Why We Love This Deal
The big deal at Nordstrom Rack lately has been its large selection of Ray-Ban sunglasses on sale. From the versatile Wayfarer to smart-looking Clubmaster, we’re seeing deals starting at nearly 40% off. But, for select styles such as this all-time-favorite classic, the discounts are rising to over 50% off.
The Ray-Ban 59mm Polarized Aviator Sunglasses are now just $90, an incredible deal for the military-inspired classic style that gave birth to the Ray-Ban legacy. From Top Gun to actual fighter pilots (and General MacArthur himself), Aviators have been a staple in cool men’s accessory collections for nearly 100 years. Though the 59mm are the most popular, the 58mm, 60mm, 63mm, and 64mm are also on sale at this time.

What Shoppers Should Know
- Sizing: 59mm lens width; 15mm bridge width; 135mm temple length
- Color Options: Black or gunmetal
- UV Protection: 100%
- Best Use Case: This is the go-to eye protection for the man who wants to look classically cool.
Though the aviator shape was originally designed to fit comfortably behind a fighter pilot’s face gear, the style (and shine) of aviators has taken on a life of its own. Though Tom Cruise perhaps made them most visible and emblematic of the suave action star, we’ve seen them on all types of men. Michael J. Fox as Marty McFly in Back to the Future and Freddie Mercury alike excellently sported a pair.
This version is made to protect your eyes with 100% UV protection via its polarized polycarbonate lenses. The glasses are durably built, and the lenses are housed in a metal frame.

One shopper said they are “super lightweight and they make me look 20 pounds lighter.”
Another pointed out the overall quality of the build. “What I really like is the flexibility of the ‘arms’ as they are not rigid and stiff.”
The Ray-Ban 59mm Polarized Aviator Sunglasses are down to $90 while this deal lasts.
