Oakley Presents Olympics Team USA Eyewear

Did you know that Oakley is the official licensee and eyewear supplier to Team USA and the U.S. Olympic Committee for the 2012 London Olympics? Oakley celebrated this honor by creating a very special collection that carries the colors of pride and patriotism called Team USA.

Featured above are the following Oakley sunglasses – Team USA JawboneTeam USA Miss Conduct™ Squared, Team USA Commit® SqTeam USA Flak Jacket XLJ, and Team USA Fuel Cell. Check out full descriptions of each style below:


Jawbone – Featuring Oakley SwitchLock™ technology, the lower part of the frame rim opens to allow easy access for quick lens changing, letting Olympic athletes adapt and optimize performance in any light condition. Guys will fully enjoy the revolutionary design which holds the lenses with a suspension system so stresses on the frame do not affect the optics. The architecture of Jawbone ensures there is nothing to diminish the unbeatable clarity of High Definition Optics, and athletes still get the unprecedented comfort and fit of a flexible frame design.

Miss Conduct™ Squared – Updated with a squared-off shape, these lightweight, rimless toric shield glasses for women truly shield you from the elements. It also features Unobtainium® nose pads and a Three–Point Fit that holds lenses in precise optical alignment for optimum comfort as well as Polaric Ellipsoid™ geometry to simultaneously optimize both peripheral view and side coverage. It also shields your eyes from harmful blue light up to 400nm with 100% UVA / UVB / UVC protection via Oakley’s Plutonite® material.

Commit® Sq – Optimized for women, the Commit has an interchangeable lens design that lets you adapt to changing light. Available in the subtly squared (SQ) lens shape or the aviator inspired (AV) lens shape, this stress-resistant O Matter® frame material gives it a low weight, the three-Point Fit that touches only the sides of your head and the bridge of your nose, and does so with Unobtainium® components that increase grip with perspiration.

Flak Jacket XLJ – With its dual-lens design, the Flak Jacket offers some of Oakley’s finest technologies in visual performance, protection, and supreme comfort as well as interchangeable lens design so athletes can swap-out the optics when conditions change. The unbeatable technologies of High Definition Optics come standard with this style which includes Oakley’s patented XYZ Optics. The Flak Jacket frame also comes with two sizes of nose pads and Oakley Unobtainium for a secure fit and increased grip with perspiration.


Fuel Cell A a clean, smooth style that trades in-your-face attitude for outspoken originality. The streetwise design is made of durable yet lightweight O Matter® frame material in confident contours that improve side protection, and Oakley”s Three-Point Fit offers all-day comfort while keeping the lenses in precise optical alignment. The lenses of each frame are actually cut from a single shield of optically pure Plutonite® then placed in the frame to maintain the original, continuous contour. An innovation of High Definition Optics, Polaric Ellipsoid. lens geometry extends clarity all the way to your peripheral view.

With each sale of this special edition sunglass, Oakley will provide a portion of the proceeds directly to the U.S. Olympic Committee, which is a non-profit organization tasked with raising money to support the U.S. Olympic and U.S. Paralympics teams.
