In 1980, Jim Jannard released a pair of goggles called the O-Frame. With the ‘Oakley’ logo present on the strap, the brand garnered increasing recognition and prominence throughout the sports industry. In 1983, Oakley began selling ski goggles.

The first Oakley sunglasses; Factory Pilot Eyeshades, were sport-oriented, resembling goggles and were released in 1984. These were followed in 1985 by the Oakley Frogskin, a casual sunglass style that was made in Japan. Fast forward, now Oakley designs and sells eyewear for sport, lifestyle, and youth in many designs and styles.

If you’re looking for a technologically advanced pair of sunglasses or eyeglasses, Transcona Optical has a large selection from Oakley.
