The story

Why we picked it
I was drawn to this piece for the restraint of its design - the oval wrap silhouette sits in that precise Ralph Lauren register where sportswear precision meets refined dressing. The stamped model number on the temple is exactly the kind of factory detail that confirms you are working with a considered original rather than a later reissue. The brown tortoise acetate reads warmly against virtually any palette, which is a rarer quality than it sounds in a full-rim frame.

These vintage Ralph Lauren sunglasses bring a classic tortoise shell pattern to an oval wrap silhouette, offering a timeless brown tone that suits everyday wear across all seasons. The full rim frame gives the sunglasses a considered, structured shape that reads as elegant rather than trend-driven.

Constructed from a blend of acetate, plastic, and lucite, the frame is both hypoallergenic and nickel free, making it comfortable for extended wear. Model number 959 S 086 50 17 135 is stamped into the temple, confirming authenticity alongside precise factory specifications. The wrap style offers a close, secure fit that suits both casual and dressier outfits alike.

Lens socket width measures 50mm, bridge width 17mm, and temple length 135mm.
