Are the Ray-Ban Drifter lenses polarized?

No. They are crystal gradient lenses with 100% UV protection but no polarization, so glare off water and roads is not filtered.

Will these fit a wide face?

Yes. The 57 mm lens, 162 mm frame width and high bridge fit are sized for wide faces. They will feel loose on narrow faces.

Can I wear them for driving?

The category 3 dark tint works in bright daylight, but the gradient and lack of polarization make them a weaker choice for glare-heavy highway driving.

Ray-Ban typically ships these with a case and cleaning cloth. Check the listing for the exact included accessories.

How do the Drifter compare with Ray-Ban's polarized styles?

The Drifter uses crystal gradient lenses without polarization, so it does not cut glare the way Ray-Ban's polarized models do. It favors a lighter, classic look over glare control.
