Did anybody buy a configured/personalized pendant/charm?

The pins have quite long screws so it feels pretty secure I think - though who knows with these things… I’m really not entirely convinced by the concept and it gets pricey really quickly. The way they have styled it in the look book - the pink font tote with six or seven pins - means the pins cost more than the bag itself. LOL

Oh interesting. I will try to take a look at them in store. Hope they have any in stock in store to try on. I thought they might be cute on the puzzle or Hammock strap. But also just saw the photo with the straw bag.

So the pins are not sharp and you need pre-existing holes in the item to be able to use the pins with. So the pins only work with the customization strap specifically because there are two holes in it for the pins to go through. The raffia bags clearly won't have this issue given the nature of the raffia.

Ah, i was hoping it fit those holes on the original strap (e.g. that one near the carabiner hook). Do you think those are too small then?

I believe these should be fine! I was trying the ant pin though and it's extremely extremely fiddly and difficult to screw in. The chameleon and the others aren't as "bad" though and seems quite secure.

And he's with you, I guess :biggrin: I never find these special little cute things. Unfortunately, it seems like the German site has not much to select from anytime I go there.

From personal experience different stores prominently display or don't display their charms. Beverly Hills has a rack on the dice table and the table is right by the entrance. SoHo had nothing displayed and you had to know to ask for the charm drawers, I was digging around for the bee charm and the number of other patrons expressing surprise that Loewe even made charms seemed like a big oversight.
