One of the most recognizable sunglass silhouettes to come out of the ’90s, Oakley’s Straight Jacket continues to resonate three decades later, thanks to its distinctive visual attitude.

Now, the pioneering wraparound is cooler than ever, courtesy of a performance-driven update that pays homage to the rebellious spirit of the design.

Cooler than ever

The Straight Jacket has been re-released multiple times over the years, but the latest iteration features a distinctly modern spin, cooked up by the creative minds at Satisfy.

The most notable (and cool) update? Ventilated, Satisfy-exclusive Prizm Black Lenses that sharpen contrast, clarify detail and allow for heat release and fog resistance as intensity builds.

Dressed in Matte Black, the revitalized Straight Jacket also features Satisfy branding on the nose bridge of the lightweight O-Matter frame, which is built with a patented nylon composite that works hard and stays inconspicuous on long runs.

Oakley’s proprietary Unobtainium Earsocks increase grip alongside effort, ensuring the sunglasses stay in place.

The refreshed Straight Jacket 99 is high on style … and price.

Although this new edition tops $300, considering the hype around both brands and the legacy model, it is sure to sell out quickly.

Availability and pricing

The Satisfy x Oakley Straight Jacket 99 will be available later today on both brand’s websites, retailing for $335.
