Perhaps
the singlest rarest Revo design ever produced, it is impossible
to resist the eye catching style of the Revo 962 053 sunglasses
with gold mirrored lens and tortoise shell ear stems. Revo uses
a brushed gold metal with black highlights in this design on the
front of the frame to hold the lens, and the brushed gold perfectly
reflects and complements the highly reflective oval gold mirror
lens of the 962 sunglasses design. Once you're around the corner
of the temple, the tortoise shell also picks up hues of orange the
similarly complement the gold mirrored lens to make this one of
the best designs Revo ever produced. The gold mirror lens is highly
reflective, great for sunlight and UV protection without the downsides
of polarization (polarization has its positives too- read about
the tradeoffs on our polarized versus non-polarized sunglasses information
page). Best of all, the gold mirror looks super cool. These are
perfect as men's or women's sunglasses, with frame measuring approximately
5.0" temple to temple and lens measuring 1.875" x 1.75"
at the widest points. The Revo logo is embossed on the exterior
of both tortoise shell ear stems near the hinge points, and the
inside of the ear stem is marked CE 962/053 Frame Japan. Revo 962
053 sunglasses are almost impossible to find in any condition, so
if we have a pair in stock we certainly advise not waiting to buy
because they never last very long on the site.

A
unique, early Ray-Ban interpretation of classic tortoise shell sunglasses,
these Ray-Ban W1723 Chromax sunglasses are decidedly not your usual
preppy design. There are several unique design features incorporated
into these early Ray-Bans, most notably the striking flecks of purple
that add a lot of design flair to these vintage sunglasses. The
purple highlights really catch the light, and it gives the sunglasses
a really superb look on the face as you will see in the photographs.
This style is one of our most popular Ray-Ban styles, but they're
hard to find and were produced only in small quantities during their
production run. The shape is also unique, with more elongated oval
lenses than is the norm and, when combined with the purple accents
in the tortoise shell of the frame, it gives these vintage sunglasses
a really unique look. Ray-Ban Chromax Lenses employed Bausch &
Lomb color contrast technology designed to enahnce key outdoor colors
such as green, amber and red, making them appear brighter and easier
to see while providing sharp, clear perception of details. Combining
maximum function and 100% UV protection, Ray-Ban Chromax lenses
are ideal for a wide variety of outdoor activties requiring accurate
hand-eye coordintation such as golf, tennis, and driving. The frame
measures approximately 5.25" temple to temple making them the
perfect unisex size, and the lenses measure approximately 1.875"
x 1.375" at the widest points. The right lens is inscribed
with the Ray-Ban logo in script, and both lens have the small BL
logo etched in the glass near each hinge point. The exterior of
one ear stem has the Ray-Ban logo near the hinge point, the inside
of one ear stem is marked B&L Ray-Ban U.S.A. impressed in the
frame, and the inside of the other stem is marked W1723 YJAS and
DISC. also impressed in the frame. It' just a great look for men
or women, part of a Kansas City, MO estate collection of vintage
eyewear exclusive to the Vintage Sunglasses Shop.

If
you're like us and like the combination of tortoise shell frames
with Revo blue mirrored H20 polarized lens, then vintage Revo 1005
008 sunglasses will surely attract your interest. Not many Revo
1005 sunglasses were made, so when we're fortunate enough to have
a pair for sale they don't last long on the site. It's really a
striking, eye catching design, and the French frame is an excellent
size for men's or women's sunglasses measuring approximately 5.0"
temple to temple. The oval lenses measure 1.875" x 1.75"
at the widest points, and the left lens is marked H20 to indicate
this is a polarized lens. The Revo logo is embossed on the outside
of each ear stem near the spring loaded hinge points, and the inside
of the ear stem is marked 1005/008 CE Frame France. Very hard to
find, these Revo 1005 008 sunglasses were part of a Malibu, CA estate
collection of top designer sunglasses sold exclusively through the

