‘What a steal!’ TK Maxx is flogging £310 Loewe sunglasses for seriously cheaper – but everyone’s saying the same thing
WITH summer just around the corner, it’s time to beef up our sunglasses collection.
But what do you do when you want luxury sunnies without the luxury price tag?
Well apparently, the answer could be to go to your local TK Maxx.
Content creator Totally Frankie recently took to TikTok to reveal a pair of Loewe sunnies she found being flogged for £119.99 in her local store.
“TK Maxx strikes AGAIN,” she said.
“So long as my eye is sharp, I will never lack in this life.”
The exact style is the Loewe LW40091I, which cost £310 full-price.
What’s more, according to retailer’s Pret A Voir, Kendall Jenner was spotted wearing the shiny black frames last year.
Loewe is a Spanish luxury fashion house that’s been making waves in the industry for decades.
Founded in 1846, the brand has a rich heritage that’s reflected in its attention to detail and quality.
Loewe has gained traction in recent years as more celebrities started getting papped in its ready-to-wear collections.
That includes the whole Kar-Jenner clan, Hailey Bieber and in the UK, Molly-Mae Hague and Abbey Clancy.
Frankie’s video has attracted mass attention, but everyone seems to have the same complaint.
Many shoppers believe her discovery at the off-price retailer’s store in Basildon, Essex is just a one-off.
“It’s always a TK Maxx in the middle of the alps,” Hafsa Imani joked.
“I’ve been to this TK Maxx and I never find anything,” content creator Adjoa added.
“I’m going to go again today now.”
Another shopper penned in the comments: “How people find gems will always amaze me.”
Frankie clarified that there was only one pair of the designer sunnies up for grabs, but urged others: “Don’t sleep on the Tottenham Court Road branch.”
TK Maxx purchases excess inventory or overstock directly from designers, brands and manufacturers.
This allows the retailer to acquire authentic designer goods at a reduced cost, which it can then offer to customers at discounted prices.
Its business model revolves around offering customers a treasure hunt experience with constantly changing inventory, including designer items, at prices significantly lower than traditional retail.
