I spent 13 years working at Oakley HQ responsible for talent acquisition and was responsible for hiring a lot of people there, primarily the eyewear design team, the entire apparel team, lots in manufacturing and elsewhere throughout the building. I was also a big planner, supporter, participant and active member of the culture and the events created for our comrades. I got a few stories, a nice collection and few rare extras. Glad to be part of the site.

This is a collection of pins that were specifically made for the manufacturing employees. There was going to be a program in which they could be earned. Sadly, this was scrapped as well. I believe I still know where the boxes are located.

We created this coin to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the 1 Icon HQ building. We were planning a major event which included asking Cheap Trick to play, as they played at the opening of the building 20 years earlier. Sadly, all of this got nixed. I believe we never distributed the coins and the last I saw them, they were sitting under my desk.

My collection of Oakley trophy’s for various events I participated in during my career there. All of these were designed and made by one of our awesome modelers - James L. From the left... a Halloween trophy for best O Themed Costume. I’ll write another post for that at it involved and morphed into several stories throughout the years. Next is best decorated tree - we had a tree decorating contest every year, which unfortunately doesn’t exist any longer. I made our departments tree into a rocket ship - picture below. Next is a Movember trophy which I won that year for raising the most money. The next awesome piece was given to me during my going away party and modeled after something in the Engine Room. Say what???? Finally a different year Movember best stache winner. My kids asked me grow at cat tail... so I did and colored it a few times
- picture below.
