For its AH25 collection, the Oakley Factory Team introduces two new frames—Plantaris and Straight Jacket 99—that merge futuristic silhouettes with high-performance materials. Drawing from nature and archival design, these glasses continue Oakley’s exploration of augmented vision through experimental aesthetics.
The Plantaris frame channels an organic visual language, conceived as an extension of the natural world. Its fluid, almost liquid-like contours are inspired by plant growth. The dual temples split into translucent grip zones, revealing a titanium core that evokes a vascular system. This formal direction reflects Oakley Factory Team’s ambition to translate performance through experimental form.
Beyond its conceptual appeal, the Plantaris is rooted in technical engineering. A removable nose pad allows precise ergonomic adaptation, while Prizm™ Tungsten lenses enhance color contrast and detail recognition. Designed for versatility across environments, the frame balances flexibility and optical precision.
Originally launched in 1999, the Straight Jacket® returns in a reimagined “X-Silver” edition. While its flame-like curves nod to its rebellious roots, the updated frame—crafted in lightweight O Matter™ and fitted with Prizm™ Ruby lenses—projects the model into a contemporary vision of speed and style. It preserves Oakley’s sport DNA while embracing futuristic refinement.
The AH25 collection maintains visual consistency across footwear (Ibex and Flesh Warp) and eyewear. Textures, mineral shades, and sculptural forms evoke a shared biomorphic world. Brain Dead, a longtime conceptual partner on the Oakley Factory Team, reinforces this holistic design vision—where accessories and performance are shaped by the same experimental logic.
Far from a nostalgic reissue, the AH25 collection signals a push toward redefining technical design standards. Oakley Factory Team explores hybrid aesthetics rooted in industrial heritage, post-digital form, and continual experimentation. By recontextualizing its archive through nature-inspired and countercultural codes, Oakley positions itself as a true optical design laboratory.
Because it redefines what performance eyewear can be: where visible tech becomes an aesthetic language of its own. With this blend of archival spirit, innovation, and organic inspiration, Oakley Factory Team sets a new direction for future-facing optical design.
