[Dylan]

i thought its USA.but i see online there is a company owned Oakley is Italian .i wonder to know where is made from ?

second .Do Oakley glasses are manufactured in china cuz of cheap cost or they are made inside USA?

 

[OakleyCan]

Oakley was a US based company. However it was bought by Italian company Luxxotica in 2007.

Oakley's are made in China, USA and Italy.

As for quality regarding country of manufacture that's a contentious subject around here. Judge for yourself.
