Ray-Ban Predator 2 RB2027 Sunglasses
The Ray-Ban Predator 2 (RB2027) is one of the most recognized sport-influenced frames in the Ray-Ban catalog. Its wide, wrapped rectangle silhouette delivers a bold athletic profile that bridges casual and active wear without compromise. The Predator 2 gained broad cultural recognition through film and sport, and it has held its position as a flagship Ray-Ban sport frame for decades.
Frame Construction and Fit
The Predator 2 frame is built from lightweight nylon, a material chosen for its durability and resistance to the flex and impact that active use demands. The wraparound fit positions the lenses closer to the face, reducing peripheral light intrusion and creating a more secure feel during movement. Thin temples carry the Ray-Ban signature logo and feature a subtle striped texture treatment on the inside of the temple tips for added grip and tactile detail. The High Bridge Fit design raises the bridge contact point, providing a more secure and stable position for wearers with higher nose bridges.
Lens and Optical Quality
The Predator 2 is offered with a range of lens treatments. The mirror gradient treatment combines a reflective outer surface with a gradient tint, reducing glare and managing light across varying brightness levels. Ray-Ban also produces the RB2027 in a polarized configuration (identifiable by the "P" lens badge), which uses a polarized filter to block horizontally reflected glare from water, pavement, and other flat surfaces. Both treatments carry 100% UV protection in line with Ray-Ban's standard across all production lenses.
Measurements and Dimensions
The Predator 2 runs with a generous wraparound width. The full hinge-to-hinge measurement is 141mm, the lens height is 38.2mm, the bridge width is 19mm with a 62mm lens, and the temples are 130mm. These proportions suit a medium to large face and deliver the wide, assertive coverage that defines the frame's sport aesthetic. The Regular fitting sits true to the Ray-Ban size scale.
Sport and Lifestyle Use
The wrapped fit and lightweight nylon construction make the Predator 2 well suited to outdoor activity. The close-to-face geometry keeps the frame stable during movement, while the broad lens coverage protects against wind, sun angle, and peripheral light. It performs equally well as an everyday driving and outdoor frame. Island Water Sports carries the Predator 2 in store and online for pickup or delivery across South Florida.
