    Fact. Oakley’s original product: A super killer motocross grip.

    The little known trivia tidbit became apparent for all the guests at Staple Design’s retail store, Reed Space, in New York last week – as they admired retro ads featuring ‘the Oakley Grip’ from the storied company’s founding year on display.

    Oakley teamed up with designer Jeff Staple to celebrate 35 years of greatness at the boutique by unveiling the first two of six total pieces from The History of Oakley collaborative collection, which pairs up the iconic Eyeshades, Razorblades and Frogskins with the contemporary Radar, Jawbone and Holbrook shades.

    Sammy Carlson obviously shreds on skis. But more importantly, he’s a winner at something a little more important: Being an all-around quality dude.

    Oakley’s golden boy on skis teamed up with buddy Scott Rowley to raise money for TACA (Talk About Curing Autism), a super admirable foundation that provides information, resources and support to families affected by autism. The organization fights hard every day to develop treatments for the condition: An uphill struggle in itself.

    In a compassionate move that recognizes the importance of progress in defeating autism, Sammy and Scott created TACA H2O, a bike trip stretching from Hood River (Oregon) to Ogden (Utah) that would aim to raise $25,000 for the foundation. The proceeds, generated from donations, would flow directly into TACA.
