Ray-Ban Black Strass / Dark Brown Mirror Rose Gold · Wayfarer Puffer

Ray-Ban Wayfarer Puffer RB4940B — the Puffer with the crystal logo

The Ray-Ban Wayfarer Puffer is the Wayfarer Ray-Ban dared to inflate: injected nylon, rounded edges and a thick profile you spot from across the street. It came from A$AP Rocky, the brand's first creative director, and broke cover at the 2025 Met Gala. This unit is the Black with a Dark Brown Mirror Rose Gold lens.

The difference from the everyday Puffer sits in one place: the logo. Here it is not printed, it is set with crystals.

What changes against the standard Wayfarer Puffer?

On all ten colours of the RB4940B the Ray-Ban logo on both temples is covered in crystals, and the two front rivets are set with crystal. On the standard Puffer that logo is screen-printed in white and the rivets are plain gold: that is where the price gap comes from. Frame, lens and measurements are exactly the same.

Inside they are the same pair: same nylon, same 23 mm bridge, same Ray-Ban lens, same 145 mm temple. If you liked the Puffer but wanted something more, this is it. If you want the plain Puffer, it sits in the same collection for 60 to 80 € less.

Genuine Ray-Ban lenses, logo etched in

They leave the factory with real Ray-Ban lenses: the white logo on the right lens and the laser etch on the left. These are not generic lenses dropped into a pretty frame. And if you want them prescription, this is where it happens: we order them from Ray-Ban on your prescription, single vision or progressive, logo and etch included.

This unit's colour

Frame: Black (Ray-Ban calls it "Black"), injected nylon with the quilted relief that names the collection. Lens: Dark Brown Mirror Rose Gold.

And that colour, in practice, is brown with a rose gold mirror: the most elegant of the series, and the one that suits tanned skin best.

This is a mirrored lens: the outside throws light back and you see clean through it. Good for daytime, sun straight ahead, beach, snow or motorway. One caveat: mirror is not polarised. If cutting glare off tarmac or water is what you need, tell us and we will point you to the right lens.

Every lens on the RB4940B blocks 100% of UVA and UVB, mirrored or not.

What you will notice wearing them

• The crystal logo: same weight as the printed one, but it shows. It is what sets this pair apart on a table full of Puffers.
• Light for the bulk: injected nylon takes knocks, heat and flexing without the frame complaining.
• Dark Brown Mirror Rose Gold lens: mirrored, with the extra reflection hard sun asks for.
• One size, and it is the right one: 47 mm lens width, the classic Wayfarer fit. Ray-Ban does not make the RB4940B in 50.

Official measurements

The RB4940B only comes in 47 (M). If you need the 50, it lives on the standard Puffer, which has both sizes.

Spec sheet for this colour

Can it be prescription? Yes — and it is what we do

The RB4940B frame takes prescription with genuine Ray-Ban sun lenses fitted by Ray-Ban, not by a back-street workshop: single vision or progressive, with the logo on the right lens and the RB etch on the left. Bring your prescription or we measure it here in Alpedrete.

The crystals are not touched when glazing: they sit in the frame, not the lens. The pair comes back as shiny as it went in, with your prescription in.

If you are coming from far away, send your prescription on WhatsApp and we will give you price and lead time before you move.

Questions we get about this pair

How is it different from the standard Wayfarer Puffer?

In how the logo is finished. The standard Puffer (RB4940) has the Ray-Ban logo screen-printed in white and plain gold rivets. This one (RB4940B) has it covered in crystals, with crystal rivets. The frame shape, the nylon, the lens and the measurements are identical. It costs 60 to 80 € more because of that.

Do the crystals fall out?

They are set into the relief of the logo, not glued to a sheet. Normal use will not dislodge them; if one ever goes missing, Luxottica supplies the single crystal as a spare and we replace it here. That is the upside of a pair with real spare parts.

Why only size 47?

Because Ray-Ban makes the RB4940B in 47 (M) only. It is the classic Wayfarer fit: 47 mm lens, 23 mm bridge and 145 mm temple. If you need the 50, the standard Puffer has it.

Can a pair with crystals be prescription?

Yes. The crystals sit in the frame and the lens is swapped for a genuine Ray-Ban prescription one. Nothing is incompatible. In fact this is one of the pairs we glaze most in sunglasses, precisely because it looks like nothing else.

Is it the same lens as the standard Puffer?

Yes, the same Ray-Ban lenses with the etched logo and the same UV400 filter. Across the ten colours of the RB4940B there is Ultra Black, Dark Violet, Dark Blue, Dark Pink and two mirrored ones: green with a silver mirror and brown with a rose gold mirror.
