Oakley’s 2021 Snow Collection, Designed In Collaboration With World-class Athletes, Now Available
Oakley’s Snow collection was designed in collaboration with world-class athletes in a mission to elevate cold-weather comfort across a wide range of demanding conditions. Each athlete represents the best in their respective sport and together they form a team embodying the true spirit of the brand. Oakley worked with each athlete to design a line that fits their needs, both on and off the mountain.
The result is a fresh line for those seeking performance apparel. The collection features the latest fabric technologies, combined with modern silhouettes and added attention to detail. Whether summiting an alpine peak, hitting the park or relaxing in apres-ski style, this line showcases an array of stylish options.
ALEKSANDER KILDE. Aleksander Aamodt Kilde is the most recent of the “Attacking Vikings” to leave his mark on alpine skiing. Kilde is the reigning FIS Alpine Overall World Champion, was the 2016 Super-G champion and is also a 2x Olympian for Norway. A fan favorite with undeniable speed, strength and charisma, Kilde also recently worked with Oakley to design its first pro ski racing helmet, the Oakley ARC5.
The ARC5 PRO was created to be the ultimate FIS certified alpine ski helmet. As one of the fastest and most accomplished racers in the sport today, Kilde’s expertise provided incredible insight into what makes a great helmet.
The ARC5 PRO features an array of technical improvements designed to support performance and safety at all levels, including the M-Forge composite shell with a unique rear design to help prevent the aggressive tuck position that Kilde is best known for from interfering with his neck and body.
- SUPER-TUCK SHELL DESIGN: Unique rear shell design allows for an aggressive tuck position without interfering with the neck or body
- M-FORGE: M-Forge Composite technology is exceptional for any product that needs to protect you from impact and in activities where minimum weight gives you a performance advantage
- GATE PROTECTION FOAM: Dual density foam added to the fronts and sides of the helmet underneath the shell material are designed to lessen the impact of the gate if it hits the helmet
- MIPS BRAIN PROTECTION SYSTEM: Specially designed system reduces rotational forces caused by angled
- impacts to the head
GOGGLE INTEGRATION: Designed for optimal integration with Oakley goggles and tapered around the strap - area to help goggles sit securely against the face
- TOOLLESS CHIN GUARD: Integrated chin-guard compatibility that can be added and removed tool-free
- EMERGENCY REMOVAL EARPADS: Designed so first responders can remove earpads quickly and safely if the head or neck needs to be stabilized in the event of a crash
