I lost them in the 90's & could not discover a current model that were the same. It appeared all the models at that time were bigger & rounder, so I didn't replace them. Then the "New Wayfarer" model came out & although they call it new, it reminds me of the elderly pair I had \. size, look, fit. So I bought a pair & am love'n them again. I use them for sailing, driving, hiking, rafting, travel, etc.
This is thing I have in common with Jack Nicholson \. a love for the way the Ray-Ban Wayfarer's look & fit. I first found an elderly used pair of Wayfarers at a garage sale for 25 cents back in the late 70's. They fit so well & the cost was right. I loved them. Later I learned that John F. Kennedy, Bob Dylan (on his first tour in England), & Jack Nicholson wore this model.
The 55mm New Wayfarer in classic tortoise (color 902) with the green lens is my cup of tea, although Dylan wore the black color. They stay on so well I don't need a strap to keep them on in the coursework of vigorous movement. & your eyelashes don't hit the lenses when you blink.
These sun shades actually block the wind better than some biking sun shades I bought. I also prefer the non-polarized green lens to the polarized lens that came in those self same biking sun shades. When I ride in to the shadows, the polarized lens blocked out much light & it was hard to see the pavement. The green lens let's in more light allowing me to see better in shadows, yet without being bright in sunny spots.Great gear!
