Oakley Factory Team, Oakley’s Endeavor With Brain Dead, Unveils Fall 2025 Collection

Sports performance and lifestyle brand Oakley is continuing its collaborative relationship with creative collective and streetwear brand Brain Dead through their Oakley Factory Team endeavor with a fall 2025 collection launching Friday.

Presenting new colorways of two styles alongside collaborative eyewear, the collection brings together Oakley’s performance legacy and Brain Dead’s neo-futuristic design language, which is influenced by the natural and surreal worlds.

Evolved from an early 2000s icon, the Oakley Flesh, the Oakley Factory Team Flesh Warp shoe style reinterprets the silhouette with an asymmetric lacing system offering a snug fit and contemporary edge. With the second season of Oakley Factory Team, the shoe presents a full-grain leather upper for the Sequoia and Blue/Black colorways, and a hairy suede upper for the Triple Grey option.

The Oakley Factory Team Ibex style, reinterpreting outdoor footwear from a nature-inspired perspective, is offered in colorways called Coffee and Burnt Red. Striking a balance between structure and flexibility to create a precise fit, the shoe is crafted with synthetic suede, a flow-molded cage and a reinforced cording system. The inclusion of mesh windows helps with ventilation, at the same time that an O-Grip outsole and Otholite insole offer traction and comfort.

The collaboration includes eyewear as well, with the options being the Oakley Straight Jacket 99 and the Oakley Factory Team Plantaris. The fall 2025 Oakley Factory Team collection will launch at 10 a.m. PT on Thursday, at wearebraindead.com, Oakley.com, Oakley stores and selected stockists.

This year, Braid Dead also had a collaboration with Adidas come out, focused on Adidas Japan, an endeavor which also involved partnering with pro wrestler Brody King. As for Oakley, the brand celebrated its 50th anniversary this year and tapped Travis Scott to take on the role of chief visionary.
