It was quite an ordeal last year. I won the raffle to purchase via my work email, purchased items but didn't realise I was logged into my normal Loewe account, and everything got cancelled the next day. Then, my friends and I were scammed by a Malaysian personal shopper who took our money for the Totoro collab pieces she said she could obtain for us, then sent me a single extremely fake puzzle wallet a month after ghosting me. Painful experience and cost us over S$3,000 in total... She was operating what seemed to be a legit personal shopper business since 2016 with plenty of testimonials but I guess COVID disrupted her ability to travel and purchase the items herself. We speculate she probably got scammed by her contacts in Europe who never actually sent her the items. So I will be trying again this year through the official channels (we also managed to get a regular SA at the flagship here in the ensuing year) and the raffle, but if it doesn't happen, it doesn't happen...

Think we met the same personal shopper too... :sad:

Anyway, anyone knows the pricing for the soot sprites SLGs? :love:

Oh dear! It was such a bad thing to happen and I just feel sad when I find out there are more victims!

I don't have the price for the cardholder but the coin cardholder is S$690 and the wallet is $1,100. I think it's quite similarly priced to the usual limited edition releases.

Do we assume any time listed on the Loewe site is CET? They updated that front page "Register now" section to say "our latest collaboration opens at 11am on January 6". But adding to my Apple calendar using the provided link gives something really goofy - 5pm on Jan 6; adding to Google calendar is even worse - 2am CET on Jan 7.

I noticed that for this collection, most if not all of the items I liked had the soot sprites. Here’s some pics from Instagram of three things that I’m really liking.

Ah okie thanks! I asked a SA about the release and was told no reservations, so I guess I've got to camp on launch day... Not VIP enough haha.

Same! I managed to snag the caramel/brown puzzle, as well as a scarf with Boh on it. The puzzle is small and it's black and caramel on the other side, which is pretty cool and low-key. I wanted to get the blue Flamenco, but the pictures they've released makes it look like it's blue in some pics, and mint green in others, so the SA said that she'll send me pics as soon as she gets them in store.

I think it depends on the store - but I had a chance to see the full collection of products (and pre-order) on a list. The images were small though.

I went to ask at my local Loewe concession store (inside department store), the SA showed me some items and I was able to pay in full. She said to collect on 7th. I got the soot bag charm and no face black cardholder. They didn’t have the brown Soot rectangular zip card wallet so I went to the stand alone store to enquire. They were more restrict told me to come back on 7th then I told them what the other store offered me so was able to pay for item in full. I’m done with 3 items now (hopefully)

Oh that's so lucky! The Loewe store that I went to didn't get any items yet.

A lot of the available soot charms were already paid in full, as well as the no face coin purse that I wanted, so now I'm waiting for the drop online.

Yes my partner bought this. I was also telling him it holds nothing, but is a very unique bag. The initial look book images seemed to suggest there were two candy stars on the strap and the top loop is removable, but the actual design has no stars and is a fixed strap. Honestly the drop is a little too short for us to wear crossbody (we are both around 180cm tall) and I was kind of advising him against it but he was too enamored with the way it looked. Haha.

It's definitely a mint green like the other soot sprite SLGs - I believe that there are only two flamencos, one is the mint green soot sprite one and the other is the purple frog one.

I think that while the bag looks cute, it is way too small for me. And to be honest I just don’t see myself carrying anything that out there, HAHA. I’m a little on the boring side.

IMO the bags are too expensive to have a ‘cartoon’ logo. Though very cute! I opted to get a bag charm can use when I get a classic Loewe puzzle bag

Do you have more than one store in your area? That’s a shame, I don’t think there’s rules so stores just want to make a sale hence those who know rack up the products before launch
