The icon test
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.
@@obi-wankenobi9871 then if that is the case, those are not fakes.
@@kracksmith4ejm1 Technically, they are not, but legally they are still counterfeit.
Q : does amazon also sell fake sunglasses or not? Do they sell fake rayban and oakley?
I bought a pair of "Oakley's " awhile ago, and they just didn't feel like an expensive pair of glasses. Upon further inspection, it said "Orkley" on them. Lol!
it doesnt feel expensive when we pay a cheap price. We get what we pay for ☺
@@noobzrule I had a real Oakleys purchased from their own store and they squeaked every time I moved the hinge for a while.
@@noobzrule Oakley are cheap feeling glasses anymore just with a high price so no you don’t get what you pay for.

Thank you so much for this video SportRx, I referenced it to authenticate a pair of Crankshafts I received today and everything came Oakley authentic. Thanks again, really appreciate the help.
Woohoo! Thanks for tuning in!
@@sportrxeyewear hey there , great video. What are the sunglasses your wearing in the beginning of your video? and size. Thanks
I'm grateful to you for your help!
Thanks for tuning in!
Thanks for this. Always wondered about Foakleys
You are welcome! Thanks for tuning in!
It's amazing how the manufacturers were so obvious with those mistakes when it comes to what to look for but I've come across some A Grade Fake Oakley's that even the experts have to look twice at because they are such good copies (Radar's) 😮 🧐 lol
Thank's fpr tthis heads up video.
Just bought the golf Oakleys that are very good. I just noticed that I can read my heads up display in my car while wearing them which I cannot do with my other sunglasses which are polarized. Big help for me while driving. The Oakleys are now my golf and driving glassed. Will use the polarized in my other car and while fishing. Just had cataract surgery so I can get sunglasses without correction. As a former corrective lens wearer I know the importance of high quality optics.
I’m sooo glad I seen this vid before I bought some from a guy on offer up ! Wow save me $$$ now I have a real authentic pair of Oakleys
The first time I try Prizm Polarized I was amazed how the grass and sky looks lol. Truly amazing upgrade from just Polarized only hehehe. Love my the ruby though
I've had Oakley Fenceline for over 2 years. Absolutely stellar glasses. Not a scratch on the frame or lenses.
The only sun glasses that are range approved for saftey.
Hi Brian! Thanks for checking out our video and sharing your feedback with us!
your range is lying to you
My first Oakleys were 2 of the PitBull frames. On one of the frames the nose pad sections got damaged. Then I replaced the surviving PitBull frame with 2 x Prizim Sappire Gascans. Can you still get new RX Lenses for the PitBull frames?
I had Oakley grips on my BMX bike in the '80s they still use the same formula on their sunglass grips
I’m concerned about some Flak jackets that I saw over here in Ecuador because they cost $185 but I’m not sure what to look out for to tell if they’re real or fake 😰
I bought Prizm Ruby Polarized Holbrook’s. Can’t wait to get them!
Ooooo! Nice choice! Thanks for tuning in, Dylan!
@@sportrxeyewear I hope theyll work! First pair of polarized and prizm. Nervous about the red tint. We'll find out!
Let us know how they work out for you!
I owned a fuel cell for years, till someone stoles my oakley. I was pretty much confident with the glasses. Now I ordered a Mainlink and Gibston. I hope the quality ist still worth the price..
Do those fit smaller that the fuel cell?
I bought a pair of,made in the USA, Oakley Straight Jacket sunglasses 10 years ago and the quality is impeccable. I recently bought a pair a pair of Custom Flak 2.0 XL prism polarised lenses and a pair of Crosslink Trubridge and in both cases the built quality is nowhere near the Straight Jackets'.
