Ray-Ban Balorama: Coherence in Action
You wake up in the morning thinking about how to save the world, or at least how to fit a hundred tasks into 24 hours. You are a fan of classic, elegant, yet simple and comfortable things. This is an active life position and commitment to high goals.
Yes, it’s your portrait embodied in Ray-Ban Balorama.
“Dirty” History
1968 — the year this collection was born (many sources mistakenly cite 1967, but we trust Ray-Ban more).
A plastic frame, dark lenses, nothing excessive — these glasses became a hit after the release of the 1971 movie “Dirty Harry,” where Clint Eastwood, as a genius detective, wears Balorama while hunting a maniac. The release of the second movie, "Magnum Force," only boosted interest in this model.
Later, many stars from different areas of showbiz were seen wearing these sunglasses. For example, Dexter Holland, the vocalist of the Californian rock band The Offspring, often performed and appeared in music videos and photo shoots in Balorama.
The pinnacle of popularity, in our opinion, came when Josh Brolin, the MAN IN BLACK, wore Ray-Ban Balorama in the third installment of the movie. That was 2012.
In Essence
What’s special about this model? The sleek, snug fit, slightly reminiscent of Ray-Ban Wayfarer. A clear brow line with a deep V-shaped center. Slightly pointed corners, recalling previous classics. All this makes Balorama action-packed and sexy sunglasses.
The narrow lenses seem to reach toward the temples, blending seamlessly with the "brow line," giving a smooth, streamlined feel. The propionate plastic frame envelops the lens, ensuring comfortable wear. The double rivets on the frame provide the finishing touch to its classic style.
This structure ensures maximum protection from sunlight and UV radiation. The unique shape of the lenses allows for an expanded field of view, making it convenient whether you’re saving the world from aliens or yourself from the boss's anger!
In any case, Ray-Ban Balorama — are sunglasses for someone with coherent actions and bold moves. And that means they’re waiting for you!
