It is almost impossible to think about some of the best action movies’ characters without their sunglasses. Just try thinking about Arnold Schwarzenegger in Terminator, Tom Cruise in Top Gun or Daniel Craig as James Bond in any of the saga’s latest movie. (Although we did identify his shades in Spectre here.)
We have to admit that few things in the world make a guy look cooler than a trendy pair of shades. And if the words cool, trendy and shades go together in the same sentence, Ray-Ban is sure to appear before or after any of them.
Ray-Ban’s marketing gurus know better than anyone else that the best sunglasses ever put on film are more than just nice accessories, chosen by chance. A pair of shades mean something to the character and they say something important about him. In some cases, the main character of a movie has been elevated from cool to the status of legendary purely thanks to a great pair of glasses.
Ok, you might not be a movie star but your style can still be legendary with a pair of awesome Ray-Bans which will not break the bank! Have a look at these five timeless models of Ray-Ban that have become cultural icons and choose the one that suits you best.
