I recently purchased a set of "SI" Industrial M Frame 2.0s with Z87+ stamped clear HDO lenses off of Amazon (Fulfilled/sold by Amazon themselves and listed as an "Amazon's Choice" Item). However, as soon as I got them out of the box a few red flags came up.
The box didn't immediately raise any concerns, but let it be known I've never purchased an Oakley SI product before, so I didn't know what to expect.
First red flag, I did not see any Z87+ markings on the lenses themselves. The "cling" on the lenses was the only indication. There was no Z87.1 marking at the top by the "lock" nor on the edges as I had seen online on other sites selling SI products. In addition, the "micro-clear" bag felt different, lacked an Oakley HDO tag, and the draw string was black. It took a bit of effort to even get the M frames in the bag.
The frames seem to have all the right printing on the (UL Rating, etc) however it only has "Z87" and not Z87.1 molded on the arms... The instruction sheet also strongly recommended that the user apply "Anti-Fog" solution which is supposed to be included. My set did not include any solution.
So is this set a fake or were there just some production changes that weren't reflected in older file photos used by other sites?
