OAKLEY AND TEAM USA SURFING DROP EXCLUSIVE OFFSHORE APPAREL COLLECTION

Oakley is teaming up with Team USA Surfing as the Official Outfitter of the US surfing team, marking a historic milestone as surf returns to the Olympic stage at this Summer’s Games. Building on the esteemed Team USA Partnership and as a core tenet of the brand’s heritage in surf, the Oakley Team USA Offshore Collection will include apparel and eyewear for athletes to wear out of the water during competition and will be available for purchase at select retail locations, alongside Team USA Oakley eyewear.

Oakley's commitment to innovation and style is exemplified by its collaboration with Team USA Surfing and the resulting apparel. The brand is dedicated to empowering athletes with the confidence to excel in competition and look their best during downtime. The Offshore Collection embodies the spirit and culture of surfing, tailored specifically for non-competition mode.

“By partnering with Team USA Surfing, Oakley plays a crucial role in ensuring that athletes are equipped with the highest quality apparel and eyewear while out of the water, showcasing our commitment to excellence and dedication to the brand’s established DNA in the sport,” says Corey Hill, Global Head of Oakley Sports Marketing. “Together, we not only support athletes but inspire a new generation of surfers and fans worldwide, solidifying surfing's place in the annals of Olympic history.”

Designed with the needs of Team USA surfers in mind, this collection is purpose-built with ergonomic seaming, meticulous attention to trim details, and premium fabrics. From rashguards to boardshorts, each garment in the collection is engineered to deliver optimal comfort while ensuring mobility in offshore conditions. The collection includes a windbreaker, tech fleece, convertible pants, tech fleece shorts, cotton & hybrid tees, cotton tanks, rashguard, poncho, 2-in-1 boardshort, compression bra, and a women’s skirt.

"This collection distinguishes itself through an engineered blend of style and functionality tailored for today's surfers" says Massimo Nicosia, Oakley Apparel Design Director. "Inspired by the ocean colors and reflections, our designs and prints draw inspiration from the natural beauty and velocity of the waves, which athletes set in motion during competition and in turn empowers them to proudly showcase their Team USA pride after their performance in the water. We are incredibly proud to offer this collection at the highly anticipated Summer Games, having collaborated so closely with athletes to deliver gear that embodies both best-in-class apparel and the exhilarating rush of surfing.”
