Ultra fake!
There's three obvious reasons, I knew:
1) INSTANT TELL THE SHODDY NOSE BRIDGE ICON TEXT WAS NEVER PUT ON ANY X-METAL.
2) The earstems(arms) aren't found of XX X-Metals, they're only found on the X-Squareds
3) The jet intake where the Bolts go aren't solid, but 'split'
4) The screws are meant to be Torx bolts
I know that's four, I just couldn't be arsed to change it.......Last edited:
Early X-Metal / Black Iridium.
everything you have posted so far has been fake, either find a more reputable source or do some homework first.
Legit or fake Warden frames? Cross-post from the /r Oakley subreddit. Links are to the eBay listings with the frames in question, more images are posted there.

Legit or fake Warden frames?
There are a couple of eBay listings with multiple silver and pink camo Warden frames for what seems like an excellent price (~$45-50 US range). Logos look right, and the outward curve of the arms when viewed from above/below is a distinguishing feature of Wardens. I have owned 3x silver Wardens with the square O logo and 1x olive green with the full "Oakley" name logo on the arms, but I have very little experience authenticating Oakleys generally. These look good as far as I can tell, but I prefer to inquire anyway since input is available.
Seller accounts both have 100% feedback rating, FWIW, both controlled by the same person (they confirmed it when asked). My interest is only in the silver ones. I wouldn't say it's quite in the realm of too good to be true, but the legitimate auctions for complete silver Wardens seem to go for more like $150+, so it feels like caution is warranted. They quoted $25 shipping from Australia to the US, which is substantial for a single $50 item, but I would consider buying all of them (possibly for lower price/frame) and combining shipping if legit.
These have been listed for a little while and haven't sold out, which leads me to think that either they aren't legit or the price isn't actually as good as it seems. From my limited experience with the Oakley market, it seems that Wardens aren't a highly collected model, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's just not a good deal after all. However, they may be selling at least some because there were 6 total between both listings a couple days ago (4 on 1, 2 on the other) but it's down to 4 now, meaning either they sold or the seller altered the listing. I'm OK with after market lenses for personal use.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
The only thing that's a bit weird is the slotted screw for the hinge. All mine have Phillips screws for those, similar to what you see in the pink camo frame in the auction.
I only own trigger and Stretchline pairs though and the Square O frame was the last version made so maybe they did some small tweeks in the generation.
Everything else looks OK.
