Sussans, like the erm...old lady brand? Wow that’s audacious, I’d email the ACCC and Loewe because thats...yeah not good. And don’t let it dissuade you; the bag isn’t known in Australia and the real thing is worth it.View attachment 4357801 I'm so pissed.. I've been saving to buy a Puzzle Bag and yesterday I go into a dress shop in Australia (Susan's) and sitting on the shelve is a look-a-like / take off of a Puzzle Bag!! I've now gone completely off this bag.. People ***** about Fake Bags... I get it!!
Here’s Charlotte Rampling with one. It doesn’t fit a larger iPhone, if that also helps. I might buy one just as display because it’s so cute!Does anyone have both a small and mini Gate bag? I'm only 5ft tall so I'm trying to figure out which size would work best for me.
so medium it is! thank you for helping me decide on it! im in love. this is such a beautiful bagit looks like black in some lighting and a hint of blue in others. photos don't do it justice, LOL.

I did notice something with the stitching on the handle. is this normal? (see photo below) the stitching is not even in the parts that are thick, where the end of the handle fold is (i hope im making sense). everything else is immaculate. Am i just being nitpicky or is this normal? Do let me know

Thank you so much!!!! ♥️ Now my heart is at peace, LOL. ordered this straight from the website and all they could suggest was that i return it for replacement. The process takes so long and i don’t think i want to deal with that anymore.Hi,
I have exactly the same bag as yours. Mine was bought about 2 years ago and the bag is holding up pretty well. I used it ALOT for travelling.From the photos you can see the stitches on one side of the handle are also uneven - I assume because it was hand-stitched(?). Enjoy the bag!View attachment 4357939 View attachment 4357940
I think this is somwhat normal but please don’t quote me on this since I don’t own a puzzle bag and didn’t look this closely when I went in to see the bag last. Because the leathers in those part are thicker, they are likely hand-stitched together, hence the uneven stitches as compared to a machine stitch, though yours does look especially uneven and could do with better craftsmanship. Below are a few pictures of the handle parts from the photos I took. Sorry for their blurriness as I didn’t specifically look for the handles. There might have been slight uneveness but not to your extend.
I was kinda disappointed with the show! The new bag styles kind of just remind me of Phoebe Philo Celine.
You will love the bag more after each use because this is one of my bag that is so carefree. No worrying of canvas crack or glazing, lolThank you so much!!!! ♥️ Now my heart is at peace, LOL. ordered this straight from the website and all they could suggest was that i return it for replacement.

You bag looks so good. Wow!!! i can’t believe it’s 2 years old. Do you condition it often?
I’m loving my puzzle even more now seeing how yours held up so well!
I’m personally in love with this new Gate bag, which I’m nick naming the “Beetlejuice Gate Bag” [emoji173]️[emoji173]️[emoji173]️[emoji173]️
Why German fashion? Didn’t get those references...Me too! There’s so many salutes to Loewe’s history and German fashion/engineering, it was a really clever show. Probably not rushing out for the Flying Nun hat but appreciate Jonathan’s love for the company and it’s history while being modern.
In reply to @sonicxml dont post as soon as you wake up, self XD
The founder/pioneer is German, Enrique Loewe Roessberg. The brand is Spanish.Why German fashion? Didn’t get those references...
