Action Bronson Debuts His Oakley Partnership with a 50 Pair Friends and Family Drop

Baklava is going big for the summer. Action Bronson has been one of the rap game’s most active fashion collaborators for years now, and after debuting his first original New Balance silhouette last month with previews of the upcoming 2811, Bam Bam is going from toe to head with a new collection of Oakley sunglasses.

See the World Through Bronson’s Eyes

Seen in plenty of previews over the past half year or so, the Action Bronson Baklava Oakley collab has been in the works for some time now. With the summer sun beating down, Bronson decided that it would be the perfect time to seed his first collab collection, debuting the partnership with an Instagram post announcing a 50-pair friends-and-family drop.

“I created a bong with this brand as a youth, and that love has grown and flourished into my later years and will be forever,” Bronson wrote on IG. “This is a forever thing. This isn’t a flash in the pan. This isn’t a moment for me. This has always been and always will be. I will elevate and uphold this partnership with the pride of 1000 Roman soldiers. Now you can truly see the world through my eyes.”

Baklava x Oakley Release Details

The Baklava x Oakley Subzero Planet Frog Friends and Family will be limited to 50 pairs, and unless you consider Bronson a friend or family, you likely won’t get your hands on a pair. Luckily, the Queens rapper noted that a full retail collection is on the way soon. To keep up with all the latest from Bronson’s fashion empire, download the Sole Retriever App.
