Hi Jono
What kInda things should you look for to spot fake frogs????
I'm not Jono but I'll chime in with my experience. You can spot a fake a ton of ways:
- Fakes do not use O-Matter for the frames and feel much lighter than real Frogskins
- The colour of the frame is not exactly the same as real versions (particularly the Grenades are a darker olive/green from what I've seen, the Rootbeers are darker, the Purple Clears are darker, and the Marine Fades are darker - however, they are getting better.)
- The finish quality is not as good, particularly the logo on the earstems, the colour finish doesn't go all the way to the edge/is messy on the raised Oakley logo
- The model numbers printed on the inside of the earstems will not match the model number on real versions
- The lenses are normally bigger/won't fit real Frogskins frames
- The microbags will not have a quality finish/stiching is loose
- The warranty/paperwork has spelling mistakes on it
- The printing on the back of the box has spelling mistakes in it
- The box does not come with a sticker with the barcode, SKU number, and production date on it
- Some have an 'Authenticity' card but Frogskins never come with an authenticity card
- Some have a cleaning cloth in addition to the microbag, but Oakley never issue cleaning cloths with Frogskins
