Oakley is no stranger to creating innovative lifestyle products that are of the highest quality. Their groundbreaking sunglasses are vouched by the best athletes out there for a good reason. Now, the American company has unveiled a limited-edition cape that fuses with their high-end glasses.
Fit for a futuristic world, the Oakley Moonveil design is limited to just 100 pieces and carries the original concept art from Dark Horse’s Genesis comics. The artwork is done by Oakley product designers and carries a Moonveil image on the backside. There’s no word on the pricing of this exclusive piece, however, the availability is promised in September 2024, directly from Oakley’s website.
Designer: Oakley
Oakley has created a brand new headwear category in the industry with this product that foresees a better life outside the bunkers in the future after the Doomsday effect settles down. The unique headwear will be featured in the Future Genesis Chapter One, and according to Brian Takumi, Oakley’s Vice President of Brand Heritage and Creative, “We are connecting the worlds inside and outside of Future Genesis through a vision of empowerment and revolutionary innovation in design.”
In-house designers were able to blur the boundaries of innovation with this self-contained piece. Using State-of-the-art Physiomorphic Geometry, the design got the freedom in form, resulting in an enhanced wearing experience. Adaptability and flexibility are at the core of this jet-black cape with integrated sunglasses. The rotating system of the knitted cape allows the user to toggle between the dual Prizm lenses. One of them is the Prizm 24K lenses for maximum eye protection when the sun gets too harsh. The other is Prizm Low Light lenses which enhance vision with in-built light transmission for low-light conditions.
The front of the balaclava-style cape has a zipper placket for a tailormade fit that allows the wearer to quickly switch between styles. It can be adorned in an open style or zipped-up protection configuration for harsh weather or a sense of secrecy. The headwear cum eyewear will be perfect for athletes, photographers and mountaineers who venture out in extreme weather conditions. The level of flexibility and attractive styling of the cape makes it one of Oakley’s best-ever creations.
