Wow this is inspiring me to start a Loewe shearling collection!! I never saw the sheep before, gosh I love it!There are bunny and sheep shearling bags from the past collections. This was my photo from the HMC thread.
All of my Japan orders have shipped so fast and already delivered. However it will take a while to come to US. I can't wait to get all the bear items. The RTWs are so much cheaper in JPY so I also ordered the scarf coat.View attachment 5896376
Which color scarf coat? The scarf coat is incredible I'm so glad you got it. Please share photos when you receive it! We all need to live vicariously through you!
JP prices are seriously good. I was checking and they're about the same as UK prices which both are only a tiny markup from the SP/EU price. Pro tip for those of you that have an address to ship to in Japan or are visiting! Also stock availability will be different (i.e., the penguin puzzle tote is sold out online in US, but still available in JP)

I got it in dark grey, although the lemon color is really cute too but it might be too stand out in the crowd. I agree that the availability of the items seems to be more in Japan. I would seriously think of flying there to check out all the items and candy shops if I was not already going on a trip somewhere else. How obsessed.
Stopp you have an enticing idea. I'm going to Asia soon, so it wouldn't hurt to go to Japan for a day right?.... LOLL. Jk jk it will be gone by the time I go.

Gosh I need to go into store to see the shiny calfskin sometime. Is it like the satin calfskin? Like it feels like they're cutting corners again on material?
I think not needing more clothing is a poor excuse not to get the guinea fowls btw. Like imagine this set together! (Attached, but It's brown)
But then could I interest you with this? (Relatively affordable RTW)
Also charms inherently have no limit. They are a limitless purchase and you will never have enough.
LOLL I kid, I kid. I definitely need to think of and say some mantras myself before I buy the every single piece from this collection 😭😭😭

I’m really tempted by this sweater but it’s a try on for the itchies before I find ways to talk myself out of it:
Sorry for the double post but this is important! Get the kuma scarf!! I think all the knit kuma pieces are the most beautiful items in this collection. If I was more careful with the wool I probably would have gotten one but wool care is overwhelming for me.
Omg I don't think I even noticed this. What a gorgeous design! If you wear base layers often you could still make it work!
I've found Loewe mohair hit or miss with itchiness. Some is really soft but some very itchy unfortunately.
I love this combo! Already ordered the panda mini flamenco but your post made me order the charm today! Will only get to see them in person next week when stocks for the mini flamenco come in. 😍

Can't wait to see your new additions when they arrive.
Ugh, the Cow Bag is going to haunt me. Still sad and regretful that I passed on it! But I have to remind/re-convince myself that I don't need another plushie even if it's a bag!
More pictures! My sis is in Ginza now and have picked up the items we reserved with our Japan SA (plus a few more things 😅)
Details of the mandrake puzzle edge! Beautiful but I can’t get past that wrinkling…
Someone was asking for photos of the bifold wallet…
So the panda hammock came in today and it’s beautiful BUT again I couldn’t get past the wrinkling. Seemed really apparent on this khaki color.

Love the butterfly nails btw! So cute! I'll see if I can share some photos of how my Compact Hammock + Calcifer puzzle wrinkles because I think lighter colors get away with it better surprisingly from what I've seen
Just received a few items from Saks and will post photos in a bit, but honestly the quality of this collection feels a bit iffy....
I got the Otter plain cardholder and the yellow seems to have a grayish hue under it showing through, the marquetry was poorly done with a "dent" causing a shadow in the leather and the leather feels plasticy smooth. I don't think any of my other satin calfskin items ever felt like this. At least they had that velvety feel leather usually has.
I also got the lemur felt charm and the leather leaves behind the lemur are classic calfskin which is great, but it's hanging by a few threads poorly done. It looks messy. I understand it's so the leaves stay flexible and floating but it's looks so cheap if you look at it. It also seems to be attached in the felt and not in the actual leather strap which would have been so much better.
The felting quality and look is still very good though and details/shape are beautiful. It's the actual construction that's a bit of a problem.
Anyone else being disappointed by the quality? Can't believe I'm talking about Loewe like I'm talking about Uniqlo or something.

The weak yen and tax back really makes shopping in Japan super compelling. The panda hammock retails for S$5,500 but in Japan after tax back it is around S$4,150. Really had to tell myself that I really wouldn’t use the hammock (too short etc) and talk myself out of pulling the trigger remotely haha.
