Consider the overall quality of the glasses. The sunglasses and the packaging should be of high quality. If the sunglasses are flimsy or lightweight, they may be fake. New authentic sunglasses usually come in nice packaging with tags and casing included. Fake sunglasses may be sold with low quality packaging or with only a slip cover.
Checking the quality of the glasses is particularly important if you are buying previously owned glasses which may not come in their original packaging.
Most quality brands usually etch their company name or brand initials in the lenses. Try scratching these off with your fingernails. If it easily comes off, it's fake. It there's no logo at all, it's also a fake. Beware of branded stickers, tags or even logos drawn on with a brush. If you've already purchased sunnies from a particular brand, you should know what to look for.

Real designer sunglasses should open and close effortlessly. In other words, not too tight or floppy. The hinges should be solid, and have quality moulding.
