It has enthralled every type of movie fan, from the romantic, the action seekers, the ponderous, even the so called computer geeks.
Because of this it has created its own icons, and a following with a lifestyle of its own. Its ultra modern motif has fueled this even further by giving birth to a fashion movement of its own. The most apparent indication of this fashion statement is the proliferation of Matrix Sunglasses. Yes, the matrix series was full of sunglasses, giving each role in the move more character, playing a significant part by presenting a statement about every role even before they said or did anything. Who can forget the scene where Morpheus first shows his unique pair with no rim, no holder protruding to the ears, just a clip in the middle supported from the bridge of his nose, pretty cool!
Now these same accessories that produced the effect on the big screen are sought after by every regular Joe. Because, believe it or not, they do make a statement. It makes one feel as invincible as Neo, as sensuously strong as Trinity and as solid and determined as Morpheus. The Matrix has stepped up a notch the Iconic status of sunglasses.
- Replica Neo Matrix Sunglasses – worn by the leading character of the series, they are the bestsellers of the matrix collection. Most have lightweight frames and polycarbonate oval lenses.
- Replica Morpheus Sunglasses – although secondary only to the lead role, Morpheus has probably made the biggest impression than anyone in the three movies. He is by far the coolest character in the entire series with those sunglasses that clip on to the bridge of his nose.
- Replica Agent Smith Sunglasses – Another cool dude in the series is the bad guy who would not die, Agent Smith. His square shaped lenses are easily recognizable in the movies.
There are also replicas of the sunglasses worn by other key matrix characters such as Trinity, Niobe, Seraph and the Twins.
There are websites offering Original Matrix Sunglasses but to be honest we are not certain whether they are or are not. But then again, it may not really make a difference since you are trying to get a pair that looks like what was in the movie, hence a replica. There are plenty of sites, offering Matrix replica sunglasses. Prices vary depending on the quality of the sunglasses and on the level of its likeness to what was in the movies. But one thing is for sure, there is a wide variety to choose from. For instance the Neo replica is not just one pair but several pairs, one for each movie in the series. And even each replica may have some upgrade or changes for you to choose from.
