I saw that too. I'm waiting a few months to see some on the resale market before deciding...

I am buying one overseas in less than a month. The prices are so much cheaper in Europe. I can't wait for months.
I saw the featherlight in the dark butter color last week and fell in love instantly. I've wanted the puzzle for a long time but there was never one that made my heart sing like this one! The one I saw was on reserve so a new one is on the way to me. It's a lot prettier in person than on the website imo
Hopefully you’ll be able to tell in person when you see it how fragile or otherwise the leather seems. I’m sure it will be great!🤞I am buying one overseas in less than a month. The prices are so much cheaper in Europe. I can't wait for months.
Please, please post pics when you receive yours!
I stumbled across a couple of featherlight puzzles in a preloved store already for over £1000 off retail. I've ordered the red but there is a dark butter available too if anyone is interested

I've bought and sold online and in store with them before without issue so I'm hoping its legit and it's too soon for fakes to be on the resale market. Surprised to see them being resold already wondering if they are gifted ones being resold after creating content or just people changing their mind too late

Seems like a lot of influencers got them as “gifts” especially the red (a reason for why I’m hesitating to get that color) so they may be reselling.
True. Most of the influencers unboxed red ones. One unboxed a pecan colored bag. Tamara Kalinic unboxed a dark butter one.
I'm fairly annoyed when I try to search for photos of the featherlight on instagram and end up with tons of posts from influencers posing with the featherlight in bizarre/awkward poses that honestly does nothing to showcase the bags.
And when i'm looking at coloured bags i want to see the bags in natural light so i know the real colour tone and again the heavily edited photos from influencers dont help.
I saw this too. And yes assume it’s gifted bags being sold on. Oh to be gifted one in the first place! HahaI stumbled across a couple of featherlight puzzles in a preloved store already for over £1000 off retail. I've ordered the red but there is a dark butter available too if anyone is interested

Exciting about the red though! Let us know how you get on. I was tempted but reserving judgement till I see how they wear - and maybe holding out for the burgundy shade too 😍

Right I'd have loved to have been gifted one. I don't mind things being gifted but sometimes the oversaturation on social media puts me off. It does bother me though when they are gifted to people who don't appreciate it but pretend they love it for 5 seconds. But I guess that worked out in my favour this time because I was gearing up to pay full price. I did hesitate for a second debating whether to wait for the burgandy but realised if I didn't order it at thar price I'd kick myself. I can always send it back if the colour doesn't speak to me in person. I will keep you posted.
It’s a fab buy for sure and the red is gorgeous! I feel the dark butter doesn’t pop as much personally, and no contrast with the balloon charm. I’m sure you’ll love it - post pics! 😍
It arrived this afternoon I tried to get a picture in natural light that shows what the colour looks like in person but it's difficult it looks really different in different possessions. Both pictures are in natural light on a grey day. The first one with the window behind the second with the window to the side. The tone in person is more like the first picture but a bit dadmrker/richer maybe. The colour kind of gives a lighter burgandy or like a vintage feeling dark red lipstick kind of like Lisa Eldridge velvet jazz. I really like the colour in person. It feels a lot lighter than the original puzzle and the leather feels more like a flamenco but thinner. The outside feels more like the original flamenco because there is a bit of pebbling and the inside more like the flamenco purse. I really like the gold hardware against the red and the new strap design. It seems amaller than the original puzzle somehow but i dont think it is i think it just feels like there is less bulk because of the slouch/smoush and the weight. When they tied the tag on they tied it the wrong way so the Loewe isn't visible but I might keep it that way. The only thing it didn't come with is the second dustbag
