Is the RL8220 Juliette polarized?

No. The lenses are grey gradient polyamide with UV protection, but they are not polarized, so they won't remove glare from water or pavement.

How dark are the lenses?

They are category 2, a medium tint. That works for overcast days, driving and city wear, but it is light for beach or high-altitude sun.

What size is the frame?

The lens is 54 mm wide and 50 mm high, the bridge is 17 mm and the temples are 145 mm. That is a standard adult fit in a full-rim butterfly shape.

What comes in the box?

Ralph Lauren typically ships these with a case and cleaning cloth. Confirm the included accessories with the store before ordering.

Can I swap the lenses?

No. The lenses are not interchangeable, so a prescription or tint change means going to an optician.

Is the Juliette worth it against other designer butterfly frames?

It stands on its acetate build and classic butterfly shape. Rivals that offer polarized lenses give better glare control, so pick the Juliette for style and UV coverage rather than for glare.

About the Ralph Lauren RL8220 The Juliette Sunglasses

The RL8220 Juliette is a full-rim butterfly frame in glossy acetate with grey gradient polyamide lenses. It offers UV protection but is not polarized, and the medium category 2 tint suits bright-to-moderate daylight rather than full sun glare. It competes with other designer butterfly frames on shape and acetate build rather than on lens technology.
