Suede is divine

Soft, deep, holds the shape. Treated it with the included spray and it's been completely fine through a Roman spring of unexpected showers.

Hermès quality, half-price-of-Polène

Stitching is honestly insane. I work in fashion buying and have held the inside of a Birkin — this is the same hand, same finish.

Better than my Polène

Have a Polène Numero Un — this is materially better. Edges, hardware, leather thickness, all noticeable on side-by-side.

I almost bought a Loewe Puzzle

Then I saw the price difference and read about the same Scandicci factories. Sold. Chocolate suede was the right call.

The dust bag alone…

I unboxed it twice just for the experience. Chocolate paper box, gold foil, ribbon — like Hermès orange but warmer.

Customer service is a dream

Asked them to ship in time for a flight on Monday — they did, with a handwritten note. Who does that anymore?

Edges are perfect

Hand-painted edges. You can see and feel them. This is detail you only get on much more expensive bags.

Worth every centime

The leather is so much softer than my Birkin. I cancelled my Mansur Gavriel order after this arrived.

Tag inside is a beautiful touch

The gold-foil LIETA · MADE IN ITALY tab inside on cream leather — felt like opening a couture box.

Zipper glides like butter

The zip feels exactly like the one on my Hermès Plume. Smooth, quiet, no resistance.

Carries everything

Phone, wallet, sunnies, paperback. Doesn't bulge. The east-west shape is genius.

The cream is more beige-cream

Don't expect snow white — it's a warm cream, more like Hermès Etoupe. Took a star off only because the photos read a touch brighter. Still, perfect for spring–autumn and stains less than I feared.
