I just got a fake pair advertised as authentic. They were a gift for my nephew and I was so disappointed after giving them to him. Their boxes have improved since this video but immediately after getting them out I could tell they were junk. I’ve had many Oakley sunglasses and the quality is no comparison.

This is why I only like buying expensive sunglasses at a store. The bike/running shop I just bought my sutros at even gave me a 10% discount because I got the display pair out on the case, and there was the slightest scratch on them, which was really just a slight smudge that I was able to clean off with soap and water.

Every time I spend a lot of money on an item and get to feeling really good about having it something goes wrong. Glasses always get dropped and scratched. Jerseys and bibs get ruined it the wash. White cycling shoes or bar tape get nasty the second or third use. So can you understand why I don't want to spend a lot of money anymore? We all want to look good cycling but most of us can't afford to. Why does a real pair of Oakley or Rudy or any other brand of glasses have to cost almost $300 when it's just mostly plastic? The tech put in to Prizim has been out many years now and the price should be lowered. I have no problem buying copies from China if they seem like quality products.

brand matters in cycling - you don't want to buy a nasty China product even though the aspect is the same. Materials and safety for your eyes are more important than saving $250 dollars and buying them from aliexpress..

Unfortunately the previous link and their contact information I had is no longer working so I can no longer pass along information regarding the seller I purchased from on Ali express... You can try to search for them using "sutro sunglasses" and look under reviews for photos (many look similar to the ones posted in my video). You can also contact the seller to ask if they have the "logos" and photos as they won't post photos taken with them on Ali express. Hope this helps!
@jeffu.80532 жыл бұрын
You compared all of these differences between the two but didn't even mention anything about the most important difference between them - the lens quality. The lens in the fake pair is nowhere near the same quality as the real ones.
@ilovefreeski Жыл бұрын
Exactly, anyone who thinks they are similar, like many in the comments claiming they have both fake and real, are cracked. The prizm lens technology is very noticeable as it really increases the contrast of things and the overall optical quality is very different.. And even then, things like the prizm logo mentioned in this video are clearly stamped on vs the real being laser etched.

The fact that the strap can’t be aligned below the ears is a big con. Although there is a thing at the back on the inside of the helmet that allows the strap to be pulled through.

I believe on most helmets you're large but before you buy a specific one check the specific brands size chart on internet for said model you wanna get if available or ask local bike shop.also you measure head a bit above brows 1-2 fingers and a bit above ears too and at the back the tape should be at the protruding bone
