I've been hunting for a pair of gold aviators that have polarized lenses that have a little more style than traditional aviator ray bans.  I tried these on in several stores and fell in love with them.  The are classy and sporty and the gold tones look great with blonde hair.  This style was polarized in every store, however this pair I purchased are not polarized.  I'm keeping them because I realized this only after had thrown out all the packaging.  I read the informational insert identifying the lens codes printed on the inside temple of the frame of the glasses and confirmed that this style has a basic lens.  They still look great and in the seller's defense, there is no mention that these are polarized, I just assumed they were because they reference the exact same product code (RA4004) as the polarize ones I tried on in the store.  The service was great.  I had the glasses just days from placing my order and didn't select any special expediting shipping.  I guess I got what I paid for.
