Summary

  • For its 50th anniversary in 2025, Oakley has released the “Oakley Ellipse” sunglasses
  • The eyewear is the brand’s iconic elliptical “O” logo
  • It features Physiomorphic Geometry for a close fit, Prizm Lens technology for enhanced vision and Unobtainium components for a secure grip

Oakley is commemorating its 50th anniversary in 2025 with a truly unique release: the Oakley Ellipse sunglass, a high-performance eyewear piece literally shaped like the brand’s iconic elliptical “O” logo.

This clever design wraps a circular frame around Oakley’s Physiomorphic Geometry, allowing for a lens that fits closer to the face while drawing inspiration from the sculptural lines popularized in the 90s. The Ellipse is more than just a commemorative piece; it’s engineered for performance, featuring Oakley’s proprietary Prizm Lens technology to boost color and contrast, and Unobtainium earsocks and nose pieces for a secure fit that grips better with sweat.

Available in several colorways, including a limited 50th Anniversary “50 Midas Fleck” edition with Prizm™ 24k gold lenses, the Oakley Ellipse is a bold statement that merges design, utility, and nostalgia. It is available this month (June 2025) both in-store and online and select retail partners worldwide.
