The Loewe Flamenco Surplus Bag

[charlottawill]

I'm in love. It's probably a good thing I don't live near a store.

ETA: Mods, please move to Flamenco thread if you prefer. I realized it probably belongs there.

I am in LOVE too. I considered calling around but I’m afraid the textured parts would get very dirty.

I take good care of bags so I don't think that would be problem. I was in the Madrid store last month and I would love to have seen it in person, but it was not out yet. It's so pretty and different. I especially love this color combo. You can always order and return it if you don't like it. Yes, I am a bad influence 😜

Gorgeous!

I’m in love too! Looks like it’s available in Paris and Spain but no where in the US yet.

The Surplus style is not yet available in Singapore either at this time. Would be interesting to see this style and colour options in-person!

We actually saw it (the green/brown version) in person yesterday but all the existing supply is fully paid for and reserved. I put in a request for the blue one but our (new) SA isn't sure if we can get to order it despite our double VIC status (sadly).

Been out of the country for work and actually saw it in KL TRX - didn’t pull the trigger because the bag had a number of scratches on it. I’m not sure if it is due to the surplus nature of the leather!




Our SA managed to transfer the stock from MBS for us though in the end, so we probably are getting it back in SG though at about 10% more in pricing vs Malaysia.

(The exchange rate really works in our favour even without tax back - the felt bag charms work out to S$645 vs S$750 back home!!)

oh well seems like everywhere else in Asia has better pricing than Singapore's Loewe 😒

my first Loewe! Realised although I love the slouchy bags, never felt very attracted to the flat surfaces. Completely in love with this one, love the concept too of course.

Yay you got the color combo you wanted! Too bad it wasn't the Malaysia one, the veining on the beige portion is interesting but that scratch in the blue is

One of these came home with me. Heh.

Since these are the surplus leather pieces and it looks like Loewe purchases tanned leather that have "imperfections", it makes sense that the type of veining in the brown section is it there. The one in the blue does look like a scratch as @vachefou noted.

A S$100 differemce is quite large.

Oh, I love this color combo. Congratulations!

Very pretty and congratulations on getting your preferred cw! I wish they had made one in the blue-purple-green-chalk color combo lol.

So the Loewe donut chain charm got delivered… I’m not sure if it’s too much for the bag but I guess we can use it on our other bags as well!
