The HQ statues a lot of people here went mad for when they came out. I’m not that big an Oakley fan that I covet memorabilia like that - the glasses of course, cabinets yes, pointless trinkets not so much.

Produced, marketed, SOLD, then abandoned and ignored as if a bad dream.
I call that both “odd” and “weird”.
Add ”shameless”, as well.

Semi Trucks and Trailers.

I got mine cheap and still returned them within a week. Neat idea, but poor sound quality.

This thread should be fun!
Aside from the generic water bottle with the foundation logo, O-stores and Vault stores also gave out Oakley-branded water back then when people still lined up at midnight for Black Friday.

That water actually has nothing to do with Oakley. They just thought it would be cool to hand out. I guess thats what happens when you are short on good ideas.

There are a bunch of "in house" items that would qualify for this list. Right off the top of my head is the painters jumpsuit I have.

I think I am along the same train of thought when it comes to trophies.
I feel its something you have to earn and not buy.
Medusa though coveted now is for me the oddest; it didnt sell easy when they came out.
Saw complete sets discounted to 30% off and available for sale in vaults (San Marcos in TX in 2004).
Cleaned out house and glad I did.

Here are two odd apparel that I can think off:

the long sleeve version was more common than the vest but basically, you manually blow air into the tube and puff the jacket up for insulation.

at least they warn you that the vest is not for swimming lol.
