I found these Ray Ban sunglasses and it is difficult to find info

Would be very hard to know the exact variation and vintage without referring to the frame markings. Wayfarers have been in existence since the 50s and that leather cover is unlike anything I've ever seen

Edit: tried looking up by the case design and stumbled across something similar dated 1988. Guess these would be the same vintage.

I worked at B&L in the late 80’s, when they still owned Ray-Ban, and I recall seeing those Wayfarer cases back then. If I had to guess, I’d say it’s the model that came out mid-80’s after Tom Cruise wore them in Risky Business.

Interesting! Thank you
I’ll be wearing a piece of history, haha
