Ray-Ban’s appeal has continued to grow throughout the years, with the Wayfarer still being the eyewear of choice for the style-conscious throughout the decade.

Musicians like Bob Dylan, who was rarely seen without a pair, further added to Ray-Ban’s popularity.

The late 80s saw the company’s sales reach record highs as their sunglasses were seen on the likes of Michael Jackson, Johnny Marr, Madonna, and Elvis Costello to name a few.

Other models like the Clubmaster also became instant classics.

The brand is still just as popular today, with styles such as the Wayfarer and Aviator serving as the ultimate eyewear choice to go with any look.

For the classic choice of Ray-Ban, go for the Wafarer style.

Available in a multitude of colours or classic black.

Police

Launched in 1983 in Italy, the brand name was initially inspired by the eyewear sported by U.S cops in the 80s, but the vision developed to embrace a spectrum of different designs, materials, and colour schemes.

Police sunglasses embody metropolitan appeal, with an image that’s marketed midway between the present and the future.

This is a brand with a iconic style appeal; well represented by celebrities such as Bruce Willis, George Clooney, and David Beckham who have all lent their image to the brand over the years.

Made or those who prefer a classic style with a dynamic edge, the Police sunglasses collection incorporates lightweight frames and simple shapes, which combine technology and comfort.

Eye-catching designs and clean-cut products are part of the Police DNA – perfect for those craving a casual, sporty image.
