Imitation Oakleys
From LoveToKnow Sunglasses
Imitation Oakleys are a good way to get an expensive look for just a little bit of cash. As long as you know what you're getting and you aren't paying Oakley prices for fakes, and as long as you're using them for fashion rather than impact resistance, there's nothing wrong with a pair of imitations.
About Imitation Oakleys
You may see them referred to as imitation Oakleys, Faux-kleys, knockoff Oakleys, replica Oakleys, and so on, but the bottom line is this: They are designed to look like the more expensive Oakleys out there. They are also ideal for the fashion-conscious men and women out there who'd love the look without worrying about the price connected to the technology that makes them safe eyewear for sports enthusiasts and military personnel.
Genuine Oakleys are thoroughly tested to stand up to intense situations. They're designed to give you superior clarity and protection. Can the makers of imitation Oakley make those claims? Maybe not. However, if you're wearing your Oakleys to lounge on the beach or walk around downtown, a pair of inexpensive imitations with 100 percent UV protection made with plastic or polycarbonate (possibly polarized) lenses should work fine.
Purchase Your Imitations
You may have a store in your local mall where you can purchase imitation Oakleys. If you don't, there is always online shopping. Just make sure that you ask questions before purchasing if everything you want to know is not in the product description box. Never skip the 100 percent UVA/UVB protection. Other options depend on personal preference. Try to find your perfect pair at:
- Fake Oakleys: Here, you can find replicas based on specific Oakley styles, like the Oil Drum, the Canteen, the Juliet, the C-Wire, the M-Frames, the Square Wire 2.0, the Half Jacket 2.0, the Splice, and more. Expect to pay between $14.95 and $22.95. For every two pairs you order from this site, you get an extra pair for free, but they will never have a silver or black frame. Wholesale ordering is available. Be sure to check the warranty and the return policy before ordering.
- Replica Images: You can find Oakley replicas like the A-Wire, C-Wire, E-Wire, Eyejacket, Half Jacket, Splice, Romeo, Scar, Canteen, and more. Also, for every two pairs you order here, you get a free pair. You can let them know which pair you would prefer when you check out. Many of the styles have multiple frames/lenses combinations from which to choose, so you can get just the look you're after. Expect to pay between $19.95 and $24.95.
- Overlimitz is a site worth checking out if you are interested in ordering wholesale imitation Oakleys. Their minimum order is $500.00 and they give discounts for the $1000.00 and $2000.00 marks. If you're looking for a single pair of replicas for yourself, this probably will not be the place for you.
- Sunglasses Box: The owners of this site update their content weekly. Expect to pay between $22.99 to $35.00 on styles like replica C-Wires, Half Jackets, A-Wire, Juliet, Mag Switch, Splice, and more. The site is easy to navigate if you're looking for a specific replica. You can click on the model name to narrow it down to just the style you want.
A Final Word
Imitation Oakleys are the fashion-conscious individual's answer to looking good without spending the money on genuine Oakley sunglasses. As long as you're not wearing them for their performance, imitations, replicas, and knockoffs can be a great way to save money while looking like you splurged. Always make sure to check the return policy along with the warranty in case the sunglasses you get aren't exactly what you were hoping for.
