Our durable leather goods are unlined, featuring the natural suede side of the hide. 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.

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 & 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.

Almost perfect

Premium Collection

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.

Almost Perfect items can feature more prominent character marks than our Premium line, and/or small stitching variations, showcasing the aesthetic variety of our natural hides and handmade designs.

Why do you use leather with prominent character marks in the first place?

We only qualify Almost Perfect in terms of cosmetic irregularities that have absolutely no impact on the quality or durability of our products. Rather, we figured that it'd be a shame to waste such beautiful and functional leather, so we decided to sell it at a discounted price.

What type of imperfection will I get with this bag?

Each of our Almost Perfect bags is one of a kind! While we can't say for sure which one you'll receive, some common character marks our customers find are pebbling and color variation, scars and striations, or a stitch out of place. That being said, rest assured that none of these "imperfections" will impact the functionality of the bag in any way!

What if I don't love my Almost Perfect bag?

Everything from our Almost Perfect collection (excluding Mystery Box bundles) falls under our usual return policy. For more detailed information, visit our Returns page.

If I could give it more that 5 stars, I would!

by: Shannon S.

I absolutely adore my Lola bag. The black pebbled color is my favorite so far (I have a few PLG’s bags). Her structured shell, and sleek color look perfect together. I always wear her crossbody, but the grab and go handles are good when I gotta run! She is the perfect size for me. I tend get too large if a bag, then stuff it painfully full, but she is smaller so that isn’t an issue. BUT she holds a surprising amount for being a more petite size. I love the inside and outside pocket slot and they hold my eyeglasses (inside) and my phone (iPhone 14 pro max- in the outside pocket). Yes the phone sticks out a little but I like that so I can easily slip it out to use. Lastly, I love the magnetic closure. I’m usually a zipper girl but the magnet keeps everything hidden. Anyway, just buy the Lola!

Can't get enough of Night Owl!

by: Alice O.

I love this new bag! I have another N/S Lola (in fog) and love its vertical orientation. Did I need another one? No. But Night Owl wasn't available before and now I have started a company and our main color is navy blue. So obviously I had to get one. I ordered both the E/W and the N/S as peoples they love their E/Ws. I really liked them both, and thought maybe I should keep the E/W because I already have a N/S. So I test-packed the E/W and left in on display for me to look at each time I went into the room. And each time I thought "That does look good", but I was somehow secretly pining for the verticality instead. And the N/S had some great striations on the front pocket. So the N/S is my winner and I love her! Top view has a 13 in MacBook Air laptop sleeve, 2 LD planners (just in case), my stethoscope, my water bottle, a large LD pencil case in the bottom, then standing on top of that are a small eclipse and travel coffee mug.

Great style and size - will buy more in future

I am really liking the style and size of the Lola. I chose Sunkissed, and am still trying to decide on how much I like it. To be clear, I saw it in person before I chose it, and still, at times it is so pretty and other times it is just a little odd to me depending on the lighting.

Awesome

Awesome. Such a cute bag in Phoenix. Now I just have to downsize all of my stuff (lofty goal).

Love!

I really love the Lola! I usually like a little bigger bag but sometimes I don’t carry as much. The Lola seems to be more of structured bag. I got it in the Molino Blue. That’s such a beautiful blue.

A perfect size in between mini and medium crossbodies

If the mini crossbody is too small and the medium crossbody is too large, look no further because the classic lola is your girl! Fits everything the mini crossbody does, but there's a bit of room to spare. I can put my book or kindle inside or I can fit a small water bottle. It's a great everyday carry!
