you can usually spot the fake Jawbones by looking for the little foam/rubber pads in the upper channel that help hold the lenses in place, fakes won't have them. the little "O" icons will fall out pretty quickly...
also pretty much all the fake Jawbones will have Livestrong branded ear pads no matter what color they are, as far as i know the real livestrong ear pads were only made in yellow?
i'm no expert, but i did end up with a pair of fauxkleys from a seller on the forum here a year or so ago, we did come to a fair agreement as they're actually not bad sunglasses. i won't be having anyone shoot a bb gun at them to test or anything, but they do work as sunglasses, and fit/finish is pretty good for fake. everyone who sees them thinks they're legit (not that it matters - i like the look and the ease of lens changes)
