I’ll be going to the LA event! Hoping to pick up a few items to round out my small Loewe x Ghibli collection and also to just to enjoy the experience. If anyone else is going, feel free to dm me— would love to say hi in person!

I haven’t heard anything about pre-ordering items from the Rodeo store before the event though, unfortunately.
I'm also going but no idea how to DM you. If you see me, come say hi. I have pink hair, you can't miss me.

Has anyone seen a dice pocket in person? I’m looking at the dimensions/strap online and doesn’t seem to be long enough for crossbody wear - is this piece functional? I can't find any reviews online about it. Last year’s gate pocket seems much more useful :sad:
 
I saw the monochrome dice pockets in a boutique in December - a tall and not skinny dude had come in looking for a crossbody and he was pointed towards the dice pocket. I think the length of the strap was ok to crossbody on him but the pocket itself seemed a bit too deep for man hands to easily reach in

Found this photo online of the dice pockets! It seems like it’s an ok length for crossbody.
 
I placed a pre-order/got put on the waitlist via the Munich boutique but the SA can‘t guarantee that they will get the item that I am looking to buy. She told me that they will only get about 1/4 of the whole collection in store.
What items are you looking for? Maybe worth trying to find them online

The dice pocket is actually more functional than the gate pocket as it can hold a bit more. The strap is ok for crossbody use for most people but is a bit too short for me (I’m 1.8m tall), which is a common issue for me when it comes to any Loewe item that’s released in the women’s lines and has a fixed (not removable) strap. At least the dice pockets allow you to adjust the length to a certain extent because of the knotted end.

Our SA showed us the dice pockets for this collection over a video call and the details look stunning!

What is RTW?
any idea if there is pop up stores in Japan & Paris? If yes, what is the location?
Apparently the Tokyo pop up is in Omotesando for 7 days only. Frustrating as we are in Japan now but seems like it is reservations only to visit the pop up and is done over Line, and only for Japanese Line accounts. Been trying very hard to even try to get to the official Loewe JP Line account but it simply has not been possible….

Is RTW not as popular as other items and why?
RTW is generally not cheap and sizing will always be incomplete at any store, so it’s actually not very easy to get something you like in your size at times. While a bag can be a “forever piece”, RTW has a much shorter lifespan and does not hold as much resale value either.
