Loewe Dice Pocket Bag Review

 

I purchased this Loewe Dice bag as a souvenir from Japan back in November of last year. And I have not used it once in the last six months, which should tell you a little something about the bag. Sure I’ve stared lovingly at it countless times, but I haven’t actually put things in and taken it out of the house.

And you can probably guess why. It’s just too small! I honestly got it because I couldn’t afford the Loewe mini Puzzle bag from the same Suna Fujita collaboration. But I was able to pick it up secondhand from eBay for about 30% less than retail. And honestly I’ve only used that a couple times but that’s more than this Dice bag.

 

The Dice bag can only fit a phone, a card case, a lip balm, and maybe a small bottle of hand sanitizer. But to get the phone or card case out is a bit tricky without taking everything out (if you have long fingers, you might be able to get things out easier). You can see my video of what fits in the Loewe Dice Pocket bag here. I guess if you’re the kind of person to travel really light, this bag could work for you (especially if you keep your phone in your pocket or in your hand all the time). In the end I was swayed to get it because the sales associate who was helping me was also using a Dice bag (in tan) to hold their personal items while they were working in the store.

 

The good thing about this bag is the option to adjust the strap to make it a crossbody or to double it up to make it a shoulder bag. There’s also a card slot in the back if you want easy access to a transit card (you could probably tap the transit card with it still in the bag). The strap can also be used to hold charms (like Lisa from BP did in the pic below), which is a cute way to easily personalize your bag.

 

The collector in me wants to keep this bag because it’s just so beautiful and well crafted. But the beauty of the bag is also probably why I never want to take it out. But I’m a practical gal and I can’t see myself holding onto a bag just to look at it from time to time. And especially now that I have my mini Puzzle bag from the Suna Fujita collection, that bag is like my souvenir from Japan. I’ll probably sell it in my closet shop soon {Edit: it has since been sold.}
