Are the lenses polarized?

The listed specs give UV protection but not polarization. Treat them as tinted UV lenses, not glare-cutting polarized ones.

What face shapes suit the Ricky II?

The rounded-rectangle front and keyhole bridge flatter oval and square faces best. Very narrow faces may find the frame wide.

Is the frame real acetate?

Yes, the frame is acetate, a plant-based plastic that can be adjusted with heat by an optician and holds its shape better than basic injection plastic.

How dark are the brown lenses?

They are a medium brown tint. They handle everyday sun well but are lighter than gray or green lenses for beach or high-glare driving.

Can prescription lenses be fitted?

Many opticians can reglaze acetate frames like these, but check with your optician first, since the lens shape and frame depth limit what fits.

What comes in the box?

Expect the sunglasses and a Ralph Lauren case or pouch. Confirm the case with the seller if it matters to you.

About the Ralph Lauren RL8212 The Ricky II Sunglasses

The RL8212 Ricky II is a women's full-frame sunglass in speckled brown acetate with brown lenses and UV protection. It leans on Ralph Lauren's preppy, equestrian look: a rounded-rectangle shape with a keyhole bridge and the small metal pony logo at the temple. It suits shoppers who want a classic, versatile frame that works with both casual and tailored outfits. Against plain acetate frames from mainstream eyewear brands, it trades a little subtlety for the brand's recognizable detailing; the brown-on-brown tint is easy on the eyes but not as dark as gray or green lenses for harsh glare.

Best forShoppers who want a classic preppy lookEveryday wear in town and on the roadWomen who prefer warm brown tones over blackBuyers loyal to the Ralph Lauren brand
