help RAEN Benson FAQ
Where is the RAEN eyewear brand from?
RAEN is an independent eyewear brand founded in Oceanside, California, in 2009. The Benson is one of its classic handcrafted acetate designs in the California-vintage mold.
What does the keyhole bridge on the RAEN Benson do?
The keyhole bridge sits higher on the nose and spreads the frame's weight across a wider area, so it holds its position without adjustable nose pads. It is a good option for people who find pad arms uncomfortable.
Is the RAEN Benson unisex?
Its aviator-inspired outline with subtly rounded lenses is a classic shape that reads unisex on most faces. Sizing is best for small-to-medium faces given the frame's proportions.
How does RAEN differ from Ray-Ban as a brand?
RAEN is a small, family-founded independent label based in California, whereas Ray-Ban has been owned by the eyewear giant Luxottica since 1999. With RAEN you generally get handcrafted acetate construction and smaller-batch production at a comparable price point.
