Armada went to hire a Oakley VP as their president, so they might somehow have a similiraty in the vision, but thats all.

And so you should, we're great.

Incidentally the brit involvement is true, the money guy used to spend a lot of time in Verbier. and was introduced to the Armada projectt by a UK industry person (not telling who) in Verbs...

^Exactly. Hans Smith used to be Oakley's VP of Marketing, and now he's CEO of Armada. That's where the relationship ends.

Jesus Christ you guys are all a bunch of tools, the title of the post clearly says what it's gonna be about. Why come and post if your just gonna be assholes to the kid if it's something you already know. I wouldn't expect any less out of the people on this site though.

inderictly funded, i mean, oakley pays its athletes (jp, tanner, anthony etc) fair amounts of money, and these guys put that money into armada. so yea, technically it is oakleys money

The Sports Illustrated article is correct.
Oakley may have close ties to both the CEO and the Atheletes/partners in Armada, but that is it.
