Make your bag your own with our colorful collection of leather accessories!
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.
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?
Everything from our Almost Perfect collection (excluding Mystery Box bundles) falls under our usual return policy. For more detailed information, visit our Returns page.

Monacos 4life
by: Michelle K.
Ok so I have 3 larges now, they are so cute and the perfect weekend carry for me. I have larkspur (very unique leather and I love purple), chocolate brown (surprisingly soft and pliable for a smooth leather) and now Sienna (just had to have one pebbled because that’s my jam). It’s slouchy yes but still super classy in a comfy way. Highly recommend.
Chocolate perfection 🍫
by: Marie P.
After the release of the new Monaco, I missed out on getting the chocolate color…I had to wait patiently for it to come back in stock and had to resist, as hard as it was, buying the Monaco in a different color. I’m so glad I did wait, the leather is just perfect for this bag! It’s such a rich color and goes beautifully with everything! It’s my new favorite bag. Of course now I want the Monaco in every color as the bag shape and size is pure perfection. :) for any crossbody bag lover she is awesome 😎

Purple Perfection
by: Deborah F.
I love the color of this Monaco! The size is great. Leather is soft. There's lots of room inside. I can fit my eyeglass case, 2 small wallets, inhaler and lip glosses and still have room for my phone and some!
Fantastic purse!
by: LeoC
Absolutely love this bag, holds a lot and the color is perfect.
Adorable purse!
by: Debbi C.
I ordered the small Monaco in Stone. It’s such a cute purse and the color goes with so much! The only thing I’d change is to have a pocket on the back for my phone.
Great crossbody!
by: Holly
I love this crossbody! It looks, "perfect" if you ask me!
Large Monaco Nutmeg 🌰
by: Jenna D.
I went back-and-forth for a long time with which color I was going to get but landed on a classic nutmeg. It’s so soft and pebbled, I love it 🤎 I think I want a small in bright color. And it holds more than I thought it would too!
Purse Peace
by: N.O.
The large Monaco in both pebbled and smooth leathers have shaken the rankings for purse peace over here! She holds my daily carry effortlessly (large seashell/seesaw, taco keychain, mini bi fold, squeeze glasses) with some room to spare!

Love it!
by: Stephanie
I've been wanting a red crossbody, but wasn't particularly fond of some of the other bag styles. When I saw this new Monaco, I knew it was exactly what I needed! She's perfect for my daily carry, since I often wear colors that work well with red.
Beautiful Bag
by: Tiffany P.
Very classy bag! Holds way more than a thought it would! Very elegant design.
Customer Reviews
I haven't used the purse yet, but chocolate brown is surprisingly soft and feels pleasant to the touch. Perfect bag to dress up or down. Small, but will fit my needs.
This Chili Redsm Monaco, was beautiful! Wasn’t even expecting to love this style, way roomy it holds my full size bi fold wallet!
Super cute!!
I love this bag. I got cobalt and the color is gorgeous! She’s very squishy and has lovely chucky pebbles. I added a little crystal to dress her up.
I did not walk into the store looking for the small Monaco Crossbody, but my eyes went straight to it hanging on the wall in Chili Red. I immediately put it on and wore it throughout my entire shopping experience. There was no question that I was leaving with this purse! Two different shoppers approached me in the store to ask about it. I happily purchased it and used it throughout the rest of my trip. It hangs perfectly and holds everything that I need to carry. I love the shape, size and color. What a fun surprise for me!
