  • In this video I go through the specific differences between a pair of real (authentic) and fake (counterfeit) Pit Vipers. The model I compared was The Absolute Freedom Polarized Double Wide (amzn.to/3MY0W6m)
    *PIT VIPER NOW SELLS AUTHENTIC GLASSES ON AMAZON. HERE IS THEIR STOREFRONT: amzn.to/3Q2GmUJ
    PLEASE CHECK PIT VIPER'S WEBSITE FOR MORE DETAILS ON COUNTERFEITS:
    www.pitviper.c...
    All AUTHENTIC Pit Vipers have a code on one of the ear bands as well as text of where they are made As of 2020 Pit Viper updated the earpieces on the Originals (now called Single Wides) as well as the Double Wides - they now have the rubber coating for extra comfort and a hole for a strap to wrap around your head for security!
    *The authentic Single Wides and Double Wides are made in China. The 2000s are made in Taiwan.

    *UPDATE PLEASE READ*
    Pit Viper now sells on Amazon: amzn.to/46xdmcv
    *COUNTERFEITS*
    Some counterfeiters are adding a code to the earpieces! Make sure you are aware of all the other differences between real and fakes so you don't get SCAMMED!
    As of 2020 Pit Viper updated the *standard earpieces* on the Originals (now called Single Wides) and Double Wides - they now have the *rubber coating* for extra comfort and a *hole* to add a strap for security!
    Also, as of 2021 Pit Viper has updated the glasses which now have a *PV logo* on both sides of the outer arm. The design of the plastic boxes is different as well - now displaying the model name in big colored text.
    Check more info from Pit Viper's website here: www.pitviper.com/pages/counterfeits
    P.S. the counterfeiters are making new styles regularly and trying to match the real Pit Viper styles. Be aware of this so you don't get scammed!

      I have like 6 pair of real Pit Vipers and I do work with them daily in landscaping. They are tough glasses, but will scratch easily just like anything else so always store them in their “limp cloth”. Also I was cleaning my Leonardo’s with water and a regular towel and it caused the film on the outside of the lens to start coming off in chunks. They sent me a new pair thankfully, but said to only clean with a microfiber towel and that water can sometimes cause issues with the lens. So, word to the wise.

      The earpieces and nose piece is much higher quality and rubber around the ears, and the adjustments on the sides are both easier to adjust and stay in place better. The lenses themselves are a bit higher quality and have less distortions. But if you are truly just going for looks most people won't know the difference especially at a distance.

      The fakes are very poor quality. The teeth for the Turbo adjustment will become marred very quickly if played with and therefore will be very loose.
      The real ones are much better quality and hold up significantly well. Plus if you buy directly from Pit Viper, you will be able to get them replaced for free if they break. Also keep in mind that as of 2020 the real ones have the upgraded rubber earpieces which feel a lot better!
