Team USA Deviation

Oakley is the official licensee and eyewear supplier to Team USA and the U.S. Olympic Committee for the London Olympics. We’re celebrating the honor with a special collection that carries the colors of pride and patriotism. With each sale of this special edition sunglass, Oakley will provide a portion of the proceeds directly to the U.S. Olympic Committee, which is a non-profit organization tasked with raising money to support the U.S. Olympic and U.S. Paralympics teams.

The stone-cold cool of vintage aviators now has the heat of Oakley attitude. Deviation™ pours classic styling into a lightweight frame of C-5™ alloy with a unique square lens shape and the all-day comfort of sure-grip Unobtainium®. Premium optical technologies are paired with a look that strafes past the ordinary and lets originality fly solo.

Many of our frames have “8+ base curvature” (which is tech talk for the lens contour that angles back at the sides), but we wanted Deviation to flat-out deviate from the norm. The idea here is a genuine salute to classic aviators. That’s why we reduced the curvature to 6 base, and the look is pure vintage. To earn our icon, Deviation had to hone an edge on style, so sculptural detailing on the ear stems gives it a fresh vibe that stays true to the look. The final touch is a signature Oakley logo on the top of the bridge.

Five metal compounds are superheated to create C-5, the comfortably lightweight alloy of Oakley Deviation. With our Three-Point Fit, the ear stems don’t hook your ears with uneven pressure points, and the lenses stay in precise optical alignment. We made Deviation with adjustable nosepads for a custom fit plus Unobtainium earsocks for a no-slip grip.

You can get this Oakley original with premium HDPolarized lenses to filter out harsh glare. We produce them with a liquid infusion process that eliminates the haze and optical distortion of conventional manufacturing techniques. All lens options for this frame feature pure Plutonite® lens material that filters out every single searing ray of UV, not just UVA and UVB. Deviation is well suited for corrective lenses, and you can get Oakley Authentic Prescription Lenses. See your eye care professional about the prescription range and premium options.
