Ray-Bans have three different fits: narrow, regular, and wide. The fit is based on the width of the lens and helps describe how much of the face is covered by the glasses or sunglasses.
Many oval and rectangular frames tend to have a more narrow fit. Classic clubmasters and wayfarers fall into the range of a regular or standard fit, and you’ll find a wider fit in many square models.
This is all generally speaking; you can find smaller- or larger-fitting frames in nearly every style offered by Ray-Ban.
Ray-Ban uses the term “frame size” to refer to the width of the frames from hinge to hinge. This is measured horizontally across the top of the frame in millimeters (mm) and inches (in). Ray-Ban sizes range from extra extra small (XXS) to extra extra large (XXL).
Listed below are the frame sizes and their corresponding measurements from hinge to hinge:
You can use the Ray-Ban size guide above to determine the size of your current glasses or sunglasses (assuming you like how they fit). Just use a ruler to measure the width from hinge to hinge, then refer to the chart for the corresponding letter size. This should make it much easier to determine your frame size when it’s time to order a new pair.
If you’re looking for the Ray-Ban aviator size chart, you can also use the guide above. These sizes and measurements apply to all Ray-Ban frame styles, including aviators, wayfarers, clubmasters, and more.
Some Ray-Bans are only available in one size, but many styles have multiple sizes to choose from. If the style you like has multiple size options, you’ll be able to select your preferred size on the product page as you prepare to order.
To find Ray-Ban sunglasses measurements for a particular style, the Ray-Ban site’s product page has the following information listed under the Product Dimensions heading:
To find the Ray-Ban sunglasses dimensions for frames you already own, check the inside of the temples. Frame measurements, along with the model code, frame color, and lens color, typically appear in a few groups of numbers and letters inside of one of the temples.
For example, you might see the following on the inner temple of your Ray-Ban sunglasses:
Here’s what those numbers mean:
If you see another number between 29 and 50 after these digits, it’s likely the lens height.
When shopping on FramesDirect, you’ll notice that each pair of glasses and sunglasses has one or more frame sizes listed on the product page beneath the style name and color options. When ordering new eyewear, you’ll need to select the appropriate frame size before you can proceed to the next step in the ordering process.
Ray-Ban sunglasses dimensions are listed on FramesDirect product pages in the following order:
Sometimes you’ll also see a “B-measurement,” which refers to the lens height. This is usually between 29 and 50 mm. If you’re ordering bifocal or progressive lenses, you need a lens height of at least 29 mm to fit their multiple focusing powers.
If you already have Ray-Bans or other glasses that fit comfortably, check for their measurements on the frames’ inner arms (temples) as described in the previous section. Look for these numbers on the Ray-Ban size chart (or the FramesDirect size guide) to find the corresponding size.
You can also measure the width between the hinges on your current glasses and compare it to the widths listed on the Ray-Ban size chart.
Your perfect size also depends on your preferred fit. You may want your eyewear to have full, standard, or minimal coverage. The wider the space is between the hinges, the more coverage and larger fit you’ll get from your glasses.
