Original or fake Kaleos glasses: How to recognize them?

Kaleos artists leave clear signs of originality in their pieces. And how can they not? If it takes them about a year and a half to finish each pair of glasses. After so much work, they won't want to make it easy for imitators. That's why here are 4 infallible tips to determine the authenticity of your Kaleos glasses.

4 tips to know if your Kaleos glasses are original

Kaleos glasses are very easy to distinguish, especially for their irreverent and bold style. Every single part of the glasses is manufactured with the utmost detail. The most visible signs of originality are as follows:

Model and brand name

Most eyewear brands put their name on the frames or temples. For Kaleos this is not enough, because they also print on their accessories the name of the model.

For example, on the temples of the Kaleos Saber, the words KALEOS and SABER are clearly distinguished in capital letters and highlighted with filigree. These engravings are laser engraved. Therefore, if your model is original, it will have these words carved with precision.

Serial number and characteristics

With the exception of those glasses whose ergonomics do not allow it, the brand name temples are usually engraved with the serial number and characteristics of the particular model, together with the name and title of the company. 

Some models even have specific phrases engraved on them. For example, most Kaleos women's glasses say A beautiful shape on their temples.

Design exclusivity and certification

Claudia Brotons, creative director of Kaleos, departs from conventional standards when it comes to eyewear design. Instead, copycats make frames with common models to which they imprint the brand name. If your product has this description, it is probably fake.

On the other hand, it is important to take into account the company's accreditation. Kaleos is an emerging company with certificates of authenticity in the form of a book or brochure where the history of the brand is narrated. Imitations lack this detail.

Packaging and distribution

The original Kaleos come in a distinctive case with a cleaning wipe. Both are of good quality and carry the company name.

Too much detail for you? If you want to save yourself all these hassles, be sure to choose your glasses from authorized dealers like Bassol Optics. Don't make the mistake of throwing your money down the drain with imitations.

Why are Kaleos sunglasses in fashion?

Kaleos is quickly gaining a foothold in Europe thanks to its eye-catching designs. Many of the sunglasses are rooted in the stories of Spanish artists or places. For example, one of its latest collections is inspired by stay-at-home mothers and the work of ceramist Marta Bonilla.

Also, as you might expect, the brand's designer keeps up with the latest cultural trends. Her work reflects the shapes and colors of the new stylistic currents present in pop culture and social networks. Therefore, Kaleos glasses are perfect to give an aesthetic touch to your outfit.

A clear example of this is the Jefferies eyewear model, an iconic and unlimited design with only 200 units in stock.

The company enjoys great acceptance in Spain and in particular in Barcelona. However, the brand's goal is to take its success abroad. It has therefore started to work on international projects. One of the latest exhibitions of Kaleos sunglasses was held in Paris in March 2023.
