📏 Size Breakdown: Mini, Compact, and Small

For clarity, we'll focus on the most commonly available sizes: the Mini and the Small/Compact, as these are the most popular choices for daily use.

Size Name	Dimensions (W x H x D) in cm	Dimensions (W x H x D) in in
Mini	18 x 17 x 9.5 cm	7.1 x 6.7 x 3.7 in
Small (Compact)	30 x 25 x 13.5 cm	11.8 x 9.8 x 5.3 in
Medium	33 x 27 x 15 cm	12.6 x 10.6 x 5.9 in

1. The Loewe Hammock Mini

This is the perfect choice for those who love the shape but prefer a smaller, more streamlined crossbody. It’s ideal for minimalists or for evening events where you only need the essentials.

• Approximate Dimensions (W x H x D): This size varies, but generally, it's around 18 x 17 x 9.5 cm when the sides are cinched.

• What Fits:

  • Large smartphone (e.g., iPhone Pro Max).

  • Small wallet or cardholder.

  • Keys, lipstick, and a few small personal items.

• Best For: Weekend errands, nights out, or as a chic second bag. If you primarily wear bags crossbody and only carry necessities, the Mini is your winner.

2. The Loewe Hammock Small (or Compact Hammock)

The Small, or Compact, is arguably the most versatile and popular choice. It offers a fantastic balance between being roomy enough for daily essentials while still looking polished and not overwhelming.

• Approximate Dimensions (W x H x D): Around 30 x 25 x 13.5 cm when fully expanded/open.

• What Fits:

  • A large wallet.

  • An iPad Mini or a small book.

  • Sunglasses in a case, a water bottle (when the sides are expanded), and all your daily essentials.

• Best For: Everyday use, work (if you don't carry a laptop), and travel. Its capacity to transform from a neat shoulder bag to a roomy tote makes it a true powerhouse.

💡 The Verdict: How to Choose Your Size

Choosing your Hammock ultimately comes down to your lifestyle and what you typically carry.

1. If you are a minimalist... or if you already own larger bags and want the Hammock specifically for its crossbody function and unique shape for lighter days, the Mini is your ideal fit.

2. If you need an everyday bag... that can comfortably carry a full set of essentials, including a wallet and maybe a small tablet, the Small/Compact is the go-to size. It masters the art of being flexible without being bulky.

Pro-Tip: Remember that the Hammock's magic lies in its expandable zip sides. When these are unzipped, the bag opens up dramatically, giving you a wider, more tote-like silhouette and increasing the carrying capacity significantly!
