Our durable leather goods are unlined, featuring the natural suede side of the hide. Since fabric-lined bags inevitably discolor and tear with use, we chose to showcase the soft sueded underside of our hides, ensuring that your bag lasts a lifetime.
Because leather is a natural material, slight color and batch variations are normal. Factors like hide age, season, and dye absorption can all affect the final shade—making each piece uniquely yours.
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. Our 'Almost Perfect' bags are never defective or damaged; we know you'll love yours as much as we do.
When this happens, you save big!

Our Full-Grain Leather
Our 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.

Just received my Lagoon mini crossbody. The leather has a lot of variations, on one side of the front pocket it is completely smooth. First I didn't like it, but now the more I look at it, I totally fell in love with it. It has a lot of pull-up, and so much character. I would probably only buy Almost Perfect, as these bags are so unique! Lagoon is my favorite leather, so squishy!

Love this bag!
by: Lyssa O.
The plum color and the small size are perfect for a day trip. There’s enough room for some littles, a small bifold, and eyeglasses case.
This is the perfect bag!
by: Karen W.
I fell in love with the cold brew leather when I got a mystery little for a friend. I knew I had to have a bag in this leather… bucket was the perfect answer! She’s gorgeous, soft and holds everything i need! I know I need more colors!
Fabulous AP Plum LG Bucket!
by: Beth S.
In perfect condition, no flaws anywhere! Love this bag and color for fall! There’s room enough for my wallet, also in plum and a few littles. It’s my first pebble leather and it’s so soft and I appreciate its flexibility!
Love it
by: Colleen
Bought it in green for my wedding and took it on my honeymoon- I love it!! So cute and perfect. Highly recommend
Two Beauties!!!
by: Jeannie G.
Loving my buckets, big and small! My Naples and Cape Coral are bright and beautiful! Both have wonderful pebbles and my Naples has quirky striations/stretch marks … a signature that makes this bag is unique and just for me! I wish I could have both sizes but, my closets are full! Almost perfect is perfect to me!!!
It is perfect
by: abby
The bag is so soft and slouchy just the way I like it! It fits all of the things I need for the day. The smell of leather doesn’t bother me, i think It smells amazing 😊 I want more bags!!!
AP Lagoon Small Bucket
by: Susan N.
I love my AP small bucket bag in Lagoon. I don’t see anything that would make this bag almost perfect. I modified the original strap (put swivel clips on the original strap to make it removable) and added the multi strap in Lagoon. Love the color and love all my small bucket bags! They hold so many littles with room for more. Currently I’ve got a small seashell, Sabrina, quesadilla wallet, phone and a taco tassel pouch💚💙
Lovely Lava
by: Kate P.
This is the first small bucket bag I’ve purchased. And I am in love. Lava seems to be one of my favorite smooth dark leathers lately. I have her in a small kangaroo as well. Certainly won’t be my last piece. Or my last bucket bag.
So Cute! Love this Bucket Bag!
by: Jen H.
I purchased 2 of the large Bucket Bags recently - Molino Blue and West Palm and they are both BEAUTIFUL! I wasn't sure about this style but am really loving how unique it is and how spacious inside - it even has an inside pocket!
Perfect!
by: Kara
Everyone swooned when this arrived. I think this is my favorite PLG color yet! Thank you!
Wisteria large bucket bag
by: Staci C.
The large bucket bag in wisteria is a puddle of pebbly goodness. It holds so much! Don’t sleep on the bucket bag!
Love it
by: Lauren
Bucket bag in cold brew is beautiful and neutral! This is my second bucket bag. My 1st is a small Cape Coral and I loved it so much I had to get a large one in a neutral color! This definitely won’t be my last 🧡🤎
Bucket of Purrfection
by: DarDar
This bag is awesome! I got the almost perfect large bucket bag In plum. The color is fantastic, especially in the sunlight. The strap is adjustable, which is good since I am 5‘1”. The bucket bag style is really great. It fits a lot, including journals and books, along with daily necessities. The bucket style makes it easy to open and grab things, but still keeps things secure. The bag is easy to use daily with the pair of jeans doing errands or goes well if you dress it up. Very happy with my choice! Would consider getting a small one to use on days where I don’t want to take much. Great bag at a great price!
No surprise… I love it!
by: Sara P.
I love my small one so much I ‘needed’ to get the large! It’s beautiful Sedona. For an AP it’s pretty darn perfect. It’s enough larger that it feels bigger when you’re carrying it, but there’s also a lot more space if you need it. I’ve included a photo here to show the size comparison between the two. Note- small one is cold brew.
AP Small Sedona
by: Emily V.
I love this bag! It’s so spacious, even being the small bucket. I like that it’s a cinch close, I can get to everything easily. It is a bit darker Sedona, so a little bummed, but still love it!
Perfect in my eyes!
by: Madison D.
I love this bag! I can't tell what isn't perfect about it. It's a great size for every day, the only thing I'd change is the option for a shorter strap. I prefer wearing my purses on the shoulder and not as a cross body, and the shortest hole on this strap still hits me at the low hip. I will likely punch more holes but there is a lot of excess strap I'm not sure what to do with and it flops around as it is now.
Customer Reviews
I ordered the large plum bucket bag and it did not let me down. The color is beautiful! I also have it in cold brew. Along with my 2 small and 1 large circle bags I am getting quite the collection and loving it!!
Im in love with this bag !! Perfect color , perfect size !❤️
Love the color love the smell love the feel!
It’s just perfect and I get so many compliments! Friends are looking into Portland Leather!
Love it! Beautiful bag, color is beautiful. A little more muted than the pictures on line.
Wow, do I love this bag!! I got the large almost perfect bag in coldbrew. I thought the ap bags are the way to go because broken in, soft and worn is how I want this bag to become!! It's a beautiful bucket purse.
