Agreed!

Interesting...

Matthew M. Williams joins Oakley as Creative Director of Apparel, Footwear and Accessories (AFA). In close alignment with Travis Scott, Oakley’s Chief Visionary Officer, Oakley appoints Williams to elevate the clothing, accessories, and footwear in sports and lifestyle.

For over 50 years, Oakley has designed with purpose, wrapping science in art to create products built to perform. Now, that legacy will continue with recoded design language.

Williams will lead Oakley AFA into its next chapter, defining a new vision for the brand’s future that draws from Oakley’s DNA. Matthew honed a unique sensibility that bridges core values with innovation, whereas his distinct design language has a strong emphasis on form, materials, and quality. Under his direction, Oakley AFA will present both performance-driven and lifestyle collections, prioritizing product innovation across all categories.

Do we know if these are a legit sports frame, or more of a sporty lifestyle frame? I don't know if I'll like them on my face, but they look like something Old Oakley could have designed. - B3

The description on oakley.com says...

"Built to disrupt, not to blend in. High-wrap, spiked, and unapologetically bold, this is SPORT through a new lens. Own the crossover where function meets fearless self-expression."

So maybe it is a sport frame and not sport-lifestyle? Then again it says "crossover" - so maybe not?

Suture Jacket

Welcome to the OR!

Welcome!

The previously released 2026 Spring/Summer Reserve Collection is - as expected - still pricey but less expensive than the newly released 2026 Spring/Summer Latitude Collection that dropped yesterday. If you care - Ha Ha - you can take a look. Links below. But the prices are CRAZY, again, as expected. The one item I was really looking forward too is ridonkulously expensive. The Latitude Veil Slingpack Jacket = $700 I almost feel a bit ridonkulous myself for even thinking it would be just expensive. To me it's beyond expensive.

So O's quest to be a high-end luxury brand like D&G, Gucci, Prada, Fendi, Versace is still in full swing. UGH.

That’s quite the haul! Congrats!

Welcome!

Alright here are some comparisons for the Megawatt with a Sutro and EV Zero I Flight Jacket which it I think would compare well with the Megawatt.

Yeah, thanks for the comparisons you do Dull! Cool to see the frames "side by side" and their info.

A bunch of press releases for some of the new stuff that recently dropped - if anyone is interested...

https://oakley-media-hub.prezly.com/

Yeah, great price point. I like the Matte Smoke-less / Black / Blaze Plasmachromatic.

The Satin Gold pair is back up.

Talk about false advertising:/ - JP

Ha Ha

Ha Ha. Yep.

Great fit and feel. Arms have a little give for the big head folks And certainly have a Eye Jacket and to me a bit of a Madman Vibe with bigger orbitals.

Love it! Congrats!

DECADES OF ATHLETE-LED R&D, BORN IN THE ELEMENTS, DESIGNED FOR WHAT’S NEXT

https://oakley-media-hub.prezly.com/oakley-snow-dna-past-present-future

From 1975 in a Californian garage, Oakley has shaped over 50 years of vision, performance and culture. Since day one, the philosophy has been simple: design for the future, deliver to the present. That mindset was built by a Research & Development team born from the grit of BMX riders, shaping a design approach grounded in real-world testing, not theory. That philosophy lives today through athletes who move between surf, street and snow.

Guided by athlete-led insights from those who live in the elements, Oakley turns innovation into art. Pioneering hundreds of patented lens technologies, from High Definition Optics® (HDO®) and XYZ Optics® to Prizm™ Lens Technology, enabling athletes to read terrain in any condition, and protection systems engineered for speed and impact. These didn’t just raise the standard; they changed the game.

Oakley’s DNA in snow runs deep, rooted in the knowledge that when athletes can see better, they can perform better. This year, Oakley unveils a new era of innovation for its legacy of riders and community...

Grabbed a Neo Jacket. Interested to see how they fit and feel on hand. - Dullisc

That's the pair I would buy right now. I also like the Pewter frame - but that one isn't up on the site it seems at the moment.
