Ray-Ban RB3561 General Sunglasses 57 mm Bronze and Copper Frame

Ray-Ban the General is the ultimate celebration of the iconoclastic spirit of Ray-Ban. The bold and unmistakable design was originally created back in 1987 as a tribute to the pioneering spirit of General Douglas Macarthur. Today’s design is slightly reinterpreted, staying true to the Aviator spirit yet with more squared lenses and a bold upper bar. Ray-Ban the General exhibits a durable and tough look and is perfectly fitted.

Design

Lightweight and durable, the metal bronze and copper frame and the gray gradient lenses of the Ray-Ban RB3561 Sunglasses are sure to get second glances. Not only will these shades hold up to everyday wear, they also offer a comfortable fit.

Ray-Ban metal frames have adjustable nose pads. If sunglasses tend to slide down your nose, sit too low on your face, touch at your temples or cheeks, or feel narrow at the sides of your head, you can adjust the nose pads yourself to make the frame fit perfectly.

Lens Technology

Gradient lenses follow the latest style trends in terms of shades and provide a wide range of colors creating exciting and unique looks. Gradient lenses are characterized by a smooth transition from a solid color to a transparent shade of the same color.

Clarity and Protection

The lenses are shaped by diamond tools to achieve no distortion. This is done in order to achieve the greatest precision in the lens. Every single lens blocks 100% of the UVA and UVB harmful blue lights. UVA and UVB blue lights are no joking matter, so Ray-Ban worked extra hard on making sure the harmful rays do not penetrate the lens.

Durability Performance Test

No lens is shatterproof or unbreakable but Ray-Ban lenses are pretty close.

Impact resistance:

The lenses are 2x more resistant to impacts than common lenses. The Drop Ball Test was performed on the lenses where a steel ball is dropped on the lens from a height of 1.27m. After the chemical hardening, the impact resistance of Ray-ban glass is more than doubled.

Scratch Resistance:

The lenses are 12x more resistant to scratches than common lenses. This was proven with the Bayer Test. The Bayer Test took the lenses and placed them into an iron box, the lenses were submitted to 500g of a special abrasive sand oscillating for 600 cycles. Compared to the most commonly prescribed lenses (CR-39), they are 12 times more resistant, thus exceeding by far the international standards.

Weather Proof:

Resistant to UV light moisture, heat, organic solvents, sea salt, and sweat acidity; the lenses underwent the Quv Panel Test which confirmed all this. The Ray-Ban lens was exposed to consecutive cycles of UV light and moisture. The result after 120 hours of intense testing: no visible change in the color and no surface damages on the lens (crack, stripes… etc).
