Ray-Ban L2053 Wayfarer Tortoise Shell Sunglasses
1 Vintage Ray-Ban L2053 Wayfarer sunglasses combine the original
Ray-Ban tortoise shell shading with iconic Bausch & Lomb G-15 mineral glass lenses for
a classic cool look that's stood the test of time. It's a style and combination
made famous in movies from the 1970s and 1980s like Dirty Dancing and actors like Tom Cruise and Jack Nicholson,
and trust us that there is absolutely no comparison
between original B&L Ray-Ban Wayfarers and the ones made
by Luxottica after Bausch & Lomb sold the Ray-Ban brand in 1998. The unisex Ray-Ban L2053 Wayfarer frame measures approximately 5.5" temple to temple, and the G-15 lenses measure approximately 1.875" x 1.5" at the widest points with both lenses laser etched BL near the hinges. You'll find the Ray-Ban logo in raised metal relief on the exterior of both ear stems, and the inside of one stem is impressed B&L Ray-Ban USA while the inside of the other stem is impressed Wayfarer and on some production one ear pad is impressed L2053 OSAS.
