Can Packaging Reveal Fake Sunglasses? Lets Find Out [Infographic]

Sunglasses were designed to protect our eyes, from dust and harsh sunlight, but they have become more than just an eye protective gear. They are also considered as a style statement. Some people are very passionate about the sunglasses, and are ready to pay hefty amounts of money. Sometimes we get conned into buying fake sunglasses and end up paying the amount of the original, it very upsetting to find an item that is not genuine, and of poor build quality.

It is observed that most times fake sunglasses are sold without proper packaging. Street hustlers and even some stores try to pass off counterfeited sunglasses as original on the pretext of being custom seized, smuggled, company rejects or stolen. If you are not aware of the actual brand packaging, then there’s very little you can do to ascertain the authenticity of such items. However, knowing about the correct packaging and branding can help you spot a fake because counterfeiters can’t usually replicate the exact packaging. TheOpticShop, UK has prepared a infographic guide on how to spot fake sunglasses of major brands like Ray-Ban, Oakley and Gucci which might just help you save your hard earned money while protecting your style and your eyes.
