    Just got my PolorVision yesterday and been trying them around the house a bit. They seem fine, no complaints so far. But I noticed they didn’t come with any kind of pouch or case, which is a bit annoying since I plan to keep them in the car. Does anyone know if they’re supposed to have one or did I just miss it?

    Mine showed up in a plain cardboard box with nothing else inside either. I figured that was just how they ship, cheap packaging and all. For what these cost I would have expected at least a microfiber bag, but apparently that’s not part of the deal.

    I just tossed them in the glovebox loose and after a few weeks they’re still fine, no scratches or anything. The lenses seem tougher than the packaging suggests. Still, I get why it bugs you. Keeping them in the car without any protection feels like asking for trouble eventually.

    Plenty of cheap sunglass pouches out there if you don’t want to risk it. I’d grab one of those before they end up scratched from rattling around.

    Same thing here, just the glasses in a plain box. Kind of annoying for the price but I wasn’t shocked. I just tossed mine in the glovebox loose and they’ve been fine so far. Not going to bother buying a case unless they start scratching.

    That’s a bummer it didn’t come with anything. I was looking at these for my dad and figured they’d at least toss in a soft cloth bag or something for that price. A lot of companies skip the extras to keep costs down, but it would have been nice to have a basic sleeve to stop them getting scratched up in the car.

    They don’t include one. I checked the box twice when mine came and it was just the glasses wrapped in thin plastic. For the price I expected a little more, but honestly most driving glasses in this range skip the case. I just keep mine in the door pocket, they seem tough enough to handle it.

    No pouch, case, nothing. Mine came the same way, just loose in the box. For something meant to live in a car, that’s a dumb oversight. I ended up using a microfiber bag I had lying around, but you shouldn’t have to supply your own basic storage.

    It is a bit cheap that they don’t toss in at least a soft bag. Mine showed up with nothing but the glasses in a box, and I’ve just been leaving them on the passenger seat. I can see them getting scratched up or lost if you’re not careful about where you put them.

    Kinda curious if this varies by retailer or batch or whatever. I haven’t bought a pair yet, but I was leaning toward them mostly because they’re supposed to fit over regular glasses. The no case thing is making me hesitate a little, not gonna lie. I keep my current sunglasses in a hard case in the door pocket, and they’ve survived a couple of years that way. If these are meant to live in the car, bare plastic lenses bouncing around with coins and trash is asking for scratches. I get that they’re not expensive, but a cheap microfiber pouch costs them pennies. Might just grab a generic case off Amazon and call it a day, but it would’ve been nice to not have to think about it. Guess I’ll factor that into the total price before I order.

    Annoying, right? I had the same moment when mine showed up. I actually thought I’d thrown something away with the packaging by accident and went digging through the recycling bin like a maniac. Nope, just the glasses.

    For what it’s worth, I’ve had mine for a couple of months now and I just keep them in the door pocket of my car. They’ve survived so far without any scratches, but I also don’t toss stuff on top of them. If you’re the type to just chuck things in the glovebox, I’d probably grab a cheap microfiber pouch off Amazon or something.

    It does feel like a weird corner to cut though. These aren’t exactly cheap, and a basic sleeve would cost them pennies. But I guess they figured people either have a sunglasses holder or don’t care enough to return them over it.

    I actually think it’s kind of nice that they don’t include a bulky case. I just toss mine in the door pocket when I get out and grab them when I get in. If they came with a hard case it would probably just annoy me taking up space. I get why people want one but it didn’t bother me at all.

    If you keep them in the car, I’d say grab some kind of cheap case anyway, because the lenses will get scratched eventually just sliding around. I remember being mildly annoyed that they skipped the pouch too, but honestly I probably would have lost it in a week anyway. A basic microfiber bag costs like five bucks and does the job.

    The box definitely doesn’t include anything, which caught me off guard too. I actually kept the little cardboard insert it came wrapped in for a while just so the lenses wouldn’t rub against stuff in my glovebox. Kind of wish they’d at least thrown in a microfiber pouch, but I guess it’s not a dealbreaker for me.

    I think they just don’t include one, honestly. Mine came in the box with nothing extra and I didn’t think much of it since I keep them on my visor anyway. Definitely pick up a cheap soft pouch if you’re tossing them in the glovebox though, they seem like they’d scratch pretty easy.

    It is a bit odd they don’t toss one in, especially for the price. I figured they’d at least come with a soft cloth bag. I just ended up using a microfiber pouch I had lying around from an older pair of sunglasses, so it wasn’t a big deal for me.

    I nearly missed it too when mine arrived, so I get the confusion. But no, they definitely don’t include one. I think the packaging is pretty minimal on purpose. For keeping them in the car though, I’d grab something cheap. Even a soft microfiber pouch works, since the lenses are the whole point of these and it doesn’t take much for them to get micro scratches from rattling around in a glovebox or door pocket. The frames seem sturdy enough, but the lenses are what you’re paying for. What I actually found handy was one of those hard sunglass cases from an old pair I had lying around, they fit fine since these aren’t much bigger than regular shades despite the over-glasses design. If you don’t have anything, the cheap pouches on Amazon work fine and take up no space.

    Guess I’ll just grab a cheap sunglass pouch for mine then.
