Inauthentic! Great sunglasses copy, but crappy lenses
These are inauthentic. I own this product but purchased directly from Ray-Ban so I thought it'd be interesting to compare. I'm impressed with how legit these sunglasses look, but the text on the left temples where it says "RB4165" is missing a space between "RB" and "4164" (also the spacing in the text in general looks off). Also, the font for the "POLARIZED" text on the right temple is incorrect; the letters should have serifs.
There are also a few minor issues that give away these are unauthentic too, like that the lenses aren't tightly fitted in the frame, the orientation of the polarization is incorrect by about 45 degrees, the small "RB" authenticity mark on the left lense is not embedded inside the lense (rather, it is a sticker on the back), and the "RB" authenticity mark is too high (vertically) on the lense and too far (horizontally) from the edge of the lense.
Aside from the fact that these are not legit, the polarized lenses are poorly made, and when you hold the sunglasses up to the light, you can see visible line patterns in the lenses. When wearing the sunglasses, the lines are visible too. It's pretty annoying. If you're planning to get these despite them being inauthentic, I'd recommend at least getting non-polarized lenses.
