Orchard Leather Goods Shop Open Till 10pm Daily: CASA LOEWE

CASA LOEWE Singapore is a ground-floor leather goods shop at 2 Orchard Turn, #01-11A/12, ION Orchard, Singapore 238801, and it keeps the same hours every day of the week: 10am to 10pm. When it opened in December 2020 it was the first CASA LOEWE in Southeast Asia, a 340-square-metre store that treats its handbags almost like gallery pieces. The least expensive bag quoted below, the Mini Scarf in suede, costs S$3,200 on the brand's Asia-Pacific site.

Loewe's own history page starts in 1846, when a collective of Spanish artisans opened a small leather workshop on calle Lobo in Madrid. Enrique Loewe Roessberg later acquired that workshop and gave it his name. The house describes itself today as the second-oldest luxury fashion house in the world, and it still frames its bags around leatherwork rather than logos, which is the right way to read the shelves here.

That craft-first story is also why the Singapore store looks the way it does. A CASA is Loewe's word for a flagship that mixes product with design objects and art, and the ION Orchard space was planned as one from day one. If you only know the brand from the Puzzle bag on social media, a slow loop around this room fills in the backstory that the logo alone never tells you.

SENATUS covered the opening on 18 December 2020 and described an interior built on natural materials: raw concrete walls, timber panelling and ceramic tiles handmade in Spain. The same report said the store would show work by nine international artists and designers, including a tapestry by the American artist Josh Faught. ION Orchard's own spring 2026 shopping guide still lists the shop at the same unit and repeats the 340-square-metre figure and the daily 10am to 10pm hours.

The effect inside is quieter than most Orchard Road flagships. Bags sit on low plinths and shelves with space around them, and the art is placed between the displays rather than tucked into a corner. Look at the ceramics and the textile pieces as you move through, because they are part of the point. Ask to hold a bag before you look at the price tag, since weight and stiffness vary a lot across the Puzzle range.

The Puzzle is the bag most people come in for, a geometric design built from angular cut leather panels. On the Asia-Pacific site, the Small Puzzle Edge in classic calfskin is S$5,200 and the Small Puzzle Blown in glossy lambskin is S$5,900. The Small Featherlight Puzzle in grained nubuck costs S$6,250, and the winter Small Puzzle Aviator in glossy lambskin with shearling is S$5,990. None of these were marked as discounted when checked in October 2026.

For softer shapes, the Medium Flamenco clutch, with its knotted drawstring ends, costs S$4,400 in suede and S$6,450 in glossy lambskin trimmed with shearling. The Scarf bag is the newer line, with a Medium in smooth calfskin at S$3,990 and the Mini in suede at S$3,200. If you are deciding between a Puzzle and a Scarf, try both on your shoulder, because the Puzzle's corners sit stiffer against the body than photos suggest.

An honest note: skip the shearling Aviator in Singapore unless you are packing for a cold-weather trip. It is a beautiful winter bag, but in 30-degree humidity it will spend most of the year in its dust bag, and the plain lambskin Puzzle Blown does the same job for less. Suede also needs more care in this climate, so the calfskin Scarf is the more practical pick for daily use on the island.

The official store page offers appointment booking, which is worth doing on Saturday afternoons and in the weeks before Chinese New Year and Christmas, when ION is at its busiest. For leather care, Loewe's FAQ tells customers to visit a store for information about its cleaning service, so bring an older Loewe piece and ask the team what they can send away for you.

ION Orchard sits directly above Orchard MRT, so many shoppers arrive straight up the escalators from the station rather than from the street. The ground-floor unit means you never have to cross the mall's lower food levels to reach it. The 10pm closing time, the same every night, makes this one of the easier luxury stores on Orchard Road to fit in after a workday or a full day of sightseeing.

If CASA LOEWE is crowded or the colour you want is out of stock, Maison Goyard's duplex boutique in Takashimaya Shopping Centre is a short walk east along Orchard Road. It sells a very different kind of bag, coated canvas with leather trim and hand-painted initials, which makes it a useful comparison if you are choosing one big purchase for the trip.

From the ION exit, walk west along Orchard Road past Tanglin towards the Singapore Botanic Gardens at 1 Cluny Road, which was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2015. Entry to the main gardens is free, while the National Orchid Garden inside charges a ticket. The walk takes around half an hour at an easy pace.

If you prefer to stay indoors, cross the road to Ngee Ann City at 391 Orchard Road, where Kinokuniya's large bookstore fills part of the third floor. Then come back to ION after dark, when the mall's curved glass facade is lit up. That loop makes a good half-day around one serious bag decision without needing a taxi.

CASA LOEWE Singapore, 2 Orchard Turn, #01-11A/12, ION Orchard, Singapore 238801. Open Monday to Sunday, 10am to 10pm. The nearest station is Orchard MRT on the North-South and Thomson-East Coast lines, with direct underground access into the mall. Appointments can be booked through the store page, but walk-ins are welcome.

Prices in this guide are the Singapore dollar prices on Loewe's Asia-Pacific site in October 2026, and they were not marked as sale prices. Allow at least 45 minutes if you want to try several Puzzle sizes and look at the art properly. Then ask the Karpo APP for a quiet cafe or dinner spot near Orchard, so the bag shopping does not swallow the whole evening.
