May, 26: There was a time when the only thing a player wore that mattered was their uniform. That time is over. The game now begins before the spotlight, before the noise, there is a moment where everything locks in: the stage before the stage.
With latest chapter of the Players Collection, co-created with athletes shaping sports culture today, Oakley introduces signature eyewear from two athletes, each with their own co-created piece.
The Oakley Players Collection moves forward with new signature series from Team Oakley Athletes Jaylen Brown and Kylian Mbappé, icons who don’t just play the game, but shape the culture around sport by setting the tone, rewriting narratives, and building communities.
Jaylen Brown’s eyewear collection introduces an exclusive cocoa brown palette creating a distinct and recognizable identity, with Brown’s personal logo embedded across key pieces.
Part of the Oakley Highland Jaylen Brown Signature Series features Prizm Ruby Lenses, engineered to provide excellent coverage, offering superior protection from the sun. Inspired by Jaylen Brown’s off-field looks, this model features form-fitting lenses on a lightweight thermoplastic O-Matter ™ frame built to withstand from shifting or deforming over time
For me, everything is connected: performance, creativity, identity,” says Brown. “It’s how you prepare, how you think, how you show up.”
Next up in the Players Collection family is Kylian Mbappé’s signature eyewear, shaped by the mindset that propelled his rise, fearless and unapologetic. The Kylian Mbappé Signature Series Permian features a bold, deep-set lens construction, finished with Prizm™ Road Lenses. The frame is detailed with Mbappé’s logo embedded on the lens, while the coordinates of Bondy are etched along the temple, a subtle reference to his origins and journey. The result is a statement piece designed to express individuality with intent.
“Style is a signature. These glasses are more than an accessory – they carry my roots, reflect my journey, and define how I move forward” says Mbappé. “It starts before kick off: the way you arrive, the energy you bring, the presence you carry”.
