Oh no, the balloon dice detail so appeals to me - that's so cute! But maybe I just buy the dice and save the extra thousands haha
I am relieved I don't need any of these colors, haha. I have two small puzzles already and don't really need a third anyway. I am dying for a large puzzle with feet so this may be my sign to concentrate my efforts there.
So apparently this is the first drop for the 10th anniversary of the puzzle bag. Special aspects of this puzzle would be that it is completely leather lined instead of either suede or cotton like the usual puzzles, it comes with the luggage tag and the ballon dice charm, and it brings back the metal feet that the small puzzle used to have. It’s entirely composed of lambskin as well.
Basically this is the Loewe speedy P9 but at half the cost of the LV one. Haha.

Gorgeous puzzles! I wish they came in medium or large though… Such a elegant bag.
Saw the puzzles instore today - they just received stock this morning. I don’t think it’s necessarily smaller than the usual small but because it is sooooo smooshy it could feel a little smaller than usual.
If not for the fact that we are already confirming our order for the tenth anniversary puzzle bags I may have pulled the trigger on one of these (Singapore retail price is S$6,250). It is truly reminiscent of the P9 speedy barring that it’s lambskin on both the exterior and interior of the bag. It’s insanely buttery but also feels less hardy than the P9 (since that one is calfskin on the outside), in fact I think it will be the type of bag that you have to make peace with showing signs of wear relatively easily vs the traditional smooth calfskin that is used on the puzzles. But the colors and details are really beautiful. Strangely Singapore only chose to buy in 4 of the 5 colors and skipped out on aquamarine, which means all four colors are really the classic, perennial colours. One hugely important difference apart from the way the strap is notched (not the usual stud and hole system) is that the clasps are FINALLY rotatable, which means no awkwardly realising you’ve put the strap on the “wrong way” like 99% of all the Loewe straps.
We were told that these will become part of the permanent Loewe collection, just that this first wave of bags would be quite limited in number.

You always have great pics and fantastic insight! Also, it's about dang time they did swivel clasps!
If this is becoming part of the perennial collection then I’m sure various colors will be released over time. The croc versions are coming soon as well according to our SA.
Thank you for this post, I have been waiting for your update! $6250 is really steep but the bags are so beautiful and im glad they finally made the clasps rotatable. Now im in two minds whether to get the black now or wait for the grey to come out.
Ah im a real big fan of the new rotating clasps and strap buckle. I don’t love the current one as it’s so tough to adjust
