Clint Eastwood Dirty Harry Sunglasses

Clint Eastwood as police Inspector Harry Callahan wears Ray-Ban 4089 Balorama sunglasses in the 1971 American action thriller Dirty Harry. The hair goes with the threads that go with the shades. Let’s be honest here; these are not “Dirty Harry Sunglasses”. They are most certainly “Dirty Harry Shades”. Eastwood takes the regular idea of “cop” glasses and tosses it like a stale doughnut. These are some blues-inspired, cat-eye-looking, death-stare-inducing, make-your-woman-want-to-party-all-night-long-baby shades.

With Eastwood rocking these bad boys as a street smart detective, his grit complements the flair of the shades. Cool, calm and collected aren’t exactly words you’d use for Eastwood in this flick, but they sure work for the shades. Unorthodox is definitely one way to describe Eastwood in Dirty Harry, (thanks, IMDB) but you’d more likely describe him as a renegade. This is way before any other “renegade cop” films or shows. It is the quintessential original renegade cop flick. With Eastwood and his .44 Magnum taking on San Francisco, not many people get away unscathed.

We all like to watch a movie and feel like the main character was a straight up badass. It’s inspiring. Want that feeling of inspiration? Go watch Dirty Harry. Want to look like Eastwood? Get some Dirty Harry sunglasses. Badass is synonymous with Eastwood whether it’s cops or cowboys. Badass. Renegade. Vigilante. That is the essence of Eastwood and you better believe that’s what you get in this flick. Sit back, throw your feet on the coffee table, roll your favorite un-filtered cigarette, grab a glass of whiskey, and throw on your shades. It’s time to watch some damn Eastwood. Ray-Ban named these shades the “Baloramas”, but they probably should’ve just named them the “Lucky Punks”, because that’s how you’ll be feeling after throwing these suckers on you face. And no, even I couldn’t deny the chance to make that reference.

Want to strike fear in the face of evil and bring down punks all over the city? Start with a pair of these badass shades. Get ‘em here.
