Ray-Ban Active Lifestyle: faster, higher, stronger

Sunglasses have long been used not just for their intended purpose. Since the invention of Ray-Ban Aviators, which were designed to protect pilots' eyes, much has changed: increasingly, sunglasses have become a fashion accessory that complements or dictates the wearer’s style.

Ray-Ban Active Lifestyle, on the other hand, were created for those who value simplicity combined with practicality and maximum functionality.

More than just a collection

It should be said that Ray-Ban Active Lifestyle is not just a collection, but a whole family: with different shapes, colors, and materials, all representatives of this “superclass” are united by a common, visually recognizable idea.

That idea is their purpose, as these sunglasses are specifically designed for lovers of an active lifestyle: from a busy, multi-tasking day to morning runs and mountain climbing!



Interestingly, the "active" collection was initially created for men, characterized by sharp angles, masculine shape, and minimalist frames. Eventually, the line transformed into unisex, adopting a softer look with variations in color and shape.

Legendary simplicity

All the sunglasses in this collection are dedicated to fast, lively, and energetic activities. That’s why Ray-Ban designers made them simple and, at the same time, utilitarian. The focus here is on ergonomics: the frame doesn’t press on the bridge of the nose, but sits snugly on the face, without even thinking of slipping off!



As for production, the family of collections includes frames made of both metal and plastic. The lenses in this line are rarely made of mineral glass; more often, they are polycarbonate.

This is not surprising, as this material, in addition to being easy to color and mold (= more colorful lenses of various shapes), boasts valuable characteristics such as high impact resistance (200 times greater than mineral glass), heat resistance, deformability (no shards with strong impacts), and lightness.



Today, Ray-Ban Active Lifestyle features teardrop, rectangular, and streamlined shapes, as well as tortoiseshell, blue, black, burgundy, and gold colors. It’s safe to say that thanks to this evolution and, as a result, variety, the line has comfortably settled on the edge of sporty and casual styles. Fashion critics even predict incredible popularity for these models in the modern fashion industry.

So, if your life fits the principle of “faster, higher, stronger” and you value practicality in your look, so as not to be distracted from life’s incredible twists and turns, then Ray-Ban Active Lifestyle was designed just for you!
