Oakley teams up with Damian Lillard to give back to his RESPECT cause

Damian Lillard recently signed a multi-year partnership with Oakley, joining a roster of other prestigious athletes in the world of sports such as Patrick Mahomes II, Diamond DeShields, Lamar Jackson and Mikaela Shiffrin.

The best part of this partnership is that on June 30, Oakley contributed $140,000 to Lillard’s RESPECT program. RESPECT supports the next generation of high school athletes to stay in school to get a solid education, while encouraging them to show up, work hard, and be kind.

In addition to the contribution, Fabrizio Uguzzoni, President of Wholesale, Americas and Corey Hill, Senior Director, Global Sports Marketing for Oakley surprised Lillard in Portland with a one-of-a-kind eyewear to celebrate the occasion. The custom eyewear is a unique design of Oakley’s iconic Eye Jacket Redux frame engraved with the RESPECT logo.
