  • Oakley officially introduces the Latitude SS26 Collection which draws direct inspiration from the rugged durability of parachutes
  • The functional capsule bridges urban environments and the outdoors through advanced material choices and adaptable silhouettes
  • Key technical pieces include a transformable Slingpack Jacket alongside the terrain-ready Eon Alpha footwear

Oakley has officially launched the Latitude SS26 Collection, continuing its pursuit of seamlessly merging urban aesthetics with outdoor utility. Billed as a next-generation apparel line, the latest seasonal offering draws direct inspiration from the high-tensile durability and construction of parachutes.

Leading the technical lineup is the Slingpack Jacket, constructed from a lightweight nylon that features a built-in storage function, allowing the entire garment to transform into a functional sling bag. The performance range is further supported by the Veil ¾ Short, which utilizes a highly elastic stretch Cordura treated with a specialized water-repellent finish. Providing additional lower-body coverage is the Veil Pant, engineered as a three-layer multi-purpose shell designed to withstand shifting climates and demanding outdoor excursions.

Expanding beyond outerwear and bottoms, the capsule introduces the Eon Alpha. The new footwear silhouette is purpose-built to navigate diverse environments, prioritizing advanced grip and dynamic traction across various terrains.

The Oakley Latitude SS26 Collection drops now via select Oakley directly managed stores, authorized retailers, and the brand’s official online store.
