Yep, sold out now.
At just £12 the case itself was nearly worth it. Still for sale plenty of places online elsewhere at £85 to £125. I need a prescription really but can easily get away without. I’m always getting caught out transferring my prescription glasses car to car so although I wasn’t going to buy these when I saw them last night, I did decide at lunchtime just to grab a pair to leave in the d4. Almost disposable at that price so something better than nothing and from reading the specs elsewhere it seemed a reasonable quality lens. Elsewhere it said they were polarised but didn’t mention that on TKM. Not famed for their descriptions to be fair. Hope so - polarised is a must for me usually
Wee update - got them
Good news - they were polarised! Fit great, good shape. Case is comparable in quality and style with my Oakley’s. Brillliant spec for £12, still with original £125 tags on
‘Hmmm’ news - Mirrored effect. Not heavily so but not how it looked in pictures and I’m not sure if I like it . Hoping it will grow on me…Corris Grey SDV6 D4 2015 HSE

Mine arrived this morning. UV400, polarised and pretty good quality. Subtle grey tortoiseshell effect frames, light and comfortable to wear, and the mirroring on the lenses is some way short of being "Gangsta!" They cut out a lot of light too and were a bargain at £12. My pair had been marked down to £29.99 on the shop label, but still a good buy in my view.

Even at £12 these were overpriced. TKMaxx don’t do bargains. Can’t believe people fell for this.

In fairness I’m gutted at missing out…. Had two pairs in my basket at midnight but couldn’t be bothered to go downstairs to find my wallet to pay for them….
By the morning they had all gone… that’ll teach me for being a lazy bar steward…

Really?
Where do you shop that UV400 rated Polarized sunglasses with a ballistic case are ‘overpriced’ at £12??
I would never have touched these at £150, or £125 or actually I doubt even at the original £29.99 that TK Maxx had marked them down to …just because they had a Land Rover badge ……. But overpriced at £12? Corris Grey SDV6 D4 2015 HSE
