The signature

Iridium

A mirror coating that cuts glare and gives Oakley lenses their colour.

The house

Southern California, 1975.

Jim Jannard started Oakley in his garage in 1975 with $300, naming it after his English Setter, Oakley Anne. His first product was a motorcycle grip, sold from his car at motocross races.

The O-Frame goggle arrived in 1980 and the first sunglasses, the Eyeshades, in 1984. Oakley’s Iridium mirror lens coating was introduced in the 1980s. Luxottica bought the company in 2007, and it is now part of EssilorLuxottica.

Can I have my prescription in Oakley frames?

Yes, including varifocals and high prescriptions. We measure and fit the lenses here. Single vision lenses run from £112 to £559, and every option is shown with its price before you decide.

Do you sell Oakley sunglasses?

Yes, and we glaze them with your prescription, including tinted and polarised lenses. Ask when you book and we will have the sunglass collection out for you.

What if Oakley does not suit my face?

Then we will say so, kindly, and show you what does. A name on the frame does not mean it will suit you; that is the first thing we say about every brand. And if you buy and change your mind within sixty days, we change the frame or the lenses at no charge.

How much do Oakley glasses cost?

Frames across our ranges run from £70 to £850; Oakley sits towards the upper part of that. Lenses are priced separately and shown before you decide. Pay half today and spread the rest over 4, 6, 8 or 10 months, interest free, with nothing added.
