Max Fearlight, a gifted inventor who introduced us to Oakley’s dystopian universe escapes a totalitarian city and lives alone in a retrofitted bunker. He rescues a survivalist named Sasha, whose perspective challenges his rigid worldview, especially when they have a daughter, Maxine. Years later, Max becomes obsessed with locking his family inside a digital virtual reality simulation called the \"Echoverse\" to protect them from the brutal thermonuclear storms outside.










The Oakley Medusa Helmet (2002) is an early-2000s performance helmet concept associated with Oakley’s then-expanding push into technical equipment beyond eyewear. The design is defined by aggressive surfacing, pronounced vent geometry, and a highly sculptural shell intended to signal speed and impact protection.
Functionally, the Medusa emphasizes airflow and coverage through a dense network of vents and channeling, paired with a shell profile that reads more armored than minimal. Fit and retention appear to follow common helmet conventions of the era, with the distinctive elements concentrated in the exterior shell tooling and vent architecture rather than hidden internal mechanisms. As a result, the helmet is often discussed as much for its styling and cultural placement as for technical specifics.

These functional square glasses were created in collaboration with Kaneko Optical. They use an innovative material, in which binchotan charcoal is kneaded into the plastic of the frame. The blue light-blocking lenses protect your eyes from harmful rays from PCs and smartphones. The titanium components ensure lightweight construction and high durability. The modern square design creates an intellectual impression. Available in three colors: black, brown, and a distinctive navy, these glasses combine practicality with fashion.
