Watch Joss Christensen paint brand-new sunglass line with Oakley

Watch Joss Christensen paint brand-new sunglass line with Oakley

Oakley is one of our favorite brands in the world not only because it releases top-performing products year after year, but also because it has extreme respect for its athletes. Most recently, that respect was shown when the company invited some of those athletes—including skier Joss Christensen—to help put the finishing touches on a brand-new line of sunglasses dubbed the Green Fade Collection. Next month, Joss will head to the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro to cheer on his Oakley teammates, and it’s safe to say he’ll be doin’ it in style thanks to this kickass collection.


Joss paints some of the select glasses going into the Green Fade Collection.


An in-depth look at the collection’s painting process.

The Green Fade Collection features the same iconic green used on Oakley’s very first performance products back in 1980. Just 100,000 pairs were made, featuring that signature green on EVZero, Radar EV Path, Flak 2.0 XL, RadarLock Path, Frogskin, Jawbreaker and Crosslink Zero models. All of these models also feature Prizm lens technology, which enhances contrast and color, resulting in a crisp point of view that’s also available on select Oakley goggle models.

Get your hands on these things fast, either online or at select dealers, because—believe it or not—100,000 pairs of sunglasses go quick’ for the likes of Oakley.
