Original Wayfarer vs Warren
Original Wayfarer RB2140 and Warren RB4396 both use 54mm lenses in these variants, but they are not the same fit. Wayfarer is 54–18–150 with classic acetate geometry and confirmed polarised lenses; Warren is 54–20–145 with a cleaner rectangular front.
Aviator vs Jack
Aviator RB3025 uses larger 58mm pilot lenses, a narrow 14mm bridge and 135mm temples. Jack RB3565 is 53–20–145 with a softer oval front. Choose Aviator for classic pilot proportions; choose Jack when a smaller front and wider bridge suit your reference pair better.
Clubmaster — small lens does not equal smallest overall fit
Clubmaster RB3016 is 49–21–140. It has the smallest lens width here, but its 21mm bridge and strong browline mean you should compare all three measurements rather than assuming “49mm” tells the whole fit story.
Which exact variants are polarised?
The RB2140 901/58 and RB3721CH 9144A1 are explicitly identified as polarised in the exact product records. The Aviator, Clubmaster, Warren and Jack variants reviewed here are not labelled polarised in those exact records.

How to choose Ray-Ban size online
- Use a comfortable pair you already own as the reference.
- Compare lens width, bridge and temple length together.
- Compare material and shape as well as measurements.
- Check the exact model/colour code because lens specifications can change within a family.
- Confirm live stock before travelling to view a specific variant.
Our Sunglasses for Your Face Shape & Fit guide adds proportion advice, but actual measurements are more reliable than rigid face-shape rules.
Frequently asked questions
Are all Ray-Ban sunglasses polarised?
No. Polarisation is specific to the exact lens option.
Is Wayfarer the same fit as Aviator?
No. Their materials, bridge designs, lens shapes and measurements differ substantially.
How do I know my Ray-Ban size?
Compare the three-number measurements with a pair you already wear comfortably; do not use lens width alone.
