Authentic OEM Ear Socks with no “CE”?

OXM is not making socks himself. The stuff he's selling is also OEM.
Need to correct this -- on occasion I come across new old stock OEM ear socks and I sell those (am currently sold out). The Ear Socks on the OXM website marked "OXM" are aftermarket production -- however, I went to the extreme to get both the proper size, proper markings exactly like OEM and a high grade moisture wicking rubber that will perform like OEM.

Like OEM socks, you'll need some lube to get them on the ear stems (I use Purell Gel hand sanitizer for this).

Also, another poster is correct that some older Romeo 1 ear socks that the reps had in their kits did not have any markings on them.

My title of non-expert is once again proven to be correct.

Thank you very much for the clarification. Everything makes perfect sense now.
I’ll tell you one thing, I ordered from OXM, a seller on eBay and Linegear all around the same time. The OXM package came 6 days before the eBay seller and Linegear took 13 days longer then the OXM. The only reason I ordered from Linegear was because OXM didn’t have the Orbital Screws I needed, unfortunately the ones I waited to get from Linegear didn’t match OEM so I won’t use those. I ended up ordering new screws off an eBay seller and they will work.
I will be using OXM for all my Oakley needs as long as they have what I’m looking for. I’ll be checking with OXM first though because it’s easy, good quality and gets to me with a quickness.
