First fake JFLs I have seen in the wild. Ebayer trying to get 129.00 for them. Shameful. Confirm?

Welcome to the forum.
Wow, what a horrible replica of a JFL!

Hey everyone, I am new here and was hoping to get some advice on a pair of Woodland camo Valves I picked up on ebay.

First off the lens is shallow blue polarized. My eyes are easily visible through the lens. Sometimes I see this pair listed as shallow blue iridium polarized. Are these two different lenses?

Secondly there is an etching of a deer on the lens. On O-review the model doesn't have the deer etching but the standard polarized etching. Does anyone know why there are two different etchings for this model?

Lastly , on the ear stem is made in USA. Ive never seen it on other model socks before and have other model valves and it is not on them. I cant find it on any pictures on the web of this model either. Its not on the pic on O-review either. Do you think they are legit.

They seem to be to me. They are well made, came with box and papers and camo microbag. Just had these questions and was hoping someone could answer them.

Many thanks

I'll let someone else speak to the valve's authenticity but regarding your question of shallow blue polar / shallow blue iridium polar being the same, yes they are. I also have that lens in a different frame and yes, the blue iridium is subtle and your eyes can be seen. Nice contrast for less-bright conditions, like a wooded area...

All of the stock pictures have the polarized etching, but if you look at any pictures of the actual item they have the deer etching. I do not have that colorway, but the frame, serial and lenses all look good. I'd say legit.

Compared these half jacket 1.0's with my others and these have no Oakley across the nose and no serial /model numbers written on the inside. Everything else looks identical.

Think they're good but want expert opinion.

Look like SI HJ that don't have the printing across the bridge
