Luxotica products are made in china and they are priced with the labor costs of Germany.

Ayaw namo pailad anang oakleys ug raybans - made in china nana sila and worst, the quality follows!

Hahahaha, mura ni akong boss sauna... Who would question if he's wearing a knock-off Rolex & Hublot, when his driving either one of his 2 BMWs.. Only a select of people that would notice it.. Basta di lang sad suoton kada adlaw daw.. hehehehe

When I asked how much is his knock-off Rolex, atot, tag 20K man sad. Naay suki siya sa HOngkong nga grabeh jud kono ka-pulido ang trabaho. Pero select customers ra pud ang pangtagaan.. And the golds are 18-21k pud jud daw ang plating... Grabeh jud ang china karon.

murag mao man gyud guro ni kasagaran buhaton sa mga company mga bro ug sis, kato gani akong gitrabahoan sauna sa Cebu mohimo pure leather nga bag then ang mopalit na ang mobutang sa brand.

Hasta kanang mga perfume usahay magkapareha ra sad na ilang supplier.

So ang atong gibayran gyud ug mahal ang kasikat sa brand.

Still have my Rudy Project Rydon for 5 years now. No complains so far. Quality of the frame and lens is very good. I can say this was worth the purchase. Oakleys are too expensive ra man sad oi, roughly the same quality of lends and frame sa RP. All other brands are shlt, your just buying the brand name. Ray-Bans have not had any "innovations" for the past few years, kung naa man gani recycled ra sad, nothing new. Sticking to Rudy Project. AFAIK, worth the price.
