I don’t know about the medium, but if your iPad is 10” long, it definitely won’t fit in the small..

I’m so excited a Loewe outlet just opened up at the outlet mall close to me (Cabazon Outlets in California). I purchased a card case for now but definitely going to go back. 
This is so exciting!! What did they have for selection on bags and accessories?!
Mine was never very snug and generally slides down so it doesn’t really serve its purpose. It stopped being useful probably within the first 3 months that I had the bag.
I also don't own an iPad, but for reference the interior of the medium is about 11 inches and the opening is 10 inches.
Hi! I'm interested in purchasing the Loewe Gate bag (small size). I was wondering if anyone who owns this bag could give me feedback on the soft calf vs. grained calf leather? I love both leathers and am having trouble deciding. Any feedback on the leather or the bag itself would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much and hope everyone is doing well 
Hi everyone just wondering, I haven’t been able to visit the stores and I wanted to purchase the loewe mini gate bag, does it actually fits an iphone pro max? Thanks in advance!
Hi, your bag is beautiful. I'm mulling over whether to treat myself to a small puzzle bag at the end of this year and would like one with the gold coloured hardware, as my colouring is warm-toned. I cannot decide between the caramel, sand mink or midnight blue/navy! But I wanted to ask you whether you're still happy with your bag and have you noticed any problems - please would you let me know? At £2000 I want to make sure that the bag will provide me with value for money and not have any major issues.You are so sweet, thanks for all your comments.
I think I was influenced by the idea that the tan calf leather is the „classic“ among all puzzle bags so I have to like it best.
But my heart says the caramel with gold is the best choice for me.

I just got this bag in the grained calf. When I talked to an SA, he did concede that the soft calf scratches easily, although is so soft! The grained seems really durable and I feel comfortable dabbing it with water if it stains (I wear a lot of sunscreen). I'm not sure if this is what you were asking, but I hope that it is helpful!
Generally I love the bag, although don't care so much stuff, as it's super light! I love the flap and how it secures with the overlying strap. It's really easy to get in and out but if I forget to close the flap, I still feel like my items are secure, and the bag feels both structured on the bottom but also easy. It has a back pocket that could fit an iphone, maybe? But I think it would be a bit snug and not secure, so I don't use it in this grained leather bag. There's a nice divider inside the bag to separate compartments, with a tiny flat pocket in the divider that I don't use. It's a soft suede, and I heard from others that it has torn on them, so I'm a bit cautious about how I place my keys inside. The only other thing that bothers me is that, because I am short, I have the strap adjusted to the shortest length, the securing mechanism for the end of the strap isn't super secure, so it sometimes ends up flopping around. I heard of some fixes of adding some DIY stitches through the holes, which I will probably end up doing at sometimes, as I don't think I'll be using it as a clutch anytime soon. Hope this is helpful too!
Thank you so much for your feedback! I really appreciate it! I agree, I think the grained in the way to go. I’m eyeing the ones from the new season. Which color combo did you get?
I got the black one! It's selling at a significant discount on farfetch, and it's also a really practical color for me! It's my first designer handbag, so practicality is what I was looking for as I start breaking into this hobby (and bank account)
, but all the colors looked so wonderful! I was looking for something not flashy and more subdued, which the black one is very much so. To be honest though, if I really had my truest (and less practical) pick though I would have gone with the rust soft calf leather as opposed to this one, but I am still very happy! Is there a color that you are eyeing?
The black is gorgeous. Such a beautiful contrast with the Rust colored strap. I would consider that one but I’m trying to NOT get a black bag. I am looking at the Rust colored natural calf but is pricier and I’m worried about scratching it. I don’t have a tan colored bag and it’s really beautiful. The new season Gate in the pebble grained leather in Oak is nice too!I got the black one! It's selling at a significant discount on farfetch, and it's also a really practical color for me!

Hi all,
I ordered my first Loewe puzzle bag but accidentally ordered 2 in the same colour (light caramel). When I unboxed them I realised they are slightly different. I checked the date code, one is made in 2019 & the other one 2020. if you look at the difference below which one would you keep?
1) Colour - 2019 made is slightly yellower. The picture below does not show much difference but you will notice in other pictures.
2) Stitching - The 2019 made looks thicker and again the colour difference is more obvious here.
3) Leather - 2020 feels softer and I think that's why it has a bit of slouch on the flap when I hold it by the handle.
4) The imperfection on each bag. Sorry to be picking bones out of an egg here but they're also why I don't know which one to keep.
One corner of the 2019 made is less grained (almost smooth)
Stitching on one of the tabs on the 2020 made is a little off.
Thank you all for your opinion!
