Vince Vaughn wears the Ray-Ban Wayfarer RB2140 in the 2024 Apple TV+ series Bad Monkey, a Florida-set crime comedy adapted from Carl Hiaasen's novel. Vaughn plays Andrew Yancy, a former Miami detective demoted to restaurant inspector in the Keys — a character whose sun-bleached cynicism and stubborn refusal to let go of a case provide the show's engine. The Wayfarer's glossy black acetate frame and dark tinted lenses suit both the relentless Florida sun and Yancy's particular brand of dishevelled determination.
Vaughn, whose comedic timing has been a constant since Swingers and Wedding Crashers, brings a lived-in quality to everything he wears on screen. The RB2140 on Yancy reads less like a styling choice and more like a frame the character has owned for years — slightly worn, entirely functional, and perfectly at home in the humid, chaotic world of the Florida Keys.
The Ray-Ban Wayfarer RB2140 is one of the most iconic sunglasses models, crafted from durable acetate and defined by its distinctive trapezoidal shape. First introduced in the 1950s, it features bold lines and a slightly tilted front for a unique visual identity. Typically available with G-15, gradient, or polarized lenses, it provides reliable visual clarity and sun protection. The structured frame ensures a secure and comfortable fit for everyday wear.
