Anybody who has ever considered a pair of quality sunglasses has, without doubt, heard the name Oakley before. Based out of Orange County, Oakley has been reshaping what the term "eyewear" means for the past quarter-century. Their approach defies convention; they aim to meld art and function into their products, delivering high-fashion, high-performance sunglasses for top-level athletes as well as everyone else.

Oakley's began designing motorcycle grips before moving onto snowboarding goggles. Today, they produce sunglasses, clothing, goggles, footwear, backpacks and travel bags, watches and prescription eyewear. Their diversity and range of products speak for themselves.

Oakley looks to push the envelope in terms of what defines "eyewear". They also sponsor top-level athletes who share their concept of "exceeding the limits of possibility." Amongst these sponsored athletes are F1 drivers Kimi Raikkonen and Fernando Alonso, snowboarder Shaun White, and MLB hotshot Ichiro Suzuki.

With over 600 patents to their name, Oakley constantly searches to improve their products technically. But aside from their technical prowess, their products are known for their sporty, fashionable appearance. Using what they refer to as "Sculptural Physics", Oakley aims to house their engineering solutions in beautiful, artistic bodies.
