Most items are designed in house at their head office, but some countries hold exclusive designs relevant to their market. Oakley currently holds more than 600 patents for eyewear, materials, and performance gear.[2][3] HistoryOakley was started by James Jannard in 1975 out of his garage with an initial investment of $300. The name "Oakley" came from Jim's English Setter, "Oakley Anne." Jannard began by selling what he called 'The Oakley Grip' out of the back of his car at motocross events. His motorcycle grips were unlike other grips available at the time. The material is still used to make the earsocks on Oakley glasses, and many of the nose pieces and now the bands of their watches. Oakley went on to produce number plates, gloves, grips, elbow guards, chin guards, and goggles for the BMX and motocross communities.[4] After selling Oakely Inc. to Italian Eyeware company Luxottica Group in 2007, founder James Jannard went on to found Red Digital Cinema. In 1980, 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.[5] In 1983, Oakley began selling ski goggles.[6] 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.[4] The company went public in 1995, raising $230 million.[7] In early 1996, Oakley had a pricing dispute with Italian company Luxottica, the world's largest eyewear manufacturers and retailers. Luxottica stopped carrying Oakley's products in their stores, including Sunglass Hut, and Oakley's stock market value declined 33%.[8][9] In 2001, Oakley bought Iacon, Inc., operator of mall-based sunglasses stores Sunglass Designs, Sporting Eyes, and Occhiali da Sole.[10] Oakley signed a four-year agreement to manufacture eyewear designed by themselves and Fox Racing in September 2004.[11] Starting in 2004, Jannard bought large quantities of Oakley stock: $2 million in 2004, $16 million in 2005, and $4.6 million in early 2006, bringing his personal stake in the company to 63%.[12] In 2006, Oakley acquired the Oliver Peoples group, a manufacturer of high-end fashion branded eyewear (under the Oliver Peoples, Mosley Tribes, and Paul Smith brands) for $55.7m,[13] and Optical Shop of Aspen, a luxury eyewear retailer with fourteen stores.[14] On June 21, 2007, Luxottica announced a plan to purchase Oakley in a cash deal worth $2.1 billion, paying a 16% premium over the extant share price.[15] The deal was completed on November 15, 2007, making Oakley part of a portfolio that includes brands such as Ray-Ban, Persol, and Vogue.[16][17] During the preparations for the ultimately successful rescue of thirty-three miners trapped for ten weeks in a Chilean mine in October 2010, a journalist covering the story contacted Oakley about donating sunglasses to the rescue effort, aware that the miners would need eye protection after having spent weeks in darkness. Oakley donated 35 pairs of its Radar sports glasses, fitted with specially selected tints.[18] Oakley sponsored members of the US Olympic Team in 2012.[19] In August 2013, Oakley sold its REVO brand to Sequential Brands for $20m.[20][21][22] Technical innovationMost of Oakley's technological designs, fashion pieces, gear, etc. were developed with extensive athlete input and testing in the field – including extreme conditions. Oakley also maintains US Standard Issue, which provides U.S. military and law enforcement eye protection. Oakley M Frame sunglasses are included as part of the U.S. Army's Authorized Protective Eyewear List (APEL), and have been assigned a National Stock Number (NSN) for ordering through military supply channels.[23] The company has also built at least one 'golf hovercraft', intended as an all terrain replacement for conventional golf carts, in partnership with the professional golfer, Bubba Watson. {{clear}}References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://investor.oakley.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=67365&p=irol-govManage |title=Oakley Profile |publisher=Investor.oakley.com |accessdate=April 19, 2012}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=Oakley Company Profile|url=http://www.oakley.com/en/?nav=TN-Oakley|accessdate=July 31, 2016}} 3. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/946356/000089256907001415/a35754e8vk.htm|title=Oakley, Inc.|website=www.sec.gov|access-date=2017-05-26}} 4. ^1 {{cite book|last=Caldwell|first=Michael|title=The Unknown Billionaires: The life stories of 50 self-made men and women|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=6n3_AwAAQBAJ&pg=PT84|date=11 July 2014|publisher=eBookPartnership.com|isbn=978-0-9784620-8-6|pages=84–89}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://oakley.com/innovation/history |title=Oakley History |publisher=Oakley.com |accessdate=April 19, 2012}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/Oakley-Inc-Company-History.html| title=Oakley Inc.|accessdate=June 9, 2010}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://articles.latimes.com/1997-03-16/magazine/tm-38675_1_oakley-sunglasses|title=LA Times: A Trip to Planet Oakley|publisher=LA Times|accessdate=November 4, 2012|first=Ed |last=Leibowitz}} 8. ^{{cite news|title=Sticker shock: Why are glasses so expensive?|url=http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-18560_162-57527151/sticker-shock-why-are-glasses-so-expensive/|newspaper=60 Minutes|publisher=CBS News|date=October 7, 2012|accessdate=October 19, 2012}} 9. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/oakley-inc-history/ |title=History of Oakley, Inc. – FundingUniverse |publisher=Fundinguniverse.com |date= |accessdate=2013-08-13}} 10. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.deseretnews.com/article/865482/Oakley-to-buy-Iacon---a-sunglasses-retail-chain.html?pg=all |title=Oakley to buy Iacon a sunglasses retail chain |publisher=Deseret News |date=2001-09-24 |accessdate=2013-08-13}} 11. ^"Fox Racing Signs Sunglasses Deal With Oakley."