Please make more videos about spotting fakes, I just spent $200 on a pair and Idk how to tell if it is real (bought off Amazon)
Got it! Feel free to reach out to one of our certified opticians if you would like assistance verifying your frame: www.sportrx.com/contact
Great vid
Hi Geo! Thanks for tuning in!
When I was 11 I want a pair of Oakley’s so bad. My parents bought me a fake pair. They broke and I brought them to get fixed. That’s when I found out they were foakleys!!! Cool vid guys! 🤙
Oh noooo! Haha. Thanks for sharing your story with us, Chris!
I remember back in 03 going to DC for our 8th grade field trip my classmates were buying all these foakleys from sketch dudes on the street lmao
I wanted oakleys so bad when I was younger so I bought ones at an exhibition fair and I thought they were real lol only 20 dollars 🤦♀️
Also The Soft bag that Oakley sends only have one drawstring & Fokleys soft bags have 2 drawstrings
hi guys thanks so much for the information iam right now looking to purchase a pair of oakley flak 2.0 xl but i really want to know i am getting the authentic oakley
Hi Kester, You will have the option to pick between Oakley Authentic Lenses and Our SportRx Lenses. Authentic lens orders go directly to the Oakley lab for manufacturing
I bought a pair of Clifdens and my cloth does not have an accessory pocket? Everything else looked right but I would like your take on fake clifdens if they exist
i only get custom oaks, and the boxes dont have stickers on them.
I’ve got some Holbrook Mix Prizm coming today bought them direct from there official web site so I’m definitely should be genuine?
Hello guys, I ordered a pair of prescription Oakley sunglasses Prizm Polarized from LensCrafters. I just picked them up and I suspect they didn’t provide the prizm lenses. I wear them outside and there is no difference from my Ray Ban prescription Sunglasses in term of clarity. How do I know for sure if my lenses are Prizm? I heard they may have a P logo on it, mine has the O logo only on one lens
Love the oakley frames I have a fat head and have never owned a comfortable pair of sunglasses until these lol still buying the cheep knock off lenses for them tho
I bought a pair of Oakley fuel cell from sunglass hut inside of bass pro shop and mine didn't even come in a box. Just a bag with some paperwork inside.
The old style Turbines do come with the square O's, I got mine from the oakley store that way. Also they do not have the "assembled in the USA" badge. Some prizm lenses don't have the "P" etched and are polarized
Very true! Oakley has changed quite a bit over the years. Thanks for sharing your experience with us!
@cblodge42 I was just gonna say that. I have the original turbine's with the square O. Pretty upset I can't get new earsocks for them. The unobtanium is basically gone. I also have some from 2017-2018 with the rounded O and no red made in USA badge. Also, my prizm deep water lenses only have prizm etched in them. No P.
@Raymond Bezy the earlier prizm polarized lenses did not have the "P" etched in the lenses.
Are the Standard Issue versions the same as far as markings are concerned?
Hi Andrew! We carry the standard issue shocktube and it seems to have the normal markings a safety/ballistic rated frame would have. Although we have noticed a few pairs where the frame is stamped ballistic but there are no markings on the stock lenses. Hope this helps!
Hey guys was wondering i bought the Fuel Cell limited edition farrari Oakley's with the ruby iridium but I got them wet and didn't dry them and the lenses peeled 😡 I can't find replacement do y'all know any service that can re Ruby red iridium my lenses please help bro thanks for all y'all's Oakley tips
I need some foakleys for when I go kayaking. Hate to loose another real pair in the water again.

