Since 1937, B&L has marketed its sunglasses principally under the
name "Ray-Ban".
Ray-Ban sunglasses are premium quality sunglasses that are
priced two-to-ten times higher than regular sunglasses. Ray-Ban
sunglasses contain optical-quality, glass lenses that are impact
resistant and designed to protect the wearer from harmful ultra-
violet rays without distorting his or her natural vision.
B&L produced, inter alia, the following styles of sun-
glasses, all of which bore the logo Ray-Ban: (1) Sunglasses with
metal temples and fronts and glass lenses that B&L and we refer
to as metals or metal sunglasses,12 (2) sunglasses with metal
temples and fronts covered in whole or in part with leather and
glass lenses that B&L and we refer to as leathers, (3) sunglasses
with plastic temples and fronts and glass lenses that B&L and we
refer to as plastics or plastic sunglasses,13 and (4) sunglasses
with nylon temples and fronts14 and glass lenses that B&L and we
