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.
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.
Savings
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?

Sunkissed Bliss
by: Alexis B.
I have Lolas with both zipper and snap closures. The snap is better. I don't care for PLG's zipper because it doesn't seal the bag, but leaves large gaps at each end. Instead, I use a zip canvas organizer on the inside. The shoulder straps also need replaced on every bag. Once these modifications are made, the Lola is a great little bag. I like it better than the crossbody mini because you can carry it at your elbow. The Sunkissed color goes with everything - I choose this bag when I'm too tired to think about coordinating an outfit. The color is stiff and retains a sophisticated look. I can dress my smooth leather Lolas up or down depending on the flair and strap (or no strap). This isn't something I feel I can do with the mini crossbody tote. Its squared shape makes getting into it easy when I need to.
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.
Perfect size, neat/clean style
by: Jennifer D.
Love this Dakota small Lola — the size is perfect for summer. I think in Fall id need something slightly bigger — but this is such a perfect companion for rompin around in jeans/with or wothout the lods. Love the structure and can dress it up or down!
OMG PERFECTION
by: Robert G.
I know why people are addicted! THIS BAG IN THIS COLOR!!!
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!
LOVE the zipper Lola!!!
by: Stephanie V.
This new zippered Lola is fabulous! Absolutely love the structure of Honey, too! It’s just a classy bag!

Lola Honey
by: Cheryl R.
This is my new go to bag! The leather is gorgeous and the size is perfect to carry just what I need without being too large & heavy! It’s the perfect planner bag!
Lola is the perfect size!
by: Jasmine S.
Lola is just the right size between a mini cb and a medium cb! She holds all the things without feeling so heavy! I love her!
Best Bag Yet
by: Mary B.
I love my Classic Lola Crossbody in Dragon Bone. The leather is beautiful and Lola is so versatile. All the things I carry fit with ease and don’t get lost in the bottom of the bag, with room left over if I need my Kindle or checkbook. Brushed leather is so easy to care for and smells so heavenly right out of the box. Dragon Bone is a versatile neutral!!
Nutmeg Lola
by: Evelyn M.
The most squishiest bag I known. So soft and beautiful and so pebbly. Love my Lola girl!
Perfect office bag
by: Debi S.
Lola is a perfect office goer’s bag. The straight lines, boxy shape gives it a formal look. It’s neither too big, nor too small, has just the right amount of space to hold your wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a small water bottle, and even a knitted cardigan. And almond color is a neutral lover’s dream. Overall very happy with Lola, she is gonna be a longtime companion.
Classic design
by: Anna D.
Lola has classy lines, convenient pockets, perfect size, and upgraded, slightly larger grab handles from the crossbodies. It's very different from their other standard products and I love it!!
Pebbled Black Lola
by: Jessica B.
I ordered Lola on a whim and so glad that I did. I love her! The shape, the size! She is so perfect and looks so classy!!!
Classy and comfortable
by: Jenna L.
Can't believe I waited so long to try this style. It's very classy and timeless but also comfortable and functional. This batch of honey leather is sooo soft and I can tell it's going to age beautifully. I do wish the pockets were slightly deeper but that's just personal preference. Still a really fantastic bag!
3RD Time’s a Charm♥️
by: Kim F.
This is the third time I have ordered this bag. First Lola was in Night Owl, she landed at my daughter’s house and is yet to return 😉😊 Second Lola was in Green Apple, I was able to get her out and about. I did NOT remember to leave her in the car while making a quick stop at my Mom’s. Apple stayed at Nonnie’s to keep her company. Finally a Lola for me❣️ My Nutmeg Lola is everything I had hoped for. I love this color and its squishyness. This style is obviously generationally appealing😊 I’m keeping a close eye on this beautiful Pal. PLG does not disappoint ‼️
Customer Reviews
So I got another Lola, lol! I absolutely love this style…. it’s not too big and not too small, holds a lot, looks classy, and I love the crossbody option!! My large raindrop is a tiny bit smaller, and my medium crossbodies will hold a bit more. The Phoenix leather is so neat! I love it more than I remotely thought… this is my first red purse. It’s similar in color to my chili red pouches, but it has the mottling from the oils and the more you bend it, the more character and mottling it gets. I like the firm leather that stands up and doesn’t close in on me and this is just right, not too stiff and has such a smooth soft feel. I just love these oiled/waxed leathers! It’s like my larkspur OS Lola. Definitely a must have!
Great color. Love it!
Oh, the colors I bought are gorgeous. plenty of room for all necessities. And this tote is not heavy like some leather purses are.
I have been looking at different reds and when Phoenix came out in Lola, I was pretty sure this was it! I did not want pink , fuschia or orange. Phoenix is true red with a luxurious texture and lots of pull-up! Lola is the perfect in-between sized crossbody.
The Phoenix Lola is a wonderful purse. The leather is sturdy and keeps its shape. It holds the perfect amount. It came with a free canvas organizer and that works perfectly. I love the bag.
