The Ray-Ban Wayfarer 4340 sunglasses bring the iconic Wayfarer look into a new era of comfort. This is the Wayfarer Ease—a modern take on the classic square frame that's been turning heads since the 1950s, now refined for all-day wearability.
The No-Tilt Wayfarer Design
What sets the RB4340 apart from the original Wayfarer 2140 is the elimination of the pantoscopic tilt—that forward angle at the top of the frame. The result is a flatter profile that sits more naturally on your face and provides better sun coverage from above. If you've always loved the Wayfarer shape but found the aggressive tilt uncomfortable or awkward, the 4340 solves that problem. The frame features a 50mm lens width, 22mm bridge, and longer 150mm temples (compared to 135mm on the 2140), creating a secure fit that works especially well for small to medium faces.
Built from lightweight acetate with a smooth, rubberized finish, these frames feel solid without weighing you down. The full-rim square shape maintains that unmistakable Wayfarer DNA—bold, confident, and effortlessly cool. Available in 13 color combinations including classic black with green lenses, havana tortoise, and eye-catching mirror finishes, there's a version to match your style.
Prescription-Ready & UV Protection
The RB4340 is prescription-ready, so you can add your Rx and turn these into your everyday sunglasses or optical frames. Standard lenses offer 100% UVA and UVB protection, and polarized options are available to cut glare on water, pavement, and snow. Whether you're driving, at the beach, or just running errands, your eyes stay protected and comfortable.
"These fit perfectly and the lenses on this particular one are soothing to look through." — Zappos customer review
The Wayfarer 4340 delivers the heritage and style Ray-Ban is known for, with a fit that's easier to wear for hours. It's a smart choice if you want that classic look without compromise.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the Ray-Ban 4340 and the 2132 New Wayfarer?
The RB4340 Wayfarer Ease eliminates the pantoscopic tilt (forward angle) found on the 2132 and original 2140 models, resulting in a flatter, more comfortable fit. The 4340 also has longer temples (150mm vs 135mm) and a slightly more square lens shape. The 2132 retains the classic tilted profile, while the 4340 offers improved sun coverage and comfort for extended wear.
Are Ray-Ban 4340 sunglasses prescription-ready?
Yes, the Ray-Ban Wayfarer 4340 frames are fully prescription-ready and can accommodate single-vision, progressive, and polarized prescription lenses. The acetate frame construction and 50mm lens size provide ample space for most prescriptions. You can order them with your Rx through optical retailers or have lenses fitted by your optician.
What size face do Ray-Ban 4340 sunglasses fit best?
The RB4340 is available only in a 50mm lens width and is designed as a one-size-fits-most frame, but it tends to fit best on small to medium faces. With a 22mm bridge and 150mm temples, the frame provides a secure, comfortable fit without sliding down. If you have a narrow face and found the original Wayfarers too large, the 4340 is an excellent alternative.
Do Ray-Ban 4340 sunglasses come with UV protection?
Yes, all Ray-Ban 4340 Wayfarer Ease sunglasses provide 100% UVA and UVB protection to shield your eyes from harmful ultraviolet rays. Polarized versions are also available, which add glare reduction for improved visual clarity and comfort in bright conditions, especially near water or while driving.
Are the lenses from the 2140 interchangeable with the 4340 frame?
No, lenses from the Ray-Ban 2140 are not interchangeable with the 4340 frame. The lenses are cut at different angles due to the elimination of the pantoscopic tilt in the 4340 design. However, you can order replacement temples from the 4340 to retrofit onto a 2140 frame if you want the no-tilt look while keeping your existing lenses.
What material are Ray-Ban 4340 frames made from?
The Ray-Ban 4340 Wayfarer Ease frames are made from lightweight acetate (also called propionate) with a smooth, rubberized finish. This durable, bio-based material provides flexibility and comfort while maintaining the classic Wayfarer shape. The temples are 150mm long and feature the signature Ray-Ban logo.

Ray-Ban Wayfarer 4340 vs New Wayfarer 2132: Tilt or No Tilt?
Choosing between the Ray-Ban Wayfarer 4340 and the New Wayfarer 2132 comes down to one key question: do you want the classic tilted Wayfarer profile, or a flatter, more comfortable fit?
The RB2132 New Wayfarer keeps the pantoscopic tilt—that forward angle at the top of the frame—that's been part of the Wayfarer DNA since the 1950s. It's the look most people picture when they think "Wayfarer," and it delivers that bold, iconic style. The 2132 also comes in three sizes (52mm, 55mm, 58mm), so you have more fit options. However, that tilt can be uncomfortable during long wear, and it reduces sun coverage from above.
The RB4340 Wayfarer Ease eliminates the tilt entirely, creating a flatter profile that sits more naturally on your face. The result is better comfort, improved sun protection, and longer temples (150mm vs 135mm) for a more secure fit. It's only available in 50mm, which works best for small to medium faces. If you've tried the 2132 or 2140 and found the tilt awkward or uncomfortable, the 4340 solves that problem without sacrificing the Wayfarer shape.
Ray-Ban 4340 vs Original Wayfarer 2140F: Modern Comfort or Vintage Heritage?
The RB2140F is the original—the frame that launched the Wayfarer legend in 1952. It has the most pronounced tilt of any Wayfarer model, creating that unmistakable vintage profile. If authenticity and heritage matter to you, the 2140F is the real deal. But it's also heavier, bulkier, and the aggressive tilt can feel uncomfortable or look exaggerated on some faces.
The RB4340 takes the Wayfarer into the modern era with a focus on wearability. The no-tilt design, lightweight acetate, and longer temples make it easier to wear all day. You still get the square Wayfarer shape and Ray-Ban quality, just with a fit that's more forgiving and practical for everyday use.
Our take: If you want the classic Wayfarer look and don't mind the tilt, go with the 2132 or 2140F. If comfort and all-day wearability are your priority—or if you have a smaller face—the 4340 Wayfarer Ease is the smarter choice. Both are iconic; it's just a matter of fit and feel.
