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

Love the Larkspur I got. Holds more than you'd think
by: Natassia B.
I am thankful mine didn't have something wrong with the flap being too long or their being a weird dimple on the front. Mine seems perfect so far. Packed it with my normal essentials, and it fits a lot more than I thought it would. Larkspur is a lovely color. I'd have to say for the most part it looks like a plum version of Merlot. But in the shade it looks more purple.
What a Winner!
by: Laura M.
I got a large Monaco in Chocolate Brown on launch day, and it instantly became my favorite PLG bag! It is the perfect size for all my daily carry items, it sits so comfortably against my body, and it can easily be casual or more dressy depending on how you dress it up. The Chocolate Brown leather is SO silky smooth and is just perfection in this style!
Stone is the perfect classy neutral
by: Noelle S.
I purchased the large Monaco in Stone. I tend towards more vibrant colors but needed a neutral and this is perfect! Great size for those who don’t carry a lot, and the magnet closure seemed strong. I made a little tassel for the front to give it a little more personality 💛
Monaco 💜 Larkspur 💜 Love
by: Karen K.
The style of the bag is just awesome. I like the large size and yet it doesn't look large when carried. Holds the things I need leaving nothing behind. Larkspur is a win!!! I just love the waxed leathers.
Sienna Large Monaco
by: Elizabeth H.
I love my new bag. It fits the same items as my Large Sloan. I like the way it lays on my hip. I will be investing in another color.
I wasn’t going to buy it…
by: Sarah Y.
I saw this lovely bag online and thought it wasn’t for me so didn’t order it. I went to the Seattle store in person with no intention of getting it and fell instantly in love with a small nutmeg. I wasn’t leaving without it. It’s very boho looking in the pebbly leather…especially with matching tassel I bought with it! It’s a tad smaller than I usually carry but didn’t love the large and was obsessed with the small so I’ll just carry less.
Supple
by: Penny B.
This purse in wasabi is the perfect purse! It is soft and supple. This bag in size large is the perfect size for me. All of my usual things I carry fit just right. I’d love to get this in every color!
