Official Fakes/Possible Fakes Inquiry Thread (ARE THESE FAKE? POST FAKES HERE)

[karasugenji]

Just purchase this valve gen1 but now I'm having some doubts about authenticity. Seller said it is a custom. First thing no Oakley write in the front. Also the clear lug pieces are not usual for this model.
@Lopaka KaMars any idea?

TBH, it looks very real to me. I've been finding a bunch of clear lugs and just added color to mine. This one looks polished to make more glassy. As far as the text goes, it being missing doesn't mean fake. The previous owner may have scratched the word Oakley up, and decided to do away with it entirely. I don't even know how to replace that text myself. Take a look at the screw that holds the lug to the ear stem. Is it a T5 screw? My guess is it is. because it looks real. Guys making fakes want to make theirs look like production models.

Here's when I started finding those clear lugs.

Valve 1.0 Clear Hinge/Hub question

Aloha OF. 🤙 I thought I had asked this somewhere before but can't find an official question anywhere so hopefully this is the last time. This is about the hinge piece that's between the ear stems and the frame. Is there a particular model that has the clear piece? So far I've run into a couple...

If you still believe it's fake, send to Hawaii for proper disposal. Lol.

I purchased them of of a military guy, I also served and I may serve again in the Ukranian military, so I would like to make sure if these are authentic Oakleys and will actually protect my eyes.
