Description

Oakley was founded in 1975 by James Jannard in a garage with an initial investment of only $300. The company started with creating innovative motorcycle grips using a rubber compound called "Unobtainium." Later, Oakley diversified into producing sunglasses with revolutionary designs and advanced technology, particularly for extreme sports and athletics. The brand became known for its focus on performance and protection, paired with a distinctive style. Over the years, Oakley expanded its product range to include clothing, equipment, and sports accessories, while continuing to collaborate with high-level athletes to enhance and test its innovations.
