Oakley x 100 Thieves Second Collection Merges Optics with Gaming Culture
References: 100thieves
Oakley x 100 Thieves' second collaboration collection comprises two eyewear silhouettes developed at the intersection of performance optics and gaming-inspired aesthetics. The lineup includes the HSTN SQ model equipped with Oakley’s Prizm™ Gaming 2.0 lens technology, designed for enhanced visual clarity tailored to digital environments, and the Neoforma sunglasses aimed at everyday wear. Both styles are unified by a distinctive 100 Thieves Geo-Print pattern drawn from video game heads-up display maps.
The detailing on the Neoforma includes a tonal black-on-black finish, contrasting red Oakley hardware and a 100 Thieves core logo etched directly onto the lens. The release is accompanied by branded accessories including a microbag, a box sleeve and a zippered hardcase, enhancing package presentation.
