The original Wayfarer from Ray-Ban 2140

The year has started with a boom for sunglasses. It is because the summer seems have come extra early - 2 months ahead of last year! So this means the celeb are out in force in their wayfarer sunglasses. But the real original wayfarer is the 2140 from Ray-Ban.

The 2140 is the original wayfarer from the 1960s and 1970s. You could buy into the new wayfarer or visit our pages of wayfarer sunglasses from all brands but unless you opt for the original frame then you are not truly 'owning a piece of history'.

The celebrity list is massive and our celebrity pages will show you just how many people are wearing them at the moment. We have even set-up a new forum so you can chat about your sunglasses style questions and find out what your favourite A Lister is wearing. The chances are though they are in 2140s and this year there are loads of exciting new and adventurous colours to choose from.
