Since its founding in 2011, G DLP has become an important figure in Brazil's sneaker and streetwear scene. Now, as the brand celebrates its 13th anniversary, it partners with Oakley to release two shades—once again marking a juncture in its journey of innovation and style.
Combining Oakley’s signature styles with G DLP’s innovative design aesthetic, the collection elevates traditional sunglasses into the realm of streetwear. The collaboration brings to light two iconic silhouettes: Eye Jacket and Eye Jacket Redux. These frames were first designed in the early 1990s and have since shifted popular culture and fashion. Their enduring popularity among athletes speaks volumes about their timeless design and lasting impact on the larger culture.
Inspired by the vibrant hues of sports cars, Pedro Andrade designed the Oakley x Guadalupe Eye Jacket with a bold lilac metallic frame. The glasses are also equipped with Prizm Black and Low Light lenses and finished with G DLP’s insignia. Conversely, the Oakley x Guadalupe Eye Jacket Redux boasts a sleek, mint green metallic frame with Prizm Black Polished and Sapphire Polished lenses. Both pairs are made from O Matter, a high-quality material invented by Oakley that is durable, flexible, and sweat-resistant.
