Durable repellent surfaces of high transparency find key applications in daily life and industry. Nevertheless, developing anti-reflective coatings with omni-repellency, concerted multi-function, and desirable durability remains a daunting challenge. Here, a highly comprehensive coating is designed based on the combination of structural design and molecular design. The resulting silica hybrid coating not only manifests enhanced transparency and exceptional omniphobicity, but also achieves integration of multi-function (e.g., anti-smudge, anti-icing, and anti-corrosion). The unprecedented durability of the coating is evidenced by maintaining slipperiness after rigorous treatments, such as 2.5 × 10
