The sunglasses that Tom Cruise wears in the beginning of the movie Mission: Impossible II are the famous Oakley Romeo sunglasses. The futuristic looking Oakley sunglasses contain a audio visual presentation of the mission. Unfortunately the glasses have a self-desctruction mechanism, so Tom throws them away just before they explode.
Just as sales of the Ray-Ban Wayfarers soared after Risky Business, like the 3025 Aviators after Top Gun, these Oakley Romeos became extremely popular after Mission: Impossible 2.
The original Romeo sunglasses are not available anymore. On eBay they fetch really high prices (see Oakley Romeo eBay listings).

I've had two different pairs over the years and both have been stolen! These are literally the only pair of Oakleys outside of Zeros that will fit me. I've been trying to find a reputable source for another pair... Anyone know where I can get a pair?
