Perfect for city days, business lunches, and weekend escapes, this Loewe Medium Puzzle in white calfskin brings crisp polish to any ensemble, carried by the top handle or on the shoulder.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What can the Medium Puzzle hold day to day? A: With approximate measurements of 28 × 19 × 12 cm, it comfortably fits a long wallet, smartphone, keys, sunglasses case, a small water bottle and a compact umbrella, plus a small tablet or e‑reader (up to around 10 inches depending on case). It does not take A4 documents or a laptop flat; papers may need to be folded or placed in a smaller folder.
Q: How can I carry this bag? A: The Puzzle design is known for versatility. This piece can be worn by the top handle, on the shoulder or crossbody using the detachable, adjustable strap. The overall design allows up to five carrying styles in the range (including clutch or belt‑style options), though day‑to‑day most owners use top‑handle, shoulder and crossbody.
Q: Does the Puzzle bag fold flat for travel? A: Yes. Thanks to its precise, origami‑inspired panel construction, the Puzzle can be folded flat, which makes it convenient to pack in luggage or store neatly when not in use.
Q: Does this Medium size have an exterior pocket? A: Yes. This item has one rear exterior zip pocket for quick‑access essentials.
Q: Is the strap removable and what are the drops on this piece? A: The shoulder strap is detachable and adjustable. On this item the strap drop is approximately 55 cm, suitable for shoulder or crossbody wear, and the top‑handle drop is approximately 9 cm for hand carry.
Q: Does the Medium Puzzle have metal feet on the base? A: Design details vary by year and edition. Some earlier releases feature metal feet while others do not. Please refer to our product photos to see the exact base on this piece.
Q: How does the Medium compare with other sizes for capacity? A: The Medium is an excellent everyday size for essentials and a small tablet. If you need to carry A4 documents or a 13‑inch laptop regularly, shoppers usually consider the Large; the Small suits lighter, compact carry.
Q: What leather is this made from and how should I care for the white colour? A: It is crafted from calfskin leather with black trim and a textile lining. For care, wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth, avoid prolonged exposure to moisture or heat, and store stuffed in a breathable dust bag to maintain shape. With white leather, be mindful of colour transfer from dark denim and saturated fabrics; avoid rubbing against such materials and rotate carry to minimise wear.
Q: Is the Puzzle unisex? A: Yes. The clean, architectural design and adjustable strap make it a popular choice across styles and genders. Sizing and strap length are the main considerations for fit and carry preference.
Q: Where is this bag made and what accessories are included? A: Loewe leather goods are typically crafted in Spain; this piece’s origin label is Spain. It comes with a detachable shoulder strap as listed under Accessories. If an item such as a dust bag or card isn’t listed, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously examined by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, stamps, serials, hardware, and stitching. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional validation details on request.
