Here is my new Amazona (red) next to my black suede from 2013 . This is my favorite bag style. Black bag gets used daily from dec to april and bit slouchy looks great! The red is new style and not as wow as leather not as soft. I like the lock better than luggage tag and took it off. i highly doubt ill use strap as this is a carry only bag so put it away. What I didnt know is that hardware is 24k gold plated! Looked at old bags documents and says that too! Hope Loewe does not turn into Coach as the new designer came from there and not happy that Amazona can be found in outlets...not good for the brand! We all know what happened to his last Brand he blew up in outlets! Heres my pics
I really doubt Loewe will turn into Coach. Stuart Vevers has not been the designer of Loewe in 5 years; Jonathan Anderson is now and he never worked for Coach. You might argue that JWA put Loewe on the fashion map. They are still producing Amazonas for full-priced lines as well; you can find them on the Loewe website still. All of the bag designs are currently available at the outlets, not just the Amazona. As for the outlets ruining the brands, Loewe - like Chloe, Givenchy, Dior, etc - do not make bags specifically for the outlet; they just sell out-of-season stock and these brands are all doing okay for now. They no longer stock the Amazona at Barneys though, so we'll see if it continues to be a best-seller. Please stop worrying.
On a more positive note, your new Amazona is lovely! The Amazona is very much catching my eye and I'm hoping to pick one up pre-owned in a bright color as my next bag purchase.
I think they only send the outrageous seasonal pieces to outlets which is normal for every brands. I heard some brands even keep the pieces they in storage for 5 years to make sure it’s so outdated before releasing it to outlets. Not like some brands where you’ll find it at the outlet next month.
Thank you! Whew! Ive been not buying bags since 2013...this is first in long time. Im actually downsizing collection, so intention is to keep loewe and hopefully the value!
I promised a photo a couple months ago, so here's my Christian Louboutin clutch with silver Loewe knot keychain. I really needed a handle or strap for the clutch, and this seems to work alright. I had really wanted a red/black/white knot to match the leather (there's red leather on the sides), but it had gold hardware so that wasn't going to work at all.
This isn't perfectly matched, but it's close enough. (It actually looks a bit better in the photo–in real life, the silvers are more obviously different)

here is my new amazone in action..
Yes its the 28 and im 5' 7". Perfect for me
Looks great on you! Sorry to hear the leather is not as soft, but it is lovely! I haven't seen the new Amazona in real life yet. What are your thoughts on the weight compared to the old version?
Thanks, I find old is a tad lighter. I am wearing my old suede one today after 2 days of my new red one. I really like th gold lock on the front, nicer than new one for sure. i will take out new one next week to give it time to soften.