What site for 12 dollars for oakleys
Thanks helped me out. Bought a pair online. After watching this I now know they are fake. A lot of fakes on ebay. Nearly look legit. This recent pair nearly fooled me until I watched this video. Thanks heaps for this video. I think I'll just order from the Oakley Australia website to be safe and know hat I am actually going to get.
We are happy to help! Thanks for checking out our video!
I was just about to buy some on eBay , they go
For 65 ... not bad but i figured something was up
@@Wcoast408 eBay is known for fake stuff. Amazon has some fake stuff too.
Good looking out i was about to buy some sutro off ebay too but they got me thinking differently now
i just got a pair of apparitions, do they not come with a cleaning clothe?
They should come with a microfiber bag that doubles as a cleaning cloth.
Guys I have an Oakley Holbrook camaflouage frame, But it doesn't have the red badge at the end of one of the frame, I bought mine from middle east and from authentic website ? Does that mean it is fake ?
I bought an Oakley eyewear frame for near about $79 from an authentic seller in India but I don't have microfiber cloth and not so big label so, should I worry or not?
If you're worrying about whether it's real or not, then yes. The price you paid is enough proof.
Guys, it's all well and good you two looking and comparing but in no way have you helped customers with what to look for that's fake unless it's very obvious. Take close ups so that we can compare as some fakes are getting smarter and smarter...
Thanks for your feedback Robert!
@@sportrxeyewear somebody didnt watch the full video lol dummies
I bought crossrange patch a couple years ago and came with a warranty sheet. I bought a pair of holbrook xl from a legit surf shop in the outer banks and this pair doesn't have a warranty paper. Just info paper. But the box is legit and one other thing on the arm of my holbrook there is a oval o with a x swirl mark going through it. Idk lol
I just got a pair of holbrooks from the oakley store and this one and many others don't have the P for polarized in the lenses.
Hi there! They update the lens markings all the time so I wouldn't sweat it too much.
Well they do have different lenses now. They have standard (no etching), prizm (only prizm etched) and prizm polarised (prizm p etching)
@@bztrain Mine are "prizm daily" polarized and only have prizm written on them but they are awesome.
i have bought my second oakley,i have used so many sunglasses..so far the oakleys are the best in my opinion HDO technology is great..i had jupiter squared switched now to turbine rotor!!
Thanks for tuning in and sharing your picks with us!
$10 much better than $200
The price sure is! I think you would find a major difference in quality. But you can always fool your friends!
On the Oakley website I saw the square Oakley logo on the glasses, not so oval how you guys mentioned on the video. So not sure if the logo is the best way to tel
HI! They were speaking to the logo shape on the Turbine frame specifically. Other models like the Gascan can have a square-shaped logo, but the Turbine will always have the oval shape on the temple.
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.
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!
@@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 .
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
This happened to my authentic Jawbreaker and Jawbone. I'm guessing the sodium from my sweat corrodes the film.
Oakley lenses are shit. They always end up delaminating, peel, flake or bubbling is a problem they need to fix....it always starts at the edges of the lenses.
To be honest they are probably made in the same factory

Are ones without the "USA Assembled" badge are the ones made elsewhere? I have a Drop Point that has all the indicators of a legit product except for the Made in USA(older models) / USA Assembled badge.
Hmmm, it could be an older drop point model before they began using the badge. Send some photos to info@sportrx.com and our opticians will determine their authenticity and get back to you with an answer!
I bought a Oakley Crankshaft frosted frame with violet iridium lens for $49.95 thru eBay with very good seller rating. The price range from $49.95 to $89.95. I’m guessing the Crankshaft is cheaper because they are older models no longer in production.. is that correct?
Hi there! You are correct-the Crankshaft has been discontinued by Oakley.
Same here I bought same for $55 whit violet iridium lens
There are several styles that have been discontinued by Oakley that can be purchased at huge discounts. You just need to make sure you are buying them from a reputable online company that is selling the real thing. I bought a pair of polarized Oakleys last year for only $55. They originally retailed for $190.
What’s a good reputable online company that sells authentic discount oakleys
The easiest way to make sure you get real oakleys is to only order them from the official website or get them somewhere like cables or any other certified oakley dealer
Hi guys. Can you tell me what a real certificate of authenticity should look like, more or less?
Hi there! It will be quite lengthy as you can see in the video and should contain all the product specifications and return policy information.
Thanks. Just one suggestion: it would be better if you change some lighting in your studio because it's not clearly seen some details of black eyeglasses over the black t-shirt background. :) Thanks.
Thanks for the feedback! Our video team is on it and have been working to make changes to the lighting.
Dead giveaway is when the nose piece is made of ob-tainium.
Lost the left temple arm off my oakley radar. Do they sell the replacement part?
Hi there! Oakley does not sell replacement temple arms for that frame.
Because the customer service sucks
Look on eBay?
I bought a pair and would like to know if it’s suppose to say uk/ca
Hmmm, without saying definitively it could be knockoff. Send a couple pictures of the frames to info@sportrx.com and a licensed optician will review the images and get back to you with an answer!
I bought oakley eyeglass worth of 7k.. 4k for frame and 3k for lense. How should i know if it is real?
Lol, your a fool

