Ray-Ban Powderhorn Kalichrome Double Gradient Mirror Sunglasses
Vintage Ray-Ban Powderhorn sunglasses are one of the finest ski sunglasses ever produced, with a durable yet very stylish blue, white, and tan nylon frame that holds very rare Bausch & Lomb Kalichrome double gradient mirror lenses. The Bausch & Lomb double gradient mirrored lenses were designed to reflect glare in even the most extreme conditions of ice and glacial surroundings, and the gold mirror Kalichrome coating on the rear of the lens added even more UVA and UVB eye protection and also served to reflect the heat from the eye and face. Aside from the occasional Powderhorn, you'll only find vintage B&L Kalichrome DGM lenses on the even rare Deep Freeze models from the US Antarctica expeditions. The unisex Ray-Ban Powderhorn frame measures approximately 5.675" temple to temple, and the lenses measure approximately 2.25" x 1.875" at the widest points. 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 Powderhorn.
