Ray-Ban B&L Drifter Tortoise Flat-Top Sunglasses France

Condition

Deadstock / Unworn. Never worn, and presented exactly as it left the maker, with its original Bausch & Lomb lenses.

Frame Details

The Drifter is one of the boldest B&L-era Ray-Ban shapes: a flat-top square front in thick acetate with a substantial center bridge and strong, angular lines. This pair is cut in a warm striated tortoise that shifts from amber to deep brown. The broad temples carry the silver inset detail of early Wayfarer styles. Frame made in France.

Why We Love Them | Era & Relevance

Vintage. The Drifter comes from Ray-Ban's Bausch & Lomb years, a larger, more assertive relative of the Wayfarer with a flat brow and a heavy center bridge. This pair was made in France for B&L's European production, and it still has its original BL-etched lenses. In warm tortoise, it is a strong example of B&L-era design.
