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

Jet Intake Ports.
Thanks, yes. So I was calling "Gen 2" "1.0" and maybe that is where I have misunderstood as I thought Gen 1 were actually not referred to as 1.0.

I do mean Gen 2, new O-matter and O-logo on ear stems. I just want to learn how to spot fakes and the embossing of "Made in USA" seemed like good thing to look at... Sorry if I'm confusing the thread!

You mean tye Earsocks?
 
So I ordered a pair Oakley Radar Ev Prism Golf from Ebay and I didn't have a great feeling about the authenticity. So I ordered a pair from Amazon sold by Amazon. I don't have a great feeling about these either. I'm not an Oakley pro... I just got contacts and needed a pair of non script sunglasses and wanted to splurge a bit. One was about half the price vs the other...

I tried my best to keep these side by side... Left came with a small pamphlet, a smooth case, and a box that didn't have the "latch". The Which is why my radar is going off. But they did come with the protective sleeve on the arm. The ones on the right came with a big pamphlet, rough case, a box with the "latch" but no protective sleeve.

The lens shapes seem ok when comparing to the post everyone shares.. Both have Prizm on the lower corner, the camera just wouldn't pick it up. They do have different SKU numbers printed on the arms..

I'm hoping I'm wrong.. But I believe someone purchased a real pair on Amazon and returned them with fakes and I got the fakes..

They have changed the boxes and cases somewhat recently. One is probably just older stock than the other.
