Tom Cruise in Top Gun is the epitome of cool when it comes to sunglasses. Aviators were first created by Ray-Ban for the military (hence the name) and were so popular that many pilots continued wearing them after they were discontinued. Ralph Lauren gave the classic Aviators an upgrade by crafting the arms out of wood, but kept the double bridge and 100% UV protection. After all, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it – just add more wood and a designer name.