Jawbreak model have code number?
Hi there! The Jawbreaker part # starts with OO9290. Thanks for reaching out!
I found a pair of crankcase on side of the road, obviously fell off car,in good condition, inside of lenses has what looks like stress fractures,it could be from sweating,do authentic Oakley lenses do that,the frames r embossed, lenses have polarised etched into bottom left,I'm wondering if their real????
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!
@@sportrxeyewear yes it says polarised 😃
Wondering about the red assembled in USA tag located at the hinge or at the end of the arm.Are these real and where should that tag be?Thanks.
Hi there! There is no specific spot, it can located at the hinge or bottom on the right temple. Thanks for reaching out!
@@sportrxeyewear sorry maybe my question was worded wrong. Let me try again.Will fake oakleys have the assembled in USA tag or not? Thanks
@@howtheheliru Some will depending on the quality of the replica. Not all Oakley frames are made in the USA so you end up having to do alittle research on each frame
@@robertwindom9095 thanks, I landed on the Holston midnight collection. Awesome!
@@howtheheliru also the red tag is new. None of my authentic Oakley's have that. But they're all 3 years or older
Just a tiny thing chaps, when you're showing small detail such as the safety tab on the black box, it's hard to see detail against a black t-shirt!!
I bought a pair of fake oakleys. Would a new set of real lenses fit on the frame?
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. Give us a call or send a photo of your frames to info@sportrx.com for more assistance! 877.289.2999 🙌
What site did you get the 12.00 ones from
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
Wow, Rob! You are full of great ideas. Thanks!
I was thinking the same thing. More close ups please
It sounds like you can appreciate (more than most) our new approach to our videos! It was certainly a learning curve, but we have progressed considerably! Thank you for watching!
Cant. See glasses against black shirt
u 2 have me very worried. i just got my prescription oakley split shots with no box , no paperwork at all, no case, no fiber cloth and im not sure if these are real or not. obtained from local ''eye doctor'' anyone please chime in and let me know if ive been ripped off or not. many thanks for some help.
Hi there! If you send a few photos of the frames to info@sportrx.com an optician will review the images and get back to you with an answer regarding whether they appear to be knockoffs or authentic frames. 👍
I bought Oakley's from my optometrist no box just glasses in an Oakley's pouch. Are they fake?
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
We used to call them Jokleys
The best thing to do is to get your sun glasses at the Oakley store or Macy's places that you know sell real Oakley's.
Or at SportRx!
@@sportrxeyewear yeah that to.
Not the best review from you guys.
The first Turbine version came with square icons. Remember Oakley had square icons on many frames for years.
Sorry for the confusion there! Consider this an updated guide.
Hello bought a pair of Oakley Holbrooks and everything seems real except for one thing which is the warranty card that says... you guessed it
Theu are a legit pair everything in it is Oakley except that little card that says Denver...

