I didn't have time to take any photos but I hold it up. It fell pretty good as a tote. Wasn't heavy nor light. Love the feel of the leather. It fell a little awkward as a hand-carry for me since I'm kind of short. I prefer shorter handle for hand carrying but will be perfect for crook of arm. Didn't have time to try the shoulder strap. Overall I love the look of it.

Thanks for this Monique1004, this is very helpful. I am short (5'0 on a good day...) and you are right if top handle is too long it could totally (almost) hit the floor - Actually happens quite often on stairs! If you don't mind me asking what colorway you preferred? Thank you Wondering if the two tone will look too busy in-person.

Saw the two toned yesterday, it's quite muted and lovely!

Taking this bad boy out for a weekend away after forgetting about it during moving house - it’s a secret Mary Poppins bag!

(Excuse muh bare feet; I live in Japan so it’s no shoes In the house. Also the unmade bed pillows XD)

Hi everyone! I'm new here! I'm so glad I have found other Loewe purse lovers!
I recently bought the small Loewe puzzle bag in sand/ mink. Even though I love it, I haven't really used it yet because I'm afraid the lighter color will easily stain and I want this to be my everyday purse. I'm trying to decide if another color like tan or black would be better. I'm also wondering if the small is the right for me. I tried on the medium at the store too but ended up buying the small. Please let me know what you think about the colors and sizes.

Is that SCP?
How tall are you? I like the small on you assuming you don't need a larger bag to carry all your stuff? The black bag is a medium? Black is a safe color but it doesn't show off all the puzzle panels as well. Unless you are really rough on your bags, the pebbled leather on the sand/mink is pretty hardy. I have a red pebbled small puzzle (picture is somewhere on this thread along with other puzzles I have) and I accidentally got some pen ink on it. It came out with a little spit on my finger . If you decide to keep the sand/mink you could always pretreat the leather with a leather protectant testing it on a small spot on the bottom of the bag first of course.

So tough! Seconding that black tends to not show the puzzle design as much but it does boil down to your lifestyle. I'm 5'5 and I got the medium in the pebbled leather so that I could have the option of using the bag at work as well as the weekend. Plus, the strap felt nicer. I tend to wear the bag on my shoulder on both the longer and short setting.

I actually did end up spraying my bag with a nano spray from Camper that I already regularly use on my shoes - just because I liked the thought of extra protection (the subway isn't always the cleanest). Hasn't affected the color of the bag so far!

Lol! Good to know that the Loewe pebbled leather is in fact hard wearing over time [emoji106]

You look gorgeous in every colour! I’m drawn to brights and greys so I would go for those, but classic black is timeless.

I’m 5’7” and the medium is great for me as it’s perfect crossbody and in the nook of my arm. It’s a good work bag too.

I spray my bags with the same Camper stuff as @Addicted to bags, and second everything they said. The leather holds up to daily wear (including being crammed in peak hour trains). Let us know

Yes! That's SCP! I'm glad to hear your red puzzle in the pebbled leather is pretty hardy! I'm so happy to hear you easily removed the ink stain! I'm leaning towards keeping the sand/mink. I love the color! I'm 5'6" so the small seems to fit better as a cross body and it fits all the essentials but it would be nice to carry more if I needed to. I might go try on the medium one more time just to make sure. Thank you for the information. Very helpful!

Thank You! Yes, I agree, the bright and grey colors look great on this bag!

I did notice the black doesn't show the detail as much as the other color. I'm going back to the store to try on the medium again just to make sure. That's good to know what protectant spray everyone recommends too.

Hmmm, at 5'7 you could wear either size. I like the straps better on the medium, much more comfy and has feet on the bottom. Loewe used to make the small puzzles with the same strap and feet but for some unknown reason they decided to stop. I only wear the small as I'm 5'1 so I've stopped buying anymore puzzles for now. But if they come back with the wider and more comfortable straps I'll be back to acquiring some more

Good luck at SCP with your decision. Saks used to carry puzzles too but not sure if they do now if you want to check another store.

Dropping in to show some pics of the flagship store in Nagoya - I was shocked it’s so big and gorgeous! The Casa Loewe is in Tokyo, but this one was also designed with Jon Anderson. I didn’t want to cheat on my SA so I grabbed only the t-shirt from the I Loewe Nature range >_>

(Ignore my partner in the last one XD)

Whoops, here’s the exterior XD
