It’s a shame eBay doesn’t have verification on all name brand items. Their shoe authentication program is great. However I turned this pair and another in as being counterfeit and got responses back on both saying they found nothing wrong. If someone was going to lose $50 bucks or so on these then it’s less of an issue but this and a couple of others are well into close to real price with dozens of bids. Someone is getting robbed. FAKE

Invariably, (with maybe one exception in the 13 years I've been using O.F.),if the nose bridge Text Icon is well proportioned throughout(same thickness), and 'crisp', they're genuine.

They've worked out (only taken them over two decades), that the earstems don't point out. But still haven't worked out, it's the inverse!!!! Still, for collectors at least, still like 'shooting fish in a barrel'!

I should mention build quality, more for the pieces from 1985 - 2015ish. You don't have gaps on them, it's tight fitting, clicks when in position. This is how things were, for the majority of customers, if they had a problem, a very large percentage, would leave satisfied.
