What the New Wayfarer did for the classic Wayfarer, the Ray-Ban Carvan does for the classic Aviator. Or more accurately, has been doing for the aviator off and on since the late 50s.
Like a suit, you want to wear the sunglasses. You don’t want the sunglasses to be wearing you. And that’s tough to do with a traditional pair of droopy, portly aviators. Sure they look great on some guys, but for many of us, they look awkwardly ginormous.
The Ray-Ban Caravan’s shape chops the lens sag at the bottom and thus, makes them proportional for most faces. They’re a little more angled, and that’s a huge improvement.
Cheaper and somewhat similar options include The AO Original Pilot, and The Lands’ End Canvas Square Aviator.
Or… if you just won the lottery, there’s the completely over the top expensive Ray-Ban Ultra Caravan. The frames are 18k gold plated titanium, come with polarized lenses, and tortoise shell patterned ear pieces. For $480.
