Not content to produce elite sunglasses and watches, Oakley have turned their eye to their boots too. Oakley’s history with the armed forces goes back 20 years, and the latest product of that partnership is the Elite Assault Boot. Combining athletically inspired design features like a moisture wicking, low-friction lining, and a shock absorbent sole with unusual features like flame-resistant carbon, slash-resistant carbon CX and puncture-resistant Lenzing sole this is one hell of a boot – even if your hike is more rambling than duck and cover.
