The Oakley Factory Team, the brand’s experimental design lab led by Brain Dead, has unveiled its third and final drop for Fall/Winter 2024. Headlining Drop 3 is the all-new Ibex silhouette, a futuristic take on outdoor footwear that positions itself as the greatest ever (GOAT) in its category.
Designed entirely by the Oakley Factory Team, the Ibex embodies the brand’s signature organic design language. A flow-molded exoskeleton frames the upper, connected by a nylon lacing system that creates a layered, textured aesthetic. This innovative construction not only turns heads, but provides unparalleled support for any adventure.
Equipped with Oakley‘s proprietary O-Grip” outsole, the Ibex provides superior traction on any terrain. An Ortholite insole and sculpted midsole work together to provide stability and comfort, allowing wearers to stay sure-footed while pushing the limits.

The Ibex debuts in two distinct colorways inspired by nature. Camelia Glazed, a bold flame-scarlet hue, is inspired by vibrant wildflowers. Meanwhile, Eclipse is a dark, dreamy hue that reflects the ethereal beauty of a lunar eclipse.
Joining the Ibex in Drop 3 are fresh takes on the Edge Boot and Flesh Sandal. The Edge Boot features a graphite blue hairy suede panel that plays off a gray rubber outsole. The Flesh Sandal features a deep black suede upper against a dark green outsole. In both styles, rich, dark tones define a quintessential fall/winter palette.
Led by the Ibex, the Oakley Factory Team’s Drop 3 offers a glimpse into the future of outdoor footwear. These innovative silhouettes are poised to become instant classics coveted by sneaker aficionados and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
