What is “Almost Perfect”?
It’s the lowest price on all of our best selling leather goods! Our artisans have very high standards. Sometimes we come across hides with more natural character marks. Other times we notice a small imperfection on a finished product such as a slight color variation or a messy stitch or two.
When this happens, you save big!
No coupon needed! The maximum discount has already been applied to all items in the Almost Perfect Sale section.
Even on “Almost Perfect” items our quality is guaranteed! If you're not happy with your deal, send it right back according to our standard return policy.
The Leather
Our U.S.-sourced oil tanned leather is incredibly easy to care for. With time and use, the natural oils in the leather will rise to the surface, developing a beautiful patina and smoothing any scuffs or scratches that may have accumulated. Learn more about caring for your new leather product.
Our full-grain leather is the strongest and most durable available, and the unique texture and natural imperfections from the cow’s life have not been sanded, cut or shaved off. Full-grain is SIX times stronger than Buffed, Upholstery or Genuine leather.
Please note that our pebbled leather, like all of our leather, is a natural product. You may notice changes in grain or texture throughout your bag. Other companies artificially press a pebble texture into their leather. However, the pebbling of our leather is achieved naturally through an extra tumbling process which leaves some areas of the hide smoother than others.
Top Opening Width: 14"
Depth: 5.5"
Height: 11"
Adjustable Strap Length: 28"- 35"
Please allow 3-8 business days for order preparation plus estimated transit time.

No two PLG bags are alike! Please note: it is normal for all of our products, including Premium items, to have unique variations and character markings that are inherent to natural full-grain leather.

Customer Reviews
I love this bag so much! This is my 3rd almost perfect product and I am a customer for life, such great quality! I will say the only thing I'm not a huge fan of is the drawstring holes not being like lined or stitched for reinforcement but overall still in love.
I had been looking for months for a cute small backpack. It would be my first backpack ever . I looked at so many different sites and stores, not really finding what I wanted . Then one day, PLG popped up. So I decided to take a look , and there it was!!! I loved it as soon as I saw it! It’s perfect , it’s not to big, and not to small. I love the style, and the color . The quality was fantastic. Due to all of this, I have since ordered more items! I am so extremely happy! Thank you PLG!!! ❤️
I’ve had this beauty for a few months now and I’m obsessed! It started my PLG addiction.
Never in my life have I imagined I would have a baby blue backpack that I would carry around with me literally EVERYWHERE! For some reason, the construction of this bag makes it super lightweight. I'm notoriously a small bag gal, but now I feel free to carry my giant Sylvia Plath reader for those just-in-case moments. Plus my headphones, an outfit, a snack - all the essentials ;-) thanks PLG <3
Was nervous about the "almost perfect" idea I will not lie but decided I would try it out and if I decided to get the perfect one I could return this one and do so. I'm so glad I went with the almost perfect one there are only two tiny minor things I could find "wrong" with the bag (a tiny dime sized difference in the stain on the back by the shoulder strap and a tiny scuff on the flap) that I only found after looking over the bag three times and because I was looking, so I highly recommend this option. If you don't go looking for the imperfection you probably won't find it on your bag. This was my first purchase from Portland Leather but I don't think it will be my last. Very impressed by the texture, quality, and weight, and price. The leather is very soft, the bag holds more than my old cloth purse and it is somehow lighter. Attached a picture and as you can see, the small scuff on the flap is invisible.
I absolutely love this bag. It is super cute, is just the right size, and I love the color!!
