What is the name of Oakley's retro-style sunglasses model relaunched in 2007?

The story behind the answer

Oakley’s retro-style sunglasses model relaunched in 2007 was Frogskins.

Frogskins originally belonged to Oakley’s 1980s lifestyle-oriented eyewear lineup. Unlike the company’s wraparound performance designs, the frame used a simpler, classic shape that later became closely associated with vintage sportswear and street style.

The model disappeared for many years before Oakley revived it in 2007. The relaunch followed the discovery of the original manufacturing molds, allowing the company to reproduce the frame and its period styling. The revival helped turn Frogskins into one of Oakley’s best-known heritage models.

A common mix-up is confusing Frogskins with Holbrook, another lifestyle frame with a retro look. Holbrook was a later design, while Gascan and Batwolf belong to Oakley’s more angular modern sunglasses family. Frogskins is the name tied specifically to the 2007 revival.
