Classic. Amazingly strong, comfy, versatile sunglasses. One downside: because of their shape, they can\'t be perched on top of your head.

Gorgeous! I was looking for large Wayfarers and these fit the bill! I only like really big sunglasses, and these fit perfect, and are so comfortable! Thanks Zappos for the fast shipping!

I choose Zappos for its outstanding customer service. Sometimes if I choose regular ground, I may receive an email telling me my order will be there the next day! The free shipping both ways is the best, and help in choosing what I need in exchange is great!

I've been searching for sunglasses that worked on me for the longest time. While I was in Miami I came across a sunglasses hut and tried these on. The larger version definitely fit my head better than the standard size. At that moment I fell in love with them and ordered off Zappos immediately. They are my daily pair while I walk around Manhattan for work. They cut the sun tremendously but are able to do so without changing the color of the natural landscape. Great glasses.

I absolutely love Ray-Ban Wayfarers! I bought 2140 Large black on black. They are awesome. They give you an automatic rich Hollywood look! They go with any & everything. I have about 45 pairs of sunglasses and I pick these everytime! There's so many copycats of these but once you get the real thing you'll never go back EVER! They are big so if your small go for a smaller size but these fit perfectly for me. My friends try them on constantly and they look awesome on everyone!

I tried the medium sized Wayfarers and decided I wanted to try the 54 Large instead. Much better! There isn't an enormous difference in size, but it is noticeable. They didn't fit perfectly out of the box, so I took them to a reputable optical shop/lab and had them fitted to my face. I was very surprised at how malleable the plastic was; they used a special heater to bend the ends of the temples so they fit around my ears just right. This makes them more comfortable, and it also makes them stay on even if I'm moving my head around or bending to pick something up. The only things that aren't adjustable are the nosepads and their hardness takes a little getting used to. While I was at the shop, I had them remove the dumb Ray-Ban logo on the right-hand lens. The shop I went to did all this for free. The tortoise frames are much darker than they look in ads or photos; they almost look black at first glance. I'm going to keeping wearing these even after they go out of style! (again)

I love these sunglasses. I was worried because I have a narrow face but they fit great! I have a pair of the 48s and the 50s are much better. Surprising what a big difference in the size. I highly recommend!

I wore these glasses for 15 years or so when I was working outside in a lot of sunlight and they are the best I ever had, by far!

Excellent quality and fit. Just what I expected from Ray Bay. They are large, but I knew that when I bought them. Now, if they could only help me sing Pretty Woman better they would be perfect!

These glasses are great! They have the look of some much pricier brands, and look just as good!

Ray-Ban's 2140 - I love the original Ray-Ban sunglasses for their classic look. I am also happy that they are now sold in different colors. I do have one issue. The people who are responsible for inspecting orders are not doing an adequate job. One pair of the sun glasses I bought was not balanced properly at the temple. This has compromised the comfort and fit of the glasses. I will take them to an eye glass office and try to have them adjusted properly.

Ray Ban 2140 - These sunglasses are fantastic. The perfect shape for a rounder face, they are really comfortable and stylish. The lenses are great. They are green/grey but are almost true to color unlike most dark lensed sunglasses when you wear them. I recommend these sunglasses to anyone who wants quality, comfort and classical style.

Original Wayfarer - I've had three pairs of the original wayfarers and I ordered the third pair from Zappos. I had trouble finding them at mall stores and boutiques so I ordered them of Zappos. I bought some Vans shoes from Zappos before and my conclusion is that this site is awesome. So many other sites are bogus and unreliable. Zappos it the real deal. I dig the look a quality of the original, big wayfarers. They're rad.

H U G E - No one could ever say I have a little head, but these glasses were really big on me. Too big. So I am going to try the mediums. Unless you like giant sunglasses these might not be the one for you.

These glasses are just great. Now that I have them I'm getting all the girls! Every time I wear these, all the girls around want to put them on. They're very stylish and remind me of a 1950s beach look. Very cool!

The sunglasses are hands down the finest pair that I have ever owned. I was a little worried about purchasing sunglasses online (because of the sizing issue) but these were the perfect fit. I have a long head and larger features so this large frame complemented my head very well. This makes me more likely to use Zappos.com in the future!

I order the first pair and the frame is not straight so I return and order the second pair. Unfortunately, their hinges are ridiculously loose. I can't believe Zappos send such poor quality product to customer. I am so disappointed!

I admit, I started having second thoughts after ordering the 54mm Wayfarers, thinking they might be too large for my face, not at all. I'm middle aged with a medium size face and after trying them on, I liked the look. I asked my family, they said they look great! If you have a medium to large face, go with the 54mm. I'm very satisfied with my Ray Ban's.

Great looking sunglasses! Wasn't sure about ordering eyewear online, but with Zappos, there are no worries! Glasses look way cool, everyone wants them, I cant go anywhere without someone asking where I got them. I'm 6ft 1in, and not a little guy, they fit perfect! I was used to other eyewear with smaller lenses so they took a couple of wearings to get used to, but I do love these Ray Ban Wayfarers, the Original!

After contemplating sizes, I went with the Large Wayfarer in the tortoise. I read quite a few reviews (here and on other websites) saying these were bigger, but not overly large. Despite most of what I read describing these more for large faces/features, I went with it. I love a big statement. However, when I received them, I realized just how small my face was in comparison to these sunglasses. I have a round face with high cheekbones, so the frames sat on top of them… and it wasn't a very good look for me. These are great, but I would definitely agree with the majority -- these are ideal for larger heads/faces/features.

This style is MUCH larger than the original Wayfarer. Not at all the classic style. I am returning.

Ray Bans are wonderful and great sunglasses, but if you buy them, pray you never need them repaired! My lens cracked and chipped and needed to be replaced. I sent them back to Luxottica (Ray Bans' parent company) to be repaired, along with a check (which they happily cashed) for a service fee, and a letter with my mailing address, email address, and phone number asking to be contacted as to what the charges for the repair would be. I forgot about them for a few months, as it was no longer sunglasses season for me. Just realized that I never received them back, and called Luxottica. They 1st made up a story about sending me a letter by snail mail. when I asked when the letter was sent, the customer service rep hesitated and then put me on hold for 5 minutes. She came back and declared, actually, it was sent to you by email...this is after she had me re-confirm my mailing address because she told me the notification went out by snail mail. Bottom line, I never received any communication. Because I never answered the non-existent communication within 90 days, Luxottica discarded my expensive pair of sunglasses without even a 2nd attempt at contacting me. So, I paid them extra shipping to throw my sunglasses away. Now they want to offer me a percentage off a new pair instead of replacing my sunglasses. This seems like a gimmick to me to get me to buy a new pair. If you need your Ray Bans repaired, do so at your own risk. I'll certainly never buy another pair of Ray Bans ever again!

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
These did not disappoint! After reading other reviews, I worried about them resting on my cheeks, however it works perfect for me. My eyelashes are naturally long and wearing any type of eyewear is kind of uncomfortable due to my lashes pressing against the lenses, but the slight tilt is perfect. I’m very happy with my purchase:

Perfect fit! So glad that Zappos offered the larger size for my guy. Ray Ban website did not offer the large size so thank you Zappos for getting them to me quickly for a gift. He is happy with them!
