While procuct piracy is not something i support, a lot of "foakleys" come out of the same machines "the real ones" come out of. They just sell a few boxes out the back door when oakley isnt looking. Same with a lot of procuct that are manufactured in asia and then marked up by 5000%, because a brand name is on it.

Anyway, the oakley lens coating dose not last long, my jawbreaker lens coating peel off after two years of using. Can you explain why since this been many cases happened to many buyers.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi Ryan! You can always contact one of our certified opticians and explain how you have used/treated your sunglasses and they may be able to help you troubleshoot to help your lenses last longer: www.sportrx.com/contact Thanks for reaching out!

[@ryanling7319]

@@sportrxeyewear I have consulted local so-called opticians for advice and answer given is better replace your lens within two years warranty period since the expensive oakley lens can last only for two years . Is this the good solution?.....anyway , I really like oakley design and give it another try , I get myself a new pair of flight jacket sunglasses and a replacement lens for jawbreaker . If same problem happen again then I will say bye bye to oakley and switch to other brand .

[@sportrxeyewear]

Normally, you shouldn't have to replace your lenses within the two year period if they are free from manufacturing defects and you take care of your sunglasses. If you would like to have some more insight into the situation, I would recommend contacting one of our opticians on Livechat or by phone here: www.sportrx.com/contact

Hey Paul! If there's an etching on the lenses it usually signifies authentic Oakleys. However the stress fractures could be the result of improper care. Probably due to being out in the sun or on the dash of a hot car for hours. Good find!

Hi! I got my Oakley Flak 2.0 XL customs today and I got them directly from Oakleys website. When I looked at the lens, I noticed that it didn’t have the etched “PRIZM P” in the lens.

Do you think they are authentic?

If you purchased them directly from Oakley.com they are authentic. Their optical lab seems to go through phases of lens etchings and it is not always consistent from what we have seen.

Another way to tell if your Oakley's are fake is to literally smell them. Yes you can smell a fake pair of Oakley's. Some fake ones have a really strong plastic chemical smell similar to paint thinner to them. A real big dead giveaway if you smell it. And another detail is that all authentic Oakley's have the model name of the frame on the inside left temple arm of the glasses (EG: Holbrook, EVZero, Radar EV, Sutro, Etc.). If it is not there on the inside left temple arm, they are most likely fake.

Sounds like a good review... Next time, when you are showing off a "black" pair of sun glasses, wear a white T-shirt. Black T-shirts and black sunglasses don't show up. And please get your camera closer with better light to the item when you are showing details. 5 feet away with a small item (sunglasses) is too far to see detail. Your background needs to be a white or possibly neon green to show any detail on dark items. Better lighting and more close ups. PEACE

[@tylerandersen9410]

It’s pretty common that they will be in just a pouch if you didn’t get authentic Oakley prescription lenses. It’s because when the practice buys the frames from Oakley in non-prescription, that’s how they send them. Then the practice send the glasses to their lab and provides to you only what they received from Oakley

Damn my old turbines I bought were fake huh. They actually lasted 3 years and the replacement lens worked perfectly.

Granted only one of the five pairs of Oakley’s I bought online were fake so it’s a bummer but strangely I’m not not super mad. Live and learn

[@SuperKatayama]

I work at Oakley and The first round of turbines were released with square O-icons where as for later releases were oval o-icons as you see. Most of the time they cannot get the lenses dimensions right so if the authentic lenses fit the frames good, that most likely means your turbines are real. Its just a first generation of turbines.

Hello! We would need to check the frame and bevel to make sure it will hold a prescription lens, BUT if they are indeed fake, they won't likely pair with the same size lens as it's official counterpart, as Fake Oakleys usually do not have the same size specs.

The density of the frame and lens material will generally give it away. The fake frames will feel lighter and flimsy as well as the lenses. Real ones although lightweight in nature have a more quality build to them and you can tell by the touch and feel the density and smoothness of the frame and with the lenses they have a quality sturdiness to them when you gently tap on them.

I avoid getting the fakes. Only buy mine for the growing collection at my local sun glass hut or go to Dillard's

[@felixjackson2670]

Are you guys for real... Are you saying that if you spend £200 the little bag is better quality than the ones you get for £15 and the box is different too

[@sportrxeyewear]

It's more that the better quality bag is indicative of the better quality frame. The bag can be tangential evidence of the more important thing, which is the frame quality. Thanks for watching!

[@rhyderbradley6688]

Just saved me from getting a fake pair! They looked and felt legit! I asked to see the box and knew instantly.

[@mikeinnator3360]

Same these ebay sellers selling fakes

[@sportrxeyewear]

Haha glad we could help Rhyder!

we also have a term for that its "jokealeys",,

OOoo i like that!

[@ramirocastro8609]

Just got my pair of Holbrook XL customs and they just feel cheap no indicators on lenses for prizm P and no indicators on arms got em straight from website. Paid for the real deal 230.00+ and I feel jiffed

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi there! If you like, send a few photos of your Holbrook XLs to [e-mail] and a licensed optician can review the images to determine if they're authentic!

[@ryuusei136]

How come my holbrook sku is oo9244-3056??

[@sportrxeyewear]

You have the 'asian fit' version of the frame so the lenses are just a hair wider than the 55 for the standard fit.

[@ryuusei136]

@@sportrxeyewear thank you for the info.

NEED HELP, SHOULD I GET OAKLEY OR UVEX 710V

[@sportrxeyewear]

It is a very subjective answer, but it is a resounding *OAKLEY* from us!

[@wrongsend7106]

Well . If somebody will scrutinized it like u guys do. Yeah u will know the difference. Other people they will never know. Lol 😂

[@terrylumpkin4219]

Why some people would buy foakley? If you like regular sunglasses that’s on you, for me I love the real Oakley, Oakley for life

[@sportrxeyewear]

We agree! The difference is quality is very obvious.

[@Tiger24kicks]

Do you trust buying from Amazon

[@sportrxeyewear]

It is often best to buy from an Oakley authentic dealer.

[@pasdteaffaires3551]

I tried once, I received fake and very cheap glasses. They refunded me though. Better buying off a real Dealer.

[@gatoryak7332]

Do not trust Amazon. So many fake products. Not just sunglasses. Yes, you can get genuine Oakleys from Amazon; try to verify that the seller is a legitimate Oakley dealer.

[@michellebautistaminiblog3338]

Hi , it’s design in california but it’s made in China?

[@sportrxeyewear]

We cannot specifically say China but I think 'overseas' is accurate.

[@heavyworkz9037]

what model is that?

[@sportrxeyewear]

First are Holbrooks, second are Frogskins Lite, and the lats model is the Turbine.

[@Ninjaturtles199]

Real Oakley’s are the only way in the sun glasses world. but I wish y’all had more styles and brought back some of the old styles too and mixed it all and selled it all old tint colors in the lens too and different frame colors too .

[@insertrandomnamehere764]

I remember my first pair of oakleys. Dropped $200 on them at the mall. I kept getting asked if they were real or fake. Totally not worth $200 if people can't tell they are expensive.

[@sportrxeyewear]

It may be hard to tell from afar but the overall quality and comfort definitely make a difference to us! Thanks for watching, Thomas!

[@hussamkj403]

U don't buy them for people to spot the difference. U buy them for quality
