FLEX FROM SNOW TO STREET WITH OAKLEY’S FIRST HYBRID GOGGLE SUNGLASSES: FLEX SCAPE
A New Era in Goggle Evolution for All-Year Versatility
Tuesday, September 24, 2024 — Enter Flex Scape, Oakley®’s first hybrid goggle piece that combines the functionality of goggles and sunglasses, delivering the unexpected in eyewear. This invention wrapped in art is the pure manifestation of Oakley's DNA, inspired by a legacy of exploration and experimentation and built to fit in, in any landscape.
“Having eyewear that flexes from the mountains to the streets is a game-changer" said Team Oakley athlete, Lucas Pinheiro Braathen. “This is the level of innovation that sets Oakley apart in a dynamic piece that looks dope and that suits my lifestyle from air to après.”
Just like its name suggests, Flex Scape is built to adapt to every rider’s needs, pushing beyond the goggle norms. The sleek and disruptive design is built to conquer epic bluebird mountain days, transition for relaxing après-ski moments, cater to skaters dropping in from a halfpipe, or handle any off-mountain sport in between. The piece’s defining feature is an interchangeable, one-size woven strap that can be swapped out for ear stems, transforming it from a goggle into sunglasses on the fly to match your style and changing conditions.
Flex Scape utilizes PhysioMorphic™ Geometry, enabling Oakley’s designers to innovate without shape limitations and advance the brand’s quest to progress the human experience. This purpose-built lens conforms to facial contours like a mask for a wider field of view. The eyewear is optimized for brighter conditions and includes a single-layer lens with an anti-fog coating that reduces distortion, reflection, and refraction. The lens also features proprietary Plutonite® material and Oakley's HDO® (High-Definition Optics) Technology, providing 100% UV protection and safeguarding against high-velocity impacts. Oakley Prizm™ technology enhances color and contrast, allowing the wearer to see everything in vivid detail.
Tackle bluebird days or après ski with Flex Scape, available in Matte Black with Prizm™ 24K and Matte Grey Snow with Prizm™ Snow Sapphire Iridium, beginning October 3rd in Oakley stores and on oakley.com.
