About Carrera
The CARRERA collection of sunglasses is produced and distributed by the Safilo Group who acquired the Austrian-based Carrera Optyl company in 1996. The brand is named after the trans-Latin American auto race, "La Carrera Panamericana," hence the brand's tag line,"Racing Sunglasses Since 1956." The CARRERA sunglass collection is based on the brand's original '70s and '80s popular designs. The styles come in a wide variety of retro frame color combinations including: pink/white, black/yellow, white/blue, orange/black, violet/white and green/havana. Many of the styles are also offered with gradient lens colors which take these retro looking shades even one step closer to the originals. The Carrera sunglass brand is targeted to young men and women who are not afraid to live their life to the max, in the fast lane, constantly revving the passion accelerator. Since its launch, Carrera has taken hollywood and the music industry by storm. Celebrities such as Britney Spears, Gwen Stefani, Brad Pitt, Victoria and David Beckham, Daniel Craig, Jamie Foxx, and Adrian Grenier can all be seen sporting Carrera sunglasses. The music industry has also jumped on the bandwagon, as Carreras have recently been featured in latest music videos from Rihanna, Usher, Lady Gaga, Alicia Keyes, and Christina Aguilera, just to name a few.

Made in China. That should tell you just about everything you need to know. Carerra used to quality sunglasses in Italy but since changing production to China quality has gone way down. Same old story with most companies today...too bad these have a nice shape...end Thank You Zappos for such an easy return process.
This Carrera arrived in 2 days to my house and overall after having them for about a month I can say that this brand is really worth purchasing.The style and fit is good quality and stands out from other brands I think. The glasses are lightweight and comfortable to wear.
The product was as advertised and was sent in a timely manner. I would definitely order again from this company. With return paid postage guarantees, you can't go wrong.
It was a birthday gift for my boyfriend. He went crazy over them. He had seen similar ones in St. Marteen while on cruise, so he was so happy and they fit him like a glove. Very well made.
The sunglasses are great. I was concerned that they may be off brand, but they were the real deal. And, as always, they shipped to me amazingly fast.
I got these sunglasses for my boyfriend's birthday. I knew he liked Carrera sunglasses, and I thought he would like these. Turns out he loved them, and so did all of his teammates. I am very happy with my purchase. Good price, stylish and awesome!
Light on the eyes. Good cover area from the sun. Cool to wear. I absolutely like it.
Larger over-all frames than I anticipated. But still my freshest and only pair of shades. M.V.P.
