Brain Dead’s Oakley Factory Team Introduces the Ibex Silhouette in December 2024
Published
Known for fusing performance technology with cutting-edge aesthetics, the Oakley Factory Team is a creative hub for experimental footwear concepts, with the team led by streetwear label Brain Dead. This season, they unveil a brand-new silhouette, the Ibex, alongside new colorways of the iconic Edge Boot and Flesh Sandal.
The all-new Ibex silhouette features a design anchored by a flow-molded exoskeleton that frames the upper. A nylon lacing system integrates seamlessly into the structure, creating a dynamic, layered texture that retains the organic design language across various Oakley Factory Team silhouettes. The shoe is engineered for peak performance and is equipped with Oakley's signature "O-Grip" outsole for unmatched traction across multiple terrains. The model will debut in two colorways: Camelia Glazed, a fiery scarlet inspired by vibrant wildflowers, and Eclipse, a moody, dark tone evoking the atmospheric allure of a lunar eclipse.
In addition to the Ibex, this new Fall/Winter drop includes fresh colorways of the Edge Boot and Flesh Sandal, two staples in the Oakley Factory Team's lineup. The Edge Boot features a graphite-blue hairy suede upper paired with a grey rubber outsole, bringing the collection a rugged yet modern aesthetic. Meanwhile, the Flesh Sandal sports a deep-black suede upper accented by a dark green outsole, combining comfort and bold styling for versatile wear.
The Oakley Factory Team Fall/Winter 2024 Drop 3 will release on December 17, 2024, through Brain Dead, Oakley, and select retailers online and in-store. As of this writing, pricing information for the new Ibex silhouette remains under wraps, but the Edge Boot and Flesh Sandal should retail for their usual prices ($165 for the Flesh Sandal and $260 for the Edge Boot).
