The Ray-Ban Wings RB3597 sunglasses feature an oversized shield lens that reimagines the classic aviator silhouette. The one-piece lens creates a clean, uninterrupted field of view with generous peripheral coverage.
Shield Aviator Design
The RB3597 uses a distinctive one-piece shield lens that delivers wide coverage and a bold profile. The full-rim metal frame is built from stainless steel for durability without excess weight. At 33mm lens height and 140mm temple length, the Wings offers substantial coverage that works well for oval, square, and heart-shaped faces. The oversized shield design provides protection from wind, glare, and UV rays—all lenses block 100% of UVA and UVB radiation. The Wings logo is etched on the lens.
Versatile and Prescription-Ready
Available in 12 color combinations ranging from classic gold with dark green lenses to gradient and mirror options, the Wings adapts to different styles. The frame accepts prescription lenses, so you can wear the Wings design with your exact vision correction.
The RB3597 works across contexts—from urban commutes to travel to outdoor activities where you need reliable sun protection and wide coverage. The metal construction keeps the sunglasses light enough for all-day wear, while the shield lens delivers the kind of coverage that outdoor enthusiasts and drivers appreciate.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get prescription lenses in the Ray-Ban Wings 3597?
Yes, the Ray-Ban Wings RB3597 is prescription-ready. You can order these sunglasses with single vision or progressive prescription lenses to match your vision needs. The shield lens design accommodates most prescription ranges, and you can choose from various lens materials and treatments including polarized options for enhanced glare reduction.
What face shapes work best with Ray-Ban Wings sunglasses?
The Ray-Ban Wings RB3597 works particularly well for oval, square, and heart-shaped faces. The oversized shield design and wider frame help balance facial proportions. For square faces, the rounded shield lens softens angular features. For oval faces, the generous width complements naturally balanced proportions. The 33mm lens height and 140mm temple length provide substantial coverage without overwhelming most face shapes.
Do Ray-Ban Wings 3597 sunglasses provide UV protection?
Yes, all Ray-Ban Wings RB3597 sunglasses provide 100% UV protection, blocking both UVA and UVB rays. The lenses are designed to provide UV400 protection, which is essential for long-term eye health during outdoor activities, driving, and extended sun exposure. This protection is built into all lens colors and treatments, including gradient and mirror options.
What makes the Wings different from classic Ray-Ban Aviators?
The Wings RB3597 features an oversized one-piece shield lens instead of the traditional teardrop-shaped double lenses found on classic Aviators. The Wings also has flat temples and a flat bridge (versus the curved design of standard Aviators), plus a one-piece nose pad. Originally designed in the 1980s for pilots seeking wider peripheral vision, the Wings offers more coverage and a bolder, more contemporary look compared to the RB3025 Aviator.
Are the Ray-Ban Wings 3597 suitable for active wear?
Yes, the Wings RB3597 works well for active outdoor use. The oversized shield lens provides excellent coverage from wind, glare, and sun from multiple angles. The lightweight stainless steel metal frame ensures all-day comfort, and the one-piece nose pad offers a secure fit during movement. The flat temples sit comfortably and the frame's original design for pilots means it was built with performance and wide-angle vision in mind.
How many color options are available for the Wings 3597?
The Ray-Ban Wings RB3597 is available in 12 different color combinations. Options include classic pairings like gold frames with dark green lenses, black with grey gradient, and gunmetal with brown gradient, as well as more distinctive choices featuring mirror and gradient lenses in colors like orange mirror silver, pink, dark violet mirror silver, and blue. This variety lets you choose a look that matches your personal style while maintaining the Wings' signature shield design.

Ray-Ban Wings 3597 vs. Classic Aviators: Which Should You Choose?
If you're drawn to the Ray-Ban Wings RB3597, you're likely weighing it against other aviator-inspired designs in the Ray-Ban lineup. The Wings occupies a unique space—bolder than the classic Aviator, more coverage-focused than contemporary rimless designs, and rooted in 1980s pilot heritage. Here's how it stacks up against three strong alternatives.
Wings 3597 vs. Aviator Large Metal RB3025
The RB3025 Aviator Large Metal is the original that started it all in 1937. It features the iconic teardrop double-lens design that's universally recognized. If you want a more traditional, versatile look that works in formal and casual settings alike, the RB3025 is hard to beat. It's available in three lens sizes (55mm, 58mm, 62mm) and starts at a slightly lower price.
The Wings RB3597, by contrast, makes a bigger statement. Its oversized one-piece shield lens delivers more coverage from wind, glare, and peripheral sun exposure—exactly what it was designed for when it debuted in the 1980s. The flat temples and bridge give it a more contemporary, architectural look. Choose the Wings if you want maximum coverage, bold 80s-inspired style, and a frame that stands out. Choose the classic Aviator if you prefer timeless versatility and a more understated profile.
Wings 3597 vs. Blaze Aviator RB3584N
The Blaze Aviator RB3584N is another modern evolution of the aviator, featuring flat mirrored lenses in a rimless design. It's sleek, minimalist, and lighter than the Wings. If you're after a futuristic, barely-there look with mirrored lenses, the Blaze delivers.
But the Wings offers more. The full-rim metal frame is more durable, the shield lens provides better wind and glare protection, and the Wings logo etched on the lens adds a heritage detail the Blaze lacks. The Wings also has more presence—it's a statement piece rooted in pilot history, while the Blaze leans minimalist and fashion-forward. If you need serious coverage and want a frame with 1980s pilot DNA, the Wings is the stronger choice.
Wings 3597 vs. Outdoorsman II RB3029
The Outdoorsman II RB3029 shares the Wings' focus on outdoor performance. It features a double bridge, sweat bar, and traditional bent temple tips designed for active use. It's a classic choice for hunters, shooters, and outdoor enthusiasts who want a vintage-inspired aviator with functional details.
The Wings takes a different approach. Instead of the Outdoorsman's vintage sweat bar and cable temples, the Wings uses flat temples and a one-piece shield lens for a more modern, streamlined look. The Wings offers more lens coverage and a bolder aesthetic that works in urban and outdoor settings alike. If you want a frame that bridges retro pilot heritage with contemporary style—and you prioritize maximum coverage over vintage outdoor details—the Wings is the better fit.
Our Recommendation
The Ray-Ban Wings RB3597 is the right choice if you want an oversized shield aviator with serious coverage, 1980s pilot heritage, and a look that makes a statement without being over the top. It's bolder than the classic RB3025, more substantial than the Blaze, and more contemporary than the Outdoorsman. If you have an oval, square, or heart-shaped face and you're looking for a frame that delivers both style and function, the Wings hits the mark.
