: in fact, I know they aren't real. You promoted a website that sells non-authentic products and I figured I could trust someone that bases their entire channel around sunglasses reviews :/ $100 for fake shit
It does state on their web page "authenticity guaranteed." I bought a pair of sunglasses from them last year and mine are definitely genuine. If you don't like them get an RMA and send them back for a refund.
Bro the sunglasses sold from Jomashop are 100% real. I haven’t gotten over 20 plus pairs from them.. they also sell $20,000 Rolex watches definitely no selling fakes

my oakley flak 2.0 xls i have had for almost 2 years and they look great therese basically no scratches unless you look very hard you might see 1 or 2 micro micro scratches im stick to 3 brands oakley randoph and maui jim this is the problem with rb you showed it in this video they get beat up way too fast i basically abuse my oaks dropped them a couple times steeped on them mutiple times my dog grabbed em and started chewing on them beleive me they look as good as new im not sure why anyone would pay this much for rb sunglasses if there goona look like that! i am very careful with randolph and maui jim though because they have glass lenses and well yea if you can figure out im a pretty active person and they wont hold up to the abuse that i give my oakleys but ray ban step your game up man this is horrible my buddy has a pair of these he takes great care of them and they still look like that not as bad but hes only had them for 7 months. never going to look at a pair of ray bans ever again!
Everyday for 2 years. Really? That's 730 days straight. That's truly unbelievable.
I’m sure he doesn’t where them on rainy days
@@TbonesTech then he liieeddd
I would expect a bit more after 2 years when you paying that amount.
just take care of them
I’ve noticed and I just got my polarized aviators that I can catch my reflection of my eyes and that they aren’t that dark compared to my Oakley sutro and costas but they def look cool but they aren’t that functional bc light gets in from the sides.
i boight it 2016 but i used occationally once two time in year with close keep with caring but now My rayban colour gone. so its fake or original?
Just bought my wife a pair of custom andy rb's. But me I have only used Oakley for years and despite the shit talkers Oaks are without a doubt worth their price. I just changed out my stock lenses on my straight jackets after almost 4 years the only evidence of wear was around the inside area where the lenses meet the frame. I find if you pop out your lenses and clean them with warm water and soap they stay brilliant. Hope my wife's rb's last for what I paid for them.
Which lens was this ??
dude , can I know about material of theses lenses?
I’ve ordered a brand new Aviator directly from Ray-Ban and the temples writing can simply be wiped off with my finger… 😕
Return them and buy from us ShadeReviewStore.com we do a special heat treatment to help prevent that from happening and we also quality control every pair by hand
@@ShadeReview
Thanks, I’ll keep it in my mind!
I’ll return it anyway but really don’t know what to get instead. Lens wise the 58 mm perfect but the temples are too tight, squeezing the side of my head, leaving marks, really painful. I also ordered the 62 mm and the lens is a bit too big but the temples still too tight. Tried to adjust but didn’t help. Not sure if the new Aviators would make any difference due to the different temple design. I highly doubt it as the dimensions are identical.
Maybe I need to look around at different brands, thinking about Maui Jim Mavericks or Serengeti Carrera instead.
Pls suggest is it worth to buy this shade of RB
Get them without flash or mirror lenses, they’ll last a lot longer
My sunglasses never last 2 years
Oh no haha
then get randolph
so, where do you find the replacement lenses? .They don't have any in the official website
customersupport.luxottica.com/wcsstore/ray-ban.html
@@ShadeReview thank you.
hey man, why the low quaility? No HD
RUclips is taking its time processing... check back in 30min and the video should be processed in 4K
Take a shot every time he says “two years”
After 2year how is it condition??
As a middle aged man, I can tell you Ray Bans have a habit of disappearing, leaving your house for good forcing you to buy another one. It is a mystery. 🙄
Prefer Randolphs
Maybe in 2 years you will get another video like this on a pair of Randolph Aviators haha!
Thanks for watching Don!
U iZ KraZzzzY dude !
@@GnrlZBenZ Randolph's are USA made, that is a big plus for a lot of folks
@@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess Lot's of folks... In US ? I'm from Paris, and to me what is not made in France (Chanel) or Italy (Luxottica) or Suisse (Rolex) is not good LOL ! To be much more serious : thinking that China production has less quality than US or French or Italian ones, that's just racism and bullshit. I have been in Shanghaï in 2009, as professor of mechanics, and they rule the way they want, the quality they want ! So I don't care about where it is from, I just care about QUA-LI-TY !
Nice quarantine beard
How did you know that’s what it was 😂😂 thanks
Was the frame gold ? Or gold plated ? 🤔
I wore my RB chromance for 3 years and they are almost perfect. Finally scratched the lens when I ate shit on some stairs (buying Mauis to replace). Other than that like new with some yellowing on the nose pads as too be expected.
straight after i get an ad for sunglasses for £6, wtf? :'D
What about your titanium aviators?
They are still in good shape. but I haven't warn them too much
I had a pair for 5 years and it is fine just use a cloth
Could be this color lens, my ray bans were almost everyday wearers for almost a year and still look new, but i baby most nice things i own, sunglasses watches and clothes 🤷♂️
Also could have something to do with he didn't buy them himself so he wasn't that concerned about beating them up
That is also definitely true!
It looks like your friend was a wipe my glasses with my shirt kind of guy
I have the same glasses 4 yrs perfect condition! I do not sit on them or drop them...Your friend needs to be more responsible. Lol
Oh noes, no anti reflection backside coating
you only get that on polairzed ray bans becasue they are cheep af
I don’t think the lenses looked that bad. I bet they still work the same.
You can see some of the chips in your vision but the uv protection is the same
Shade Review
Yeah. The same uv protection anyway. I think the chips give it character. I would never replace them though I’d use the money to get another style so I’d have more options 😎
Oh brother...
Glad mine just came in the mail today. Bought them from jomashop like you recommended but I can't say I believe they're 100% real. The case seems thinner compared to my ray ban justin case, and the hinges didnt snap on opening
Edit: in fact, I know they aren't real. You promoted a website that sells non-authentic products and I figured I could trust someone that bases their entire channel around sunglasses reviews :/ $100 for fake shit
It does state on their web page "authenticity guaranteed." I bought a pair of sunglasses from them last year and mine are definitely genuine. If you don't like them get an RMA and send them back for a refund.
Bro the sunglasses sold from Jomashop are 100% real. I haven’t gotten over 20 plus pairs from them.. they also sell $20,000 Rolex watches definitely no selling fakes
Send me some pics to my Instagram if you want tho
I think ray bons are good
anybody agree
Why u not read my chat??
Those are chromance though, so they will scratch easier and pit easier
No these are the glass blue flash mirrored actually
@@ShadeReview oh damn, I thought they were chromance, what is even the difference ?
WE BROKE GODS LAW. 2000 YEARS AGO, GOD BECAME A HUMAN BEING JESUS OF NAZARETH WHO SUFFERED AND TOOK OUR PUNISHMENT ON THE CROSS. THE BIBLE SAYS IF WE DECLARE WITH OUT MOUTH JESUS IS LORD AND BELIEVE IN OUR HEART GOD RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD YOU SHALL BE SAVED. Romans 10-9. GOD WILL FORGIVE YOUR SINS AND GRANT YOU EVERLASTING LIFE ALL BECAUSE OF WHAT JESUS DID ON THE CROSS.
Flimsy sunglasses compared to Randolph .
First.
Yo 🤟
Love it
Thanks!
