Not many people are aware that Ray-Ban has been one of the most popular prescription sunglasses to wear over the past decades among celebrities and pop-culture alike, whether it be while people were in movies or off the big screen just running errands.
The fifties were when the company really started to gain recognition through the pop-culture in America. Marilyn Monroe and Kim Novak wore Wayfarers constantly, and soon after James Dean, Bob Dylan and John F. Kennedy were seen wearing the same model of shades.
Ray-Ban has had many campaign's throughout the years that help encourage their customers in the most positive ways possible. Their March 2007 campaign, "Never Hide" was a YouTube series advocating customers to "Never pretend. Never be afraid. Never give up. Never hide." A company that strives to have positive impacts on people around the world, along with creating stunning sunglasses through the past century, is definitely one worth staying by.
