Celebrities have their pick of any designer sunglasses that they like, and even sports stars want something with a designer name, with an equally important focus on functionality.
Oakley sunglasses offer the sports stars the perfect solution. With high-quality workmanship and a style for any sporting event, these sunglasses have been the choice for people who like to work hard and play hard. With the stunning Oakley aesthetics, this brand offers the whole package for anyone into their sports.
In the past, Oakley has inked a deal with Ducati to produce a range of sunglasses to sponsor the Ducati MotoGP and Superbike teams. Some riders have also had the privilege of having their own Oakley signature sunglasses, such as Casey Stoner and Loris Capirossi.
As for a sporting legend, Lance Armstrong is certainly recognised for his cycling achievements. Added to this, he has a lifetime deal with Oakley, which shows that they both appreciate the power of a great pairing. Oakley wouldn’t consider a lifetime deal if they didn’t think Lance Armstrong was the right person to be seen wearing their designer sunglasses, and equally Lance Armstrong needs a brand that reflects his style and has a purpose.
In 2007, Oakley actually created two special-edition sunglasses with “LIVESTRONG” etched onto the lens, which is the name of the Lance Armstrong foundation. These Oakley sunglasses featured an iconic yellow and the Oakley logo. This successful formula was also re-issued in 2008, with a new style of sunglasses, but with the same theme as previously.
In addition to the success of the Lance Armstrong collaboration, Oakley sunglasses are also the sponsors of a number of NASCAR high-profile figures, such as Tony Stewart. He is frequently seen sporting the iconic Oakley brand of sunglasses as he drives around the tracks.
So, whichever sport you’re into, you can find an appropriate pair of Oakley sunglasses to match. Designer sunglasses offer versatility, style and function, and Oakley are considered one of the top names to offer the perfect choice of sunglasses for people from all walks of life, but particularly those on the move. Oakley has successfully catered for a market that likes their lifestyle to match their dress style.
