THE HISTORY OF OAKLEY

Defgrip (one of my favorite blogs for all things BMX/Art influenced) has a great interview with Mike Bell, former AMA Supercross champion, and current Oakley employee.

What many of you might not know is that Oakley, arguably the world's most famous eyewear company, started out as a BMX grip company. The first bike I ever owned actually had a pair of knock off Oakley F-1 grips, so this video takes me back to those days as a six year old.