A
low production variation of classic Ray-Ban aviator sunglasses,
check out the use of unique tortoise shell highlights in this gold
plated aviator frame of these beautiful Ray-Ban vintage Tortuga
aviator sunglasses. Typical Ray-Ban green G-15 lenses would have
been contradictory with the look of the gold and tortoise Tortuga
frame, but we think the use of the light brown Ray-Ban photochromatic
lens was the perfect choice. This lens will darken somewhat in sunlight,
but it appears a light brown indoors so the sunglasses adjust to
different light conditions and they can be worn comfortably inside
or outside. Both lens have the BL logo etched in the glass near
the hinge points, and the right lens also has the Ray-Ban logo in
script. The top bar of the double aviator nose bridge is marked
B&L Ray-Ban USA impressed in the metal, and the bottom of the
nose bridge is marked B&L Ray-Ban 58 [] 14. Great variation
of the classic Ray-Ban aviator sunglasses design, direct from a
Santa Monica, CA estate liquidation.

If
you like the look of smaller size sunglasses that can be worn by
men or women, it's hard to do better than the vintage Revo 1105
001 Italian design that combines an matte black frame with Revo's
blue mirrored lens surrounded by a thin band of yellow tortoise
shell. The blue mirrored lens of these sunglasses pick up plenty
of hues of purple in the sunlight, and it's impossible to ignore
the effect when you see them - sure to generate questions and compliments
for the wearer. Each spring loaded hinge point at the corner of
the temples has an etched design in the metal for added design flair,
and the Revo logo is raised in the metal of both ear stems near
the hinge points. The ear pads a glossier black, complementing the
matte black metal frame and effectively completing the design. The
frame measures approximately 4.75" temple to temple, and each
lens measures approximately 1.5" x 1.5" at the widest
points. You'll love the combination of tortoise, matte black metal
frame, and the Revo blue mirrored lens that combine to make this
one of Revo's most distinctive designs. The inside of the ear stem
is marked 1105/001 Frame Italy, and these 1105 sunglasses also retain
the original marked Revo celluloid nose pads. It's a great design,
one of a pair of Revo 1105 sunglasses exclusive to Collectics from
a San Diego, CA collector of vintage Revo, Ray-Ban, and Giorgio
Armani sunglasses.

Ray-Ban gold plated outdoorsman shooter sunglasses feature the B&L
Kalichrome C yellow hunting and shooting lens, sunglasses which
can sell for over $1200 in the Asia Pacific region and always top
dollar in American and European markets. The precision ground and
highly polished glass B&L Kalichrome C lens is a yellow high contrast
lens free of waves or any other defects that could distort vision
or cause eye strain. The B&L Kalichrome lenses are famous worldwide
for their ability to intensify and enhance the visual spectrum,
and sporting enthusiasts and pilots everywhere swear by these glasses
when in difficult visibility situations. If you've never worn a
pair of Ray-Ban Kalichrome yellow lens sunglasses then you just
won't realize how much objects seem to leap out at you in any light
situation, providing a degree of visual acuity that is really unsurpassed
by any other optical quality sunglasses lens. The B&L Kalichrome
lens actually intensifies light and increases contrast, not to mention
they look cool. The shooter style is similar to the aviator but
sits a bit higher up on the face, and the area between the lens
is smaller and separated by a circular ring that aficionados call
the bullet hole. These vintage Ray-Ban outdoorsman Kalichrome shooter
sunglasses have the cable temples to provide a secure fit along
with their cool utilitarian look. The teardrop yellow Kalichrome
lens measures approximately 2.375" x 2.0" at the widest
point, and the frame measuring approximately 5.25" temple to
temple is marked B&L Ray-Ban USA impressed in the gold plated
metal on top of the nose bridge. B&L refers to this style and
lens as "Gradient Density Sunglasses" and notes in their
period product literature that "these lenses have been filled
with a metallic coating to obtain a vertical density gradation.
This coating is hard and durable and, with reasonable care, lenses
will remain in good condition." Since we have access to period
B&L Ray-Ban product information and research, we also thought
it relevant to pass on B&L's recommendation that you "make
sure that this sun glass is properly aligned horizontally before
your eyes, so that equal densities are encountered by both eyes."
Everyone at the Vintage Sunglasses Shop gets excited when we find
Ray-Ban Kalichrome yellow shooters in good condition, and we guarantee
you will be astounded by the visual acuity provided by these glasses
or return them for a full refund. If these are sold out, you may
also wish to check our identical vintage 10k
and 12k
gold filled bullet hole Kalichrome shooters.

