Jannard started selling “the Oakley Grip” out of the back of his car at motocross events. His grips used a patented material known as “Unobtanium”, which was unlike any other grips at the time.

In 1980, Jannard introduced a pair of goggles called the O-Frame. With the Oakley logo present, the brand became well known throughout the sports industry.

The company went public in 1995, raising $230 million.

Oakley donated 35 pairs of its Radar sports glasses, fitted with specially selected tints.
