Tom Cruise Made Ray-Ban Wayfarers Cool Again
An unforgettable scene of Tom in the movie “Risky Business” is him in Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses. The viewers and his fans noticed this and adapted it as a sign of being cool and trendy. Because of this, the Ray-ban Wayfarer suddenly became famous nationwide and dramatically increased its sales.
Interestingly, before this surge, the manufacturer had intended to stop its production and sale. But thanks to renewed interest following Tom’s look in the movie, Ray-Ban recognized the sunglasses’ newfound status in pop culture and reconsidered their earlier decision. That was in 1983, and decades later, Ray-Ban Wayfarers have continued to be sought-after fashion accessories.