1.Very
fine example of rare Revo 1112 011 sunglasses carry on the 1112
model line form but with the desirable Revo stealth mirrored lens
and black ear stems with gold Revo embossed logo. Put it all together
and it's an elegant look, classy and yet sure to get noticed!
The light blue stealth mirror lens is one of the most popular
out of a pantheon of great Revo lenses, and we think nothing looks
better with it than brushed metal nose bridge and hinges and black
ear stems. The frame measures approximately 5.0" temple to
temple to make it perfect as a unisex style, and the lens measure
1.75" x 1.25" at the widest points. The Revo logo is
embossed on each ear stem near the spring loaded hinges, and the
inside of the ear stem is marked CE 1112/011 (2 of the numbers
have faded but this is the full style #) and Frame Italy. These
vintage Revo 1112 011 sunglasses also retain the original and
marked Revo celluloid nose pads, part of a major purchase from

2. Sometimes we
receive from an estate collection a great pair of rare vintage
sunglasses that just don't quite live up to our condition standards
but are too good to pass up. Of course, we are also able to pass
substantial cost savings on to you. These vintage and rare Revo
1112 011 sunglasses are 100% authentic and identical to the ones
above and shown in the photos, but they have a few very light
lens rub marks on the mirror finish that kept them from a main
listing on the site. We could see them when looking closely and
angled under a light source, but they were not visible when worn
out in the sunlight which of course is the primary reason you
buy sunglasses. The few light scuffs disqualified them from a
primary listing on the site, but we're pleased to offer them to
you here at a heavily discounted price as part of our Second
Chance Program.

If
you like eye catching style yet classic elegance, you will appreciate
the design and quality of Revo 953 008 sunglasses that combine a
super cool tortoise shell front frame, antique gold ear stems, and
very rare Revo orange mirrored lens. Over the years, most every
person here at the Vintage Sunglasses Shop has worn this model as
their personal favorite, and it's easy to see why. Cool design features
include the slightly flared at the temple frame shape, the etched
gold hinges at each temple, and the impressed in the metal Revo
logo on each ear stem near the hinge points. It's hard to beat the
look of tortoise shell and Revo's highly reflective orange mirrored
lenses which incorporate optical lens technology originally developed
by a NASA engineer for the U.S. space program. Men and women here
have all worn the 953 style, for the frame is a perfect unisex size
measuring approximately 5.25" temple to temple. The lens measure
approximately 1.875" x 1.75" at the widest points, and
the orange mirrored lens picks up plenty of reddish hues in the
sunlight. The inside of the ear stem is marked 953-008 Frame Japan,

Perhaps
the single most distinctive style of sunglasses in the market, we
invite you to enjoy the unique style of Cazal Model 958 German sunglasses.
Eclectic and very cool design features include the widely spaced
double gold bar of the front top frame and around to the hinges,
the double vertical darker bars right in the center, the thin laywer
of tortoise that frame the round lens - round being the perfect
complement to the extreme horizonal and angular design of the double
gold bar. The darker color bars from the front center are repeated
on the side around the Cazal logo near the hinge points, adding
a good bit of flair to the design but in a subtle way. The frame
measures a nice 5.25" temple to temple, and each lens is about
1.75" in diameter. The Cazal logo is on both ear stems near
the hinge points, and the inside of one stem is marked Cazal Mod
958 Col. 33 and the inside of the other stem is marked Made In Germany
Cazal. You will see the Cazal 958 in fashion shoots and on the faces
of male and female celebrities worldwide, but it's an affordable
fashion statement that's so unique you'll never have to worry about
going out and seeing someone else wearing your sunglasses.

