They are fake, the RB etching is rough and can be felt. On a real pair I own (bought from Ray Ban online directly) the RB is impossible to see unless you look hard for it, and is smooth to the touch. This is because they are laser etched. The RB etching on this Amazon pair is so crudely done, I'm going to return this product as soon as possible. These are 10 dollar fakes sold at a markup. People who are saying these are authentic have either never owned an authentic pair or are paid reviews. Buyer Beware.