Lol ,Tyler is a character! 😂
What about customs being resold on ebay? How do we know if they are real? I am told they don't have the SKU printed on them, the Prizm on the lens (so you can get custom laser etching) nor the sticker on the box...
Hmmm tough to say without an image to reference. Send some photos of the product to info@sportrx.com and a licensed optician will review the images and get back to you asap with an answer!
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. Overall they seem great quality and I know they are polarized. I can see the contrast enhancement so I think it has prism. Do you know why they don’t have the etched prizm p? 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.
I’d rather have the fake ones for less money 💰
all my original oakley's lens peeled from e-wire all the way to fuel cell

Who's the elf and how did he escape the Keebler compound?
Why the hats & glasses inside guys
I’ve seen the real box real bag real paperwork yet the glasses were fake.
I has a surefire m600 light that I sent to surefire. The only way the manufacturer knew it was a fake was the serial number and led when they took the light apart. The box it came in was a 100% perfect copy of the original.
Oh snap so you telling me these sellers are buying the orginal boxes now and selling the fake glasses. Thanks for your post bro, im only gonna buy my oakleys from the store now
I avoid getting the fakes. Only buy mine for the growing collection at my local sun glass hut or go to Dillard's
Damn my old turbines I bought were fake huh. They actually lasted 3 years and the replacement lens worked perfectly. Still have through long-boarding and having them crushed by nephews...so the knockoffs must have been pretty close to the original, I almost prefer them over my real pair of Oakley’s turbine rotor. 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
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.
@@SuperKatayama good to know man 😎
Them foakleys ain’t pushin p Mai boy!
I never had Oakley. I want to buy Deadbolt. I look the prices on Oakley page the are 350€, and i find on other for 200€. I order this for 200€ and they come only i karton box with the bag. Is that normal? No hard box. And i send they back. How i will know the are legit or not? Tnx
Hello! Most Oakley sunglass models come equipped with a microfiber bag that doubles as a cleaning cloth, but not a hard case. There are definitely some fake Oakley frames out there, but check out the link below for tips on how to spot the fakes!

Moral of the story, If you can't tell by the lens alone you overpaid lmao.
Do fake oakley have uv protectión?
That is a great question and a big reason that we wanted to make this video! You simply can't be sure when you're buying them. There are ways you can get them tested if your local optician has a spectrometer, but you're rolling the dice there. Consider that fact that if they're trying to trick you into thinking they're authentic Oakley's, why would they care to spend more money to make sure they are also protecting your eyes from UV exposure?

For $200 I can buy at least 10 pair of the knockoffs in the last me for years and years and you can't tell the difference The store couldn't tell the difference when I show them they couldn't believe it
we also have a term for that its "jokealeys",,
OOoo i like that!
Anyone have a website for fake ones that use paypal? And EMS shipping? Because fuck Luxocitca and paying 200% for a peice of plastic
The sentiment is a little extreme for us, but thanks for commenting!
We would recommend some quality brands before going to knock offs because the chance of knock offs standing up to any sort of wear and tear is unlikely. Maybe start with Suncloud for a range of great styles for a very reasonable price!
www.sportrx.com/shopby/brand-sun_cloud.html
i seen some jawbreakers on amazon for around $150. would those he foakleys ?

Honestly, price alone is not a good indicator of authenticity. You can be confident if you’re buying from an authorized dealer, for certain!
My dog chewed up my oaklys sun glass and my wife bought a new one for me. I instantly new it was fake only because I have had mine for so long. I don't think some one that is new to the brand would ever guessed. They are really good fakes and ironically fits my face better then the real oaklys, but I rather have my old oaklys.
Oh dang, sorry to hear that Eric! If you would like our opticians to verify the authenticity of your frame, send a few photos to info@sportrx.com, and they'll review the images and get back to you with an answer!
My Foakleys was that good i think i might get another pair!.
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 .
All the counterfeiters taking notes 📝😅
If you're a counterfeiter, don't watch this video please
@@sportrxeyewear no worries, my only dilemma right now is deciding which Holbrook model to get! So I've watched way to many videos of yours in a row trying to decide.
I think I need to try them on to really know
Other then the giant label on the box there are not any blatantly obvious problems without a side by side exam. Thicker cord? Really. So for the best value buy a knockoff pair then go to the Oakley website and buy original Oakley lens. I get all the other little differences but really never saw painted frames ever. lol
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
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!