In
a style that created a frenzy at our last public show, we are glad
to once again offer a pair of vintage Revo 3046 001 sunglasses with
blue mirrored Revo P H20 lenses. If you like Oakley sunglasses but
find the style a little too extreme, check out the more subtle wrap
and classic style of the Revo 3046 sunglasses. The sleek, streamlined
design looks like it's so aerodynamic that it will help you fun
faster and jump farther, and of course the Revo P H20 lens technology
provides the best possible infrared and UV protection for your eyes.
The black metal frame and integrated black ear pads make them look
particularly striking when combined with the highly reflective blue
mirror lenses, one of which is marked Revo P and the other marked
H20. The frame measures approximately 5.25" temple to temple
for a good unisex size, the the elongated Revo lens measure approximately
2.25" x 1.25" at the widest points. The Revo logo is inscribed
on the ear stems near each spring loaded hinge point, and the inside
of one ear stem is marked Revo Made in Italy CE Polarized and the
inside of the other stem marked 3046 001/62 58 [] 16 125. The 3046
is a very streamlined design that looks to us like a modern interpretation
of the streamlined design of the Art Deco period, and you can't
beat Revo frame and polarized lens quality.

Like
a variation on a good theme, Revo did several combinations of this
style of frame and lens combination, but for us none looks better
than the brushed silver and highly reflective blue mirrored lens
which are featured on these Revo 1101 011 sunglasses. We love how
Revo uses the metal only at the top of these lenses in a design
flared a bit at the temple, and the lenses themselves are secured
with a screw closure and metal band that hides behind the top of
the frame to make it invisible. The blue mirrored lens is set in
a thin band of metal down the sides and across the bottom, while
the top of the frame forms a top horizontal bar for the lenses -
the thick and thin contrast catches the eye - that looks great with
the brushed metal look. The frame measures approximately 5.5"
temple to temple, and each uniquely shaped elongated lens measures
approximately 2.0" x 1.5" at the widest points. The Revo
logo is impressed in the metal of each ear stem near the spring
loaded hinge points plus they retain the original marked Revo celluloid
nose pads, and the inside of the ear stem is maked 1101/011 Frame
Italy CE.

The
legendary handmade Alpina M1 sport sunglasses were made in West
Germany and first introduced in the 1980s and remains one of the
most popular brands and styles of any vintage sunglasses today.
It's easy to see why, with a modern look and gold rivets which decoate
the top of the frame and the curve of the nose. While all Alpina
M1 sunglasses are rare today, certain color combinations are more
sought after such as these black Alpina M1 sunglasses with gold
bands and rivets. Alpina sunglasses like their ski goggles are handmade
in Germany, and those marked W. Germany such as these date to the
years prior to the reunification of East and West Germany. You will
have seen many celebrities wearing vintage Alpina M1 sunglasses
including Victoria Beckham and rapper and music mogul Jay-Z. It's
a cool unisex style and size, with frame measuring approximately
5.375" temple to temple and teardrop shaped lens measuring
approximately 2.5" x 2.0" at the widest points. The inside
of the top frame has correct Alpina marks etched in the metal reading
Alpina M1 Made in W. Germany 2266260 and the lower bar of the nose
bridge is marked 60 [] 12 also etched in the metal. One of the ear
pads is marked handmade, a special estate consignment of Alpina

Classic
B&L Ray-Ban black Wayfarer sunglasses c 1980s are easy enough
to find but hard to find in good vintage condition. Ray-Ban Wayfarer
sunglasses were first introduced in 1952 when their design was a
revolutionary break from the metal eyewear of the past. Wayfarers
enjoyed early popularity in the 1950s and 1960s, especially after
they were worn by Audrey Hepburn in the 1961 movie Breakfast at
Tiffany's. A lucrative 1982 product placement deal that featured
Wayfarers in movies like those worn by John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd
in The Blues Brothers and TV shows such as Miami Vice brought the
Wayfarer to the height of their popularity. Actors such as Jack
Nicholson have also become synonomous with the cool Wayfarer look.
Today, Ray-Ban Wayfarers are cited as the best selling design of
sunglasses in history. They're great as men's or women's sunglasses,
measuring approximately 5.5" temple to temple with lens measuring
approximately 2.0" x 1.875" at the widest points and both
marked BL etched in the glass near the hinges. Both ear stems have
the Ray-Ban logo in raised metal on the outside, and the inside
of one stem is marked Wayfarer while the inside of the other stem
is marked B&L Ray-Ban USA. The inside of one ear pad is marked
L1724 PSAS. Don't be misled by more modern versions of Wayfarers
now produced by Luxottica not to mention the Asian reproductions
that have come on the market - these are the original and now legendary
vintage Wayfarer I sunglasses of movies and television fame.

