Hit me up next time you're in Kansai, I'll take you on a tour of the Loewe shops :D And any transportation is better than my home country, tbh :annoyed: We usually use private cars on our trips, but I want to be more on the ground this time so I'm excited to try the MRT (I def don't miss the Yamanote and friends, Osaka's Metro is much better I feel in terms of comfort!)

I would love that!! I never had enough time to go to all Loewe shops in Kansai, usually I just go to the one in Umeda because we usually stay there. Agreeed, sometimes it’s scary if I calculate how much time I spend in a car, especially when I’m in Indonesia...
The MRT is more similar to Osaka’s metro IMO, less crowded, a bit slower and less cars. Still very convenient but sometimes when I’m in a hurry I just wish they could come every 2 minute like the Yamanote does during rush hour [emoji23]

Btw, have you seen the dumbo collection bags yet? Last time I went in store and my SA told me they’re still expecting the shipment. Won’t be long but not sure when it’ll arrive. It looks soooo cute from the photo and the blue looks gorgeous!

I am thinking about getting a medium puzzle. I am debating between the tan smooth or light caramel grained leather.
Has anyone seen the grained leather in light caramel? How does it compare w/ the tan?
Also, if anyone has both types of leather, i would love your input on how differently do they age.
I can't seem to find anything that i can really compare the colors other than the pictures from the Loewe site.
Thank you in advance! =)

The smooth grained tan colour is slightly darker than the grained light caramel, though if you don’t have them side by side it may be hard to tell. The tan colour comes with shw and the grained one has ghw, at least for now and Loewe may new combinations in years to come. They both have the same handles and straps. I think they are both beautiful bags but personally I prefer the grained leather version. Both leathers will get softer with use but my perception is the smoother one will be the softer of the two.

Below left is light caramel and right is tan.

Actually that’s what I normally do and plan to this time. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] I normally get some day off in April that I can fly off for a couple of days to Hong Kong and shop till I drop, but not this year. Everything is so packed the earliest I can squeeze a trip in will be in July now. (And yeah... at first I thought it was May [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24]) I don’t even know if there will be anything left for me until then. [emoji17][emoji17][emoji17]

Perhaps next time you can get the SA’s number? If they’re familiar with you, usually they’ll be more than happy to keep certain bags for you. Hopefully you’ll be able to get them at your local stores though, that way you’ll be able to feel the bag. It’s quite different from other woven bags I had.

There should be something in July, but too bad you couldn’t fly this month because prices of some bag just went up :( maybe you’ll find something special in July though! My sis and I weren’t looking for anything when we walk into Celine the other day and she came out with a bag that she has been hunting for quite some time :)

I’ve been meaning to purchase a Loewe bag for quite some time and will be purchasing one next month. However I’m stuck on which to get! I’m torn between the Small Puzzle Bag and the Small Gate Bag! Anyone have any opinions on which I should get?

I have the Hammock in the light caramel and I love it. I also tried the tan colour on, but the SA, manager and myself preferred the light caramel on me [emoji4] But the tan is also gorgeous! View attachment 4403084

Hi,
I would say it depends on your outfits and what you usually put in your bag.

My small gate fits a lot but because the shape of it, it’s sometimes harder for me to fish out small items like lipsticks, they do get stuck at the bottom from time to time. For puzzle, it’s just easier to get my stuffs out, although you do need to get used to the opening, it bugs me at the beginning but now I’m used to it. As for the volume of these, it’s not easy for me to compare because mine’s medium puzzle and small gate. My friend has a small puzzle and it fits quite a lot as well! I’m tempting to get one in black as well.

I think basically both are great bags but it really depends on what you usually carry in your bag. Also puzzle to me is a little more casual so I don’t carry it that often if I have to work but I do take my gate with me a lot :)

I happen to be carrying gate today [emoji23] here she is [emoji173]️

Urg! Prices are going up, too? I feel like I'm being punished right now. [emoji24] [emoji24] [emoji24]
