Customise, personalise, identify
The technology from Oakley has been defying industry conventions for many years. Since 1975 the founder of the company, Jim Jannard has had the goal to manufacture products, which are better than all the rest.
For over 35 years engineers from Oakley have been turning his goal into reality. Unusual frame design, bold styles and Oakley's “Form Follows Function“ design result in an unmistakable eyewear collection. Today the Oakley collection includes five various frame materials, as well as lenses with HDO and Polaric Ellipsiod technology, polarising filters, innovative tints, optimal UV protection and water resistant coatings.

Lance Armstrong created the “Oakley Lifestrong“ collection, for the benefit of cancer research, which has six various sports eyewear models with unmistakable black-yellow design – including the legendary Flak Jacket and lightweight Radar Path.
