Be sure to take the time to just chill sometimes.

Ravenous

You know you could get a sunburn on your eyes out in the water? It doesn’t feel good. Ra Ravenous sunglasses have UV protection. We wear them here in the bright Hawaiian sun and love em. We make it easy for anyone to get a pair. Shipping is always free, the pricing is crazy good, and we have an awesome return policy.

Goggle lenses now available

RaOptics.com is now selling replacement lenses for all its goggle lines. The Panorama, Big D’s, and Performance Lines all have interchangeable lenses, which means no matter what line you have, or what lens you would like to order, it will fit onto your goggles.

What we hear from other customers, is that the blue lens is the best performer in low light conditions, the smoke is the best performer in the high light conditions, and of course the fire red then is the best all around- or most universal.

Just like with all Ra products, shipping is free, and your order will have a generous return policy.

Ravenous Update

Ra Ravenous Black Frame Gold Lenses Sunglasses

We’ve gone back to the factory for some improvements and to modify the designs a bit. We’ve decided to move the logo the inside of the arm, which looks a lot better. This does mean that the sunglasses will be ready to ship in mid-April instead of March, but we believe it will be worth the wait. You can see the new look on the Ra store page now.

We have A Winner!

First off, we’d like to say that we’ve listened to the comments on our previous post about the sticker designs. We’ve also checked our logs for signs of bot-generated votes and found that things were getting a bit out of hand in that department. So much for technology sometimes.

With all that out of the way, we’d like to say CONGRATULATIONS to….

#3 design by Jared – “CONQUER”

We’d like to thank the participants for submitting their designs and everyone for taking the time to express their opinions (both supportive and critical) and for voting (bots excluded, of course). You guys spoke, and we listened.
