I have the susuwatari shoes from the Totoro collection. I found a picture online. It’s a different design and sewn, so nothing like the sneakers this year.

I also attached the kaonashi hoodie I received a few days ago and already been worn. I love the sky print at front with surprise of kaonashi print at the back.
I received the bo intarsia sweater today! The weight is substantial and the size is very very oversize. This is the XS and already looks gigantic. It's definitely a special piece though and I'm looking forward to wearing it while winter lasts.
I got this pair too and it's holding up very well. With the new sneakers this year, regardless of all complaints about the pink star, I don't have issue with that. I wore the sneaker shoes about 5 times and enjoyed them a lot! For me shoes, as are other items, are meant to be used and worn so I'm not super picky about it.I have the susuwatari shoes from the Totoro collection. I found a picture online.

I agree that all items are meant to be used and worn but there's also a certain level of quality expectations when it comes to luxury products - if not what's the point of paying the premium over a pair of regular brand sneakers? I'm a huge proponent of using everything that we get but if the stars are peeling and potentially falling off that lies way outside the realm of regular use/ wear and tear.I got this pair too and it's holding up very well.

Thanks for sharing his quote. At the first glance of both Chihiro hammock as well as this sweater, I was not at all interested in neither! But they kind of grew on me. I always enjoy all Loewe pieces and not exclusively the studio Ghibli collections.
Even though the frog flamenco is a "mini clutch" I can still fit a surprising amount in it:The Chihiro hammock has grown on me too, so it's a good thing (for my bank account ...) it's out of stock! Although I tried a regular design in the shop and had mixed feelings - I love it in general but I'm not sure I love it on me. It looks great hand held with the 'flaps' out, but I liked it less with sides tucked in and the shoulder strap on, which is how I'd be more likely to carry it.
I did like the size though. Loewe's 'small' is not that small, which is good for someone like me. I'm a large person and I always carry a lot; YouTubers are often these tiny models going over how many lipsticks fit in their nanobags and I'm like OK but can I bring my book?

It closes and I can even cinch the 'arms' in a little. I can also get a regular round half litre water bottle or my largest wallet in there, though obviously not with everything above. It's a great size, although I also have my eye on the next size up (still called 'clutch', but filed under 'medium' on the website ... they have one in the same blue as my Bo puzzle, I love it).
This is honestly one of my favourite pieces in the whole collection because the way Aogaeru was integrated into the design of the bag is just *chef's kiss. I was really quite tempted to get it but only one piece seemed to have come into Singapore throughout (bought by a Japanese lady during the preview we had), and it really is a challenging bag for me to style (as a guy) and I didn't want it to end up being a white elephant. I much preferred this design over the soot sprite one (which I felt just worked better on the puzzles)!!
