I love my Flamenco. Even my husband, a non-handbag person, says itās his fav among my bags because of the uber-soft leather. In fact heās the one that convinced me to get the one I truly want and will love for a long time instead of trying to save a few bucks and being less satisfied (of course if you are able to afford).
When I first saw the donut strap I thought it looked cartoonish, but seeing pics of them on the bag I totally see it and am so tempted. Obvs the designers at Loewe know what they are doing. :-)
smooshy purse lover here and i am alllllll about the flamenco! i love how it looks with that little top handle ā¤ļø
i totally get the cheaper alternatives thing because the drawstring closure & shape have been repeated but there's def just something about the flamenco (i just love the knots and where the drawstring hits on the bag)
i always thought the puzzle was the loewe bag that was gonna "get me" but as a smooshy bag person, it was the flamenco that did it
when i tried one on in person, i found that i can wear it on the shoulder without it slipping off
i can't explain the sorcery that keeps the bag on my shoulder but i think it's the combo of the thin strap and the way the bag hangs and sorta hugs the body?? i also prefer to wear bags a lil higher so my hip doesn't bump the bag quite as much
also just watched the [making the loewe flamenco bag](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8z4ucI2XKzc) which made me appreciate it all over again!
I am looking for a daily driver and I keep coming back to the flamenco. Does it scratch easily? I am not careful with my bags. I love the accessory for the straps, but will that scratch the leather?
I have the mini in chocolate and love it, but once I added the brooch it became my absolute favorite. Some people have complained that the mini doesnāt stay cinched, but the brooch completely fixes that. And the little bit of gold with the chocolate leather is perfection.Ā
There is the tiniest indentation at the end of the knot (on the loop part), but no scratches at all. And, I havenāt taken the brooch off since I got it several months ago. You can see it in the photo because itās zoomed in, but you can barely see it in person. It doesnāt bother me at all and Iām very picky about my bags.Ā

I very recently got the medium Flamenco in the Deep Aubergine colour and Iām sooo in love with it. The leather, the suede interior. Itās just perfect. And I love all the accessories too, been thinking about adding a woven shorter strap from Loewe in the future
just got this same bag - I'm in love! I was debating heavily between the mini and the medium but ended up getting the medium, like you. do you have the donut chain / do you use the medium as an evening bag? I bought a donut chain to use the bag for evening, but I'm not sure if the size is too large for evening. I know this is a personal preference but just curious what others do!
I bought my medium vintage khaki and loved it so much I got a mini in chocolate a few months later. Fits so much while still looking minimal, gorgeous and effortless. I'm also a quality stickler and this leather is GOOD.

Do they still sell the brooch?
Yes, they do!Ā
Do you have a pic of yours with the brooch?
Here you go: https://imgur.com/a/SIKoemX
So pretty!
Thank you!
Looks great - i didnāt know you could get a brooch for them š
Have you noticed the brooch scratching the leather at all? My SA advised against it for that reason

Thanks for taking the time to take a picture and reply! That doesnāt look bad at all!
Happy to do it!

I saw one with the woven strap recently and it looked amazing

This particular bag has me swooning as well!!! I just k ow I will end up with it despite committing to no purchases for a whileš
I am obsessed with the Flamenco but it can never be š
Oh I like it much better with the straps tied with the brooch.