a more rounded lens shape. These Revo 1110 010 sunglasses feature

increasing amounts of purple depending on the sunlight. The black

sunglasses for both men and women, measuring 5.0" temple to
temple with lens that measure approximately 1.5" x 1.75"
at the widest points - round but not perfectly round. The purple
lens are framed by a brushed antique gold metal used in the frame
and hinges, and the black ear stems are both marked Revo on the

Original
vintage 1980s Carrera Porsche Design 5623 sunglasses feature an
all gold plated frame with rare brown gradient and smoke gray lenses
with the brown gradient having photochromatic properties and shading
to clear the lower down the lens you look. That color combination
of interchangeable lenses with the gold Carrera 5623 frame makes
for one of the most eye catching looks of what is already a legendary
vintage sunglasses design. Both men and women today like the oversized
sunglasses look, and the Carrera 5623 sunglasses are slightly above
average in size but not to the point of looking absurd. The frame
measures approximately 5.5" temple to temple, and each teardrop
shaped Carrera Porsche Design lens measures approximately 2.75"
x 2.5" at the widest points. Each set of lenses is marked Porsche
Design on the lens along with the PD logo, and they are stored in
the felt pouch of the original black Carrera hard sided case. The
inside of one ear stem is marked Carrera Porsche Design , and the
other stem is marked with the serial number and Made in Austria
5623 40. The inside of one of the ear pads is also marked with a
serial number which we believe indicates a pair for U.S. export.

Totally
top of the line and over the top in design, Revo's elaborate take
on vintage aviator sunglasses is a smashing success. Rare vintage
Revo 990 010 sunglasses stand out in so many ways starting with
the silvery gunmetal frame intricately etched at the temples and
across the nose bridge. They are designed with 2 nose bridge bars
as is common in aviators, but Revo designed their top bar to be
extremely thin and arched upward much more than in comparable Ray-Ban
aviator sunglasses. The brushed antique gold of the metal frame
is really eye catching, drawing your eye in to notice the elaborate
etching in the metal. The Revo logo is on each ear stem near the
hinge points integrated with the temple etching, and the inside
of the ear stem is marked CE 990/010 Frame Japan. The celluloid
nose pads are also all original and marked Revo, and tortoise ear
pads are a nice final touch of design flair. Very hard to find and
a unique and eclectic interpretation of the classic aviator sunglasses
style.

M1 sunglasses are rare today, certain color combinations are more
sought after such as these white Alpina M1 sunglasses with gold
bands and rivets. Alpina sunglasses like their ski goggles are handmade
in Germany, and those marked W. Germany such as these date to the
years prior to the reunification of East and West Germany. You will
have seen many celebrities wearing vintage Alpina M1 sunglasses
including Victoria Beckham and rapper and music mogul Jay-Z. It's
a cool unisex style and size, with frame measuring approximately
5.375" temple to temple and teardrop shaped lens measuring
approximately 2.5" x 2.0" at the widest points. The inside
of the top frame has correct Alpina marks etched in the metal reading
Alpina M1 Made in W. Germany 2266260 and the lower bar of the nose
bridge is marked 60 [] 12 also etched in the metal. Direct to you
via a special estate consignment of Alpina vintage eyewear exclusive
to the Vintage Sunglasses Shop, these rare white Alpina M1 sunglasses
are priced nicely below market price for quick sale.
