DESCRIPTION RATINGS & REVIEWS PRESCRIPTION GUIDE

The Ray-Ban Chris RB4187 sunglasses bring a modern square silhouette to Ray-Ban's Highstreet collection. These unisex frames feature a 54mm lens width, 18mm bridge, and 145mm temples—proportions that work well for medium face shapes, particularly oval and round faces looking for balanced coverage.

The frame construction combines injected acetate fronts (available in matte rubber black, classic havana tortoise, and transparent color options) with slim metal temples that keep the overall weight down. You'll find the Ray-Ban logo etched on the right lens and embossed on the temples. The full-rim design houses a saddle bridge and integrated nose pads for a secure, comfortable fit, while flex hinges add durability for daily wear.

Lens options span gradient, solid, polarized, and mirror finishes. Polarized variants eliminate glare from reflective surfaces like water and pavement—helpful for driving or outdoor activities. All lenses provide 100% UV protection. The Chris is prescription-ready; you can fit single-vision, progressive, or blue-light lenses through most optical retailers.

The Chris sits between the round Erika RB4171 and the larger Justin RB4165 in Ray-Ban's lineup. It shares the Justin's square shape but typically features the rubberized matte finishes that give it a slightly more refined, less sporty look. The 54mm lens width offers solid coverage without the oversized feel of some contemporary styles.

Horrible

I never received the sunglasses. And no one would answer the phone when I called. I also emailed with no help. I disputed this charge on my credit card.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Ray-Ban Chris 4187 sunglasses prescription-ready?

Yes, the Ray-Ban Chris RB4187 frames are prescription-ready and compatible with single-vision, progressive, and bifocal lenses. The full-rim design and 54mm lens width accommodate most prescription types. You can order prescription lenses directly from Designer Optics or take the frames to your local optician.

What face shapes do Ray-Ban Chris sunglasses fit best?

The Ray-Ban Chris RB4187 works best for oval and round face shapes. The square frame shape adds definition to softer facial features. With a 54mm lens width and 18mm bridge, these are sized for medium faces. The saddle bridge and adjustable nose pads help customize the fit.

What's the difference between Ray-Ban Chris and Ray-Ban Erika?

The Chris RB4187 has a square frame shape, while the Erika RB4171 is round. Both share similar construction with metal temples and rubberized finishes, but the Chris offers a more angular, masculine look compared to the Erika's softer, oversized round silhouette. Both are unisex and prescription-ready.

Are polarized lenses available for the Ray-Ban Chris 4187?

Yes, several Ray-Ban Chris RB4187 variants come with polarized lenses, including grey gradient polarized, brown gradient polarized, and dark grey polarized options. Polarized lenses eliminate glare from reflective surfaces like water, snow, and pavement, making them ideal for driving and outdoor activities.

What are the measurements of Ray-Ban Chris RB4187 sunglasses?

The Ray-Ban Chris RB4187 measures 54mm lens width, 18mm bridge width, and 145mm temple length (54-18-145). The lens height is approximately 44mm with a total frame width suitable for medium-sized faces. These measurements make the Chris slightly smaller than the Justin RB4165 but larger than classic Wayfarers.

Do Ray-Ban Chris sunglasses have UV protection?

Yes, all Ray-Ban Chris RB4187 sunglasses provide 100% UVA and UVB protection. The lenses block harmful ultraviolet rays to protect your eyes from sun damage. This UV protection is built into the lens material itself, not just a coating, ensuring long-lasting eye safety.

Ray-Ban Chris 4187 vs. Similar Styles

The Ray-Ban Chris RB4187 occupies a sweet spot in Ray-Ban's square frame lineup, but how does it compare to similar models in our collection?

Chris vs. Justin: Square Frame Showdown

The Ray-Ban Justin RB4165 is the Chris's closest sibling. Both feature square frames with rubberized finishes and metal temples, but the Justin runs slightly larger with a 55mm lens width compared to the Chris's 54mm. The Justin leans more casual and sporty, while the Chris offers a slightly more refined look. If you have a larger face or want maximum coverage, the Justin is your pick. For a more balanced, versatile fit, the Chris delivers.

Chris vs. Erika: Square Meets Round

The Ray-Ban Erika RB4171 shares the Chris's construction DNA—metal temples, rubberized finishes, lightweight feel—but swaps the square shape for an oversized round silhouette. The Erika tends to suit those seeking a softer, more feminine aesthetic, while the Chris's angular lines add structure and definition. Both work well for oval and round faces, but the Chris adds more angularity where the Erika softens.

Chris vs. New Wayfarer: Modern vs. Classic

The Ray-Ban New Wayfarer RB2132 is the classic that inspired the Chris. The New Wayfarer features thicker, all-acetate construction for a bolder, more traditional look, while the Chris uses slimmer metal temples and rubberized finishes for a contemporary update. The New Wayfarer is available in more size options (52mm, 55mm, 58mm), but it's heavier. Choose the New Wayfarer for iconic heritage styling; choose the Chris for a lighter, more modern take on the square frame.

Bottom line: The Ray-Ban Chris RB4187 is ideal if you want a square frame that's lighter than the New Wayfarer, more refined than the Justin, and more structured than the Erika. It's a versatile, everyday frame that bridges classic and contemporary styling.
