Top 10 Sunglasses Brands
1. Ray-Ban
Ray-Ban has to be first on any list that talks about sunglasses. It has been in the business since the 1930s, when it first started making ‘Aviators’, which, till today, are its bestsellers. And probably a style that no other brand, however expensive, can replicate. It was started by Bausch & Lomb, who had to make glasses for the US Aviation Department to help the aircraft pilots protect their eyes from the sun. Then came the ‘Wayfarers,’ which was also a big hit. The best part is that they are unisexual. Ray-Ban has evolved into a giant, making sunglasses for men, women, and kids.

2. Oakley Women
A California based company that started as a manufacturer making sports and performance equipment including sunglasses, Oakley Women was considered a competitor to Ray-Ban even back then (even though both had their unique take). Oakley glasses are robust, durable, and perfect for outdoor activities, which is what garnered the brand’s popularity. It has hundreds of patents under its hood for its innovation in technology, materials, designs, etc. that go into the making of sunglasses. From sportswear and fashionable sunglasses to prescription sunglasses, Oakley products mean quality and style.

3. Persol
‘Persol’ literally translates to ‘for the sun’ in Italian. It is the oldest sunglasses manufacturing company in the world. It started off making sunglasses for aviation pilots and race car drivers, and then started branching out into prescription glasses, cosmetic sunglasses, etc. It was established as a luxury brand back in the day and remains the same to this day too.
