There is only one distinction between the real and a fake. These are the best looking (and feeling) fake frames out there. This is because the Oakley logo is engraved into the nose bridge and there are no rivets to look for. The hardest fake Oakley frames to spot using only photos are the metal "Letter Frame" series, I.E. On the inner part of the frame, it should state that the glasses are made in the United States of America. If there is a sticker that says made in Taiwan, these are fake Oakleys. The second thing that you should look at is where the product is made. If you can scratch them off then they are fakes, this would indicate a screen printing technique being used. Now even if the paint is slightly worn off, authentic Oakley shades will have a raised lettering of the logo. Last find the "O" logo at the base of the sunglasses frames.Real Oakley's are made from high quality durable metals and plastics, therefore they are a heavier weight than their imitation counterparts which are crafted from cheap plastics and metal. The next step is to check and feel the quality and weight of the frames.This happens over time on authentic frames and should not easily rub off. If the frames are fake the logo will gradually wear off. Take a pencil eraser and rub it slowly over it. There should always be an Oakley logo on the nose piece of the frames.Original Oakley's come in neutral metal tones and can be easily recognized whereas the frame colors of knockoffs would be a shade lighter than the authentic ones.This is a result of the paint being on plastic versus metal. Visit and compare the colors of your frames to ones shown on the company site.
Original Oakley Sunglasses are manufactured in USA only. Depending on the style of the frames, the words can be engraved or painted. “Made in U.S.A” should be found on the inside arms of the frames.
