Oakley, established in California in 1975 and now owned by Italian luxury goods brand Luxottica, has been a consistent innovator in the field of technical eyewear.

It has used its successful partnerships, athlete endorsements and licensing deals – in sports as diverse as Pro Tour cycling, the NFL, and Major League Baseball – to further develop and refine its high-performance products.

Like Aston Martin, which is returning the legendary British automotive marque to the Formula One grid for the first time in more than 60 years, Oakley is also returning to Grand Prix racing – for the first time since 2016.

This collaboration gives us a unique opportunity to turn this toughness into inspiration, pushing the boundaries of technology and innovation. We’re already looking forward to an incredible journey ahead.
