Every decent seller of genuine sunglasses is alarmed by the number of eBay members who sell fake sunglasses. There’s more to that, many of these replica vendors have a feedback value of over 90%. There are a few well known techniques used by these vendors to raise their reputation, for example they can sell a few hundreds e-books for a cent or two each. It’s being addressed by eBay at the moment. For now they just get away with ripping people off. So I thought to help you in avoiding bidding for replicas on eBay. If you follow my tips you will greatly minimize the chances of buying a fake.
1. Most official resellers who sell genuine sunglasses would let you know that what they are selling is authentic. So look for guaranteed authenticity.
2. Brand new sunglasses are always packed in a box and supplied with cleaning back and warranty card. Don’t trust any seller who doesn’t provide those items. The one and only case a seller can lack some of these items is when the sunglasses are not brand new and that cant be a good deal anyway. The vendor is highly unlikely to have a good explanation in any other situation.
3. Authentic sunglasses package usually has labels on every item supplied in it. For example Oakley has the “Genuine O Software” label sewn on the cleaning box.
4. Since many fraud sellers are aware of what a buyer is going to look at first, they try to either fake a box supplied or use a box from a different model. Check the barcode to match the sunglasses. I’ve seen many replicas packed in original boxes, which had barcode labels torn off.
5. Another good replica indicator is the price. It shouldn’t be far away from the average eBay value. For example, usually Oakley sunglasses are sold for over 50 USD. Anything below this price should be treated more carefully. (more…)
Ask any surfer dude and they will have a whole wardrobe of surf clothing. From Hawaiian style shorts (ooh, I’ll be hung for that one!) to flip flops (commonly known as thongs, but I always thought that was something different).
Rash vests are lightweight T shirts that prevent nipple rash. Nipple rash is a painful condition that nobody wants to boast about and, let’s face it, you look a complete wally with plasters over your nipples if you don’t use protection.
Surf clothing is often worn by young people, whether they are surfing or hanging out at the beach, cafe, bar, sofa or bed. Rolling from the bed to the beach without having to change clothes saves valuable surfing time. It apparently means they never have to wash their hair too – matted hair is part of the look.
Long shorts that your granddad would be proud to be seen in and a tight T shirt that would probably fit an inmate from the local nursery are standard surf clothing for men and women. Flowers are a particular favourite emblem for decoration and it’s also the done thing to mix strange colours together i.e brown and green or brown and pink or sky blue orange with purple flowers.
Footwear also comes under the genre of surf clothing. Without the right footwear your outfit is wasted. A simple decision on what flip flops to wear, it is not. There are various thickness soles, garish colours and oversized flowers. It makes no odds that once on, all you can see is the 3mm of rubber strapping your feet and causing a groove between your toes you could park your bike in. It’s all about having the ‘right’ flip flops. (more…)
From time to time as I was growing up it was ok to wear cowboy boots once every 10-15 years as the fashion industry decided they needed something else to sell that year. Now that trend has all but disappeared and it is ok to wear them anywhere boot appropriate. Lets take a detailed look at finding that right pair of functional fashionable boots.
The initial thing to remember is that you want the boot to fit right after you have had it a while. The trick to getting a boot that is going to fit you comfortably 3 months after you buy it is to remember that it will expand a little and so you want to purchase the cowboy boots to be a little bit smaller than you would normally wear so that when they do stretch you will have a perfectly fitting boot that moves with you.
The next thing to consider is what kind of hide do you want to have your boots made of. This can be a strong determinate in the cost of the boots as well as how well they wear and feel. Some skins can actually be rare while some may seem so but in reality they are not that hard to come by. Consider carefully and let your boot advisor help you.
Number three in our list is the process of breaking in your boots. This has to be done slowly as shortcuts to try to do so quickly can damage the boots and actually break the skin or the sole. Just take your time and know that they are going to be uncomfortable for a while and when you are done you will have boots that will comfortably service you for a long time as well as look good.

Humans have been protecting their eyes for thousands of years. Protective eyewear has come a long way from when the Inuit of North America cut holes in caribou antlers in order to protect their eyes from snow blindness. Goggles and sunglasses are now designed to protect the wearers eyes from all kinds of dangerous intrusions, both small and large. And increasingly, protective eyewear is designed overwhelmingly as a fashion accessory.
Sunglasses: protecting your eyes, and making them look good at the same time
The primary purpose of sunglasses is to protect your eyes from the harmful ultraviolet radiation given off by the sun. Exposure to ultraviolet radiation can have dire consequences to the health of your eyes, causing problems as diverse as cataracts, photokeratitis, and even a number of eye cancers such as retinoblastoma or melanoma. Fortunately, well made sunglasses can provide adequate protection against the development of all of these problems. The trick for consumers is to find sunglasses that actually provide the desired protection. In order to ensure that you are getting the protection you think you are getting (or that the sunglasses claim to provide), be sure to look for some sort of identifying mark on the sunglasses that shows that the sunglasses have meet the required government regulations for protective standards.
Of course, the great thing about sunglasses is that they can be completely functional and at the same time be completely fashionable. Although there are already a myriad of good reasons why everyone should be wearing sunglasses, the health benefits of wearing sunglasses are well proven and conclusive, and if you have ever tried to drive into the sun you will recognize the importance of using sunglasses to block out the glare. On the other hand, it is good enough for some people to wear sunglasses just because they make them look good. Indeed, sunglasses have an uncanny ability to make anyone immediately cooler just by putting them on.
Sunglasses were first introduced in the 19th century as protective eyewear. It was not until sunglasses were first mass produced and sold to the masses in the 1950s on the beaches in Atlantic City that sunglasses entered the fashion mainstream. Since that time, sunglasses have been a highly sought after accessory, a must have item for any day at the beach. With hipsters like James Dean in the 1950s, sunglasses cemented their image as a cool fashion accessory. Sunglasses became more refined in the 1960s with the oversized styles of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and Katherine Hepburn. It says something about the quality of these styles that current fashions are turning back the clock to the original designs. Oversized sunglasses are currently very popular amongst women, and men are even turning back to aviator sunglasses first introduced in the 1930s for American pilots. (more…)
