#Oakley Taps Mbappé and Brown to Define the 'Stage Before the Stage'

Lucknow : The modern athlete’s influence no longer stops at the whistle. Recognizing that style and mindset are as critical as performance, Oakley has officially launched its latest Players Collection, featuring bespoke eyewear collaborations with global football phenomenon Kylian Mbappé and basketball powerhouse Jaylen Brown.

The campaign focuses on the "stage before the stage"—that pivotal, quiet moment of preparation where an athlete locks in their focus. By partnering with Mbappé and Brown, Oakley highlights two icons who are actively rewriting the cultural narrative of professional sports.

Jaylen Brown’s contribution to the collection is an exercise in sophisticated identity. His signature series features the Oakley Highland, reimagined in an exclusive cocoa brown palette. The design serves as a nod to Brown’s off-court aesthetic, blending intellectual style with athletic durability.

Key Features: Lightweight O-Matter™ frames and Prizm™ Ruby Lenses.

Design Philosophy: The frames include Brown’s personal logo, emphasizing his belief that "performance, creativity, and identity" are inextricably linked.

Kylian Mbappé: The Permian Signature Series
Kylian Mbappé’s signature eyewear, the Permian, is designed to be as fearless as his gameplay. The piece is a tribute to his meteoric rise and his deep connection to his hometown of Bondy.

Signature Details: The coordinates of Bondy are etched into the temples, while his personal logo is embedded directly onto the Prizm™ Road Lenses.

The Mindset: Mbappé describes the collection as a "signature" of his journey, noting that style defines an athlete's presence long before kickoff.

Technical Excellence Meets Cultural Impact
Both series utilize Oakley’s proprietary Prizm™ Lens Technology, engineered to enhance color and contrast so athletes—and consumers—can see detail more vividly. The use of O-Matter™ ensures the frames remain form-fitting and resistant to deformation, even under the rigors of a high-intensity lifestyle.

Price Point: Starting at INR 11,690.
