OAKLEY
Many people know the
Oakley Logo represents a global icon in the sunglass market and most are familiar with their state-of-the-art
Oakley Watches . What many do not know is that the brand didn't originally start out making sunglasses, in fact MX grips were sold first in the early days.
Oakley innovations and new product designs provide the perfect balance between science and style using their "sculptural physics" technology (who?). Sculptural physics is defined as "the discipline of solving problems with science and wraping those solutions in art". This method has served Oakley well since its inception in 1975 and has lead to 575 patents and over 1100 Trademarks. Their ability to create innovative products with street appeal has enabled them to effectively sell in 110 countries worldwide.
Below are some of the reasons that
Oakley Sunglasses lead the way in maximizing lens style and technical performance.
High Definition Optics® (HDO®) - All Oakley polarized lenses utilize HDO®, a collection of technologies that include patented innovations for unbeatable optical clarity and performance.
Axis of Polarization - The orientation of the polarizing filter is critical for performance, so Oakley polarized lenses maintain the uncompromising precision of EN1836 standards.
Infusion Molding - Our lens material bonds to the polarizing filter at the molecular level to eliminate haze and distortion.
Lens Colors - You can match your optics to your environment by choosing from a spectrum of optional lens tints.
Polarized Emission - This measure of polarization efficiency exceeds 99% in Oakley polarized lenses, a performance level unsurpassed in the industry.
Impact Resistance - Oakley performance eyewear meets all impact resistance standards of the American National Standards Institute.
Hydrophobic™ - Oakley Hydrophobic technology helps keep vision clear and sharp by preventing water buildup and repelling oils and contaminants.
Oakley Goggles are used by professional atheletes in many different disiplines including motocross, snowboarding, skiing, BMX, and mountain biking. Optically correct Oakley goggle lenses are engineered to maximize peripheral and downward vision while optimizing impact protection. In addition, a legacy of decades in motocross has resulted in the most optically advanced tear-off system in the industry.
Sunglasses and Goggles made them famous but
Oakley also offers masterfully crafted products such as wrist watches, electronics, casual apparel, and footwear. They even offer
Oakley backpacks and travel bags that are world class!
Luxottica Group S.p.A.'s recent merger with Oakley means that Lux now owns Oakley, LensCrafters, BJ's Optical, Pearle Vision, Sears Optical, Target Optical, and Sunglass Hut International and under the Oakley flag they own Dragon, Fox Racing, Eye Safety Systems, Paul Smith Specticals, Oliver Peoples, and Mosley Tribes.
