Ray-Ban Explorer V RB3845, a pilot inspired frame with polarized glare protection
The Explorer V takes the pilot silhouette from the Ray-Ban archives and softens it into a fresh, irregular geometric shape. It is lightweight, easy to wear, and available with a polarized lens option, which is exactly what shoppers searching for the Explorer 5 or RB3845 are usually after.
Construction and materials
- Frame shape: irregular, a rounded take on the classic pilot silhouette
- Frame material: metal, for a slim, durable build
- Lens: solid color treatment, available polarized for cutting glare
- Nose pads: adjustable for a more customized fit
- Fitting: regular; hinge to hinge width of 137mm and a 140mm temple length
The metal frame keeps the Explorer light on the face while the adjustable nose pads let you fine tune the fit rather than relying on a single fixed bridge shape.
Who it is for
The polarized lens option makes the Explorer V a strong pick for anyone spending time on the water or in bright South Florida sun, whether that is a day on the boat, dock time, or just driving with glare coming off the road and water around you. The irregular pilot shape also works as a daily driver frame for anyone who wants something with more presence than a standard round or square lens.
Wear and care
Metal frames like the Explorer hold their fit best when the adjustable nose pads are checked periodically, since they can loosen with regular wear and need a gentle re-bend back into place. Rinse the frame with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or sunscreen, and store it in a hard case when it is not on your face to protect the polarized lenses from scratches.
