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

Okay i see, the flames are really dope but yeah way too expensive. If you tell me that the other one are small then i don’t know. I have a Big face and I don’t want them to feel like toys on me.
Yeahhhh, I’m not trying to discourage you by any means I love seeing people collect and chase their goals in collecting as I’m a huge collector myself. Just giving a heads up is all. I’m about 5’5 not a big guy by any means lol and the frame even fits my face fairly small. Look up some photos of people wearing them and get a good idea of what they look like on someone. A slightly larger but similar pair to the minute would be the Twenty “XX” similar in shape but bigger. Hope this helps !
 
Hey folks. Looking for a legit check on this set of Badman that arrived today.

Some of the things happening on the frames have me seriously doubting their authenticity. I bought them through Vinted in Europe and had them verified en route to me.

Particularly points I’m seeing are the top of the orbital where there seems to be flaking peeling off. Also the frames look slightly different in shading to the ear stems.

Original lenses are Sapphire iridium polarised as seen in images.

Also came with box and the tube case.

My head says they’re legit but the frames are playing with my senses. Maybe a legit box but fake frames?

If legitimate then the quality of these frames is pretty bad if they are peeling the way they are.

I should add the other lenses have been fitted by me.

What do you think?

Look legit to me! Just seems that the previous owner loved them quite a lot or not enough to keep them in a case very often lol just a bit of wear and tear that’s all. Great score!
 
I’ve just seen those one (150) the XX I think, less cool tho. But yeah looks different. The blue flame is a Big one ? Maybe i can have a deal.

Yes the “blue flame” straight jacket is a larger frame compared to the minute or the twenty. The larger alternative to the minute is the twenty. As far as the straight jacket the even larger version would be a Gen 1 Straight jacket or as I consider it the “big hinge” straight jacket. Less sculpted hinge design and bulkier frame overall. Easiest way to tell the two gens apart is the painted icon on generation 1.

Legit. A very worn pair, but Legit. That coating can actually be removed and then polished.
