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 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.
Full Grain: Meticulously sourced from the finest hides, this premium material boasts unique textures and character, showcasing nature's artistry at its best. As time passes, watch as its surface develops a unique patina, telling your personal journey through the years. Unlike processed leathers, full grain leather stands the test of time, due to its unmatched strength and resilience. Its dense fibers offer exceptional resistance to wear, cuts, and moisture, our full grain leather ensures lasting beauty that only gets better with age.
Top Grain: Top-grain starts from the same premium zone of the hide but is lightly sanded and finished for a more uniform surface. That light correction softens and evens the face while keeping most of the strength you want. Takes pigment and protective finishes beautifully, which helps with colorfastness and stain resistance. Ages gracefully, especially when we keep the finish thin enough to let the leather breathe and break in.
We use top-grain when a smoother cosmetic is the goal—think color consistency across large panels—without walking away from the core strength you expect from a Portland bag.
Pebbled: Unlike most brands that use artificial stamping methods to create patterns, our pebbled leather is achieved through a natural tumbling process. The distinctive raised, pebble-shaped texture adds sophistication and makes a bold statement wherever you go. But it's not just about looks—pebbled leather is built to last. Worried about daily wear and tear? Don’t be! The unique pebbled surface ages gracefully, developing a natural patina that will evolve for years to come!
Suede: Our suede leather begins with an intricate process: the hide is split to separate the soft underside from the top layer. This top layer is then tanned, buffed, sanded, and dyed to create the signature velvety texture that defines high-quality suede. Naturally slouchy and pliable, suede leather ages gracefully, developing a rich patina that tells its own story over time. Most natural imperfections are gently smoothed away during production, while subtle traces—like healed veining and the soft, napped surface—are preserved to celebrate the leather’s unique character and charm.

Probably my favorite "big" bag.
by: Donna M.
The color, the quality, the multi-strap option. What's not to love?! It zips, it fits on my shoulder or as a cross body. It's large enough to hold my iPad and my laptop, along with both chargers and other littles!
Great work bag
by: isabelle m.
My dad got me this one in Honey with the zipper for my job and it's great. I need a separate bag for my computer but thats because my work gave us 16 inch laptops instead of 13 inch ones like I was told originally. I'm gonna be so sad to see this one go if it doesn't get saved. I would love a green one. Here is all that I fit inside. The leather is super smooth and nice and structured.
Electric Blue Crossbody
by: Christie W.
Blue is one of my favorite colors. When the crossbody tote came out in this color, I knew I had to have it. I love using this style for carrying files and my laptop.
Plum Crossbody Tote with Zipper
by: Becky H.
This is my new everyday Teacher bag! Along with being my favorite color, it carries everything I need for work, including snacks, planner, and my PL lavendar pouches, taco, and mini-dopp bags. The leather is pebbled and soft and the zipper is for extra security to keep my items from falling out. So happy with this purchase! 💜
New addiction
by: SH
I love my new tote. This was my first Portland Leather purchase, and my new every-day bag. I got the zipper version, though I have rarely used the zipper yet. It's a good size, and the honey color is beautiful. I took off the crossbody strap, but am glad to have the option to put it back on if I choose to. So far it's been rained on, and even gotten a little bit dirty, but it has wiped up and dried nicely with no stains remaining. Bonus, it smells really good. The honey color does hold it's shape pretty well, but sometimes gets a bit slouchy if I don't load it properly. I like the firmer and less slouchy so that I can see everything inside easier.
Great Carry!
by: T.K.
I love the FSCB! It sits comfortably on my shoulder and I can also wear it as a crossbody. It doubles as my work tote and my purse. I am bummed this bag is being discontinued. It is definitely one of my top two PLG styles.
PLG Never Disappoints!
by: Jessica
I love every bag I own from PLG, but I think the zippered Crossbody Tote may be my favorite! It’s roomy enough for all my essentials and compact enough to carry comfortably for the day. And the cold brew color may be new favorite too!
Y'all should just buy this tote.
by: Leslie J.
I waited a while to write this review. You know, till the "honeymoon period" was over. Ive had it a couple of months now, so I feel like I can give an honest opinion. I bought the Full Size Crossbody Tote in Honey and I L-O-V-E it. I'm officially PLG obsessed. I was deliberating between the FSCB and the Classic Totes, and I'm really glad I got this one. I like the vertical rectangle shape of this one more than the horizontal rectangle of the classic. I can fit everything I need, (and I carry the kitchen sink) and I still have some space for extras (like a sweater, a book or whatever). The Honey is perfect for me as I plan to carry this as an everyday bag for the next several years. I think it's a really neutral all season color. I was worried about scratches and damage, but the scratches I've put on it so far I have been able to massage out a little just with the oils in the leather and my skin. They pretty much disappear. Love it!!
Perfect crossbody bag
by: Katia
I am loving my bag, it’s the perfect size, super comfy and well made. Plus the color is just gorgeous.
Loving my new Bag
by: Irma T.
I am happy with my new bag. The quality is so good. I love the smell.
FSCB Cognac
by: Kathryn R.
I love this bag! This was my first PLG purchase. It’s a great size for me, I’m 5’7”. I love the zipper and how you don’t notice it when not zipped but it makes the top edge look more finished in my opinion. Cognac is such a classy color, has structure yet so soft and smells wonderful. The handles are very comfortable on my shoulder and love how I can also use as a crossbody.
FSCB's rock!
by: Mimi E.
I have a FSCB in Cognac and purchased one in Dakota for my sister. Love it. I like the open rather than zippered and add a magnetic closure. Perfect larger bag for a day out!
Beautiful!
by: jaime h.
This bag is stunning! The quality is amazing, the leather and the hardware. It’s a perfect size for a work bag, easily fitting my laptop and files inside.
Beauty
by: Tetje D.
These bags are stunning and worth every penny. The quality is awesome. The hardware is the perfect metal. I carry everything in this tote!
Beautiful bag
by: Angela C.
This is my everyday work bag and I love having the long strap for a crossbody option. It fits my planner, iPad, a file folder along with a small makeup bag with room to spare. The cognac color is just as rich and beautiful as pictured. If like me, you’re a fan of simple, quality leather bags sans designer names & logos, get this bag!
Customer Reviews
I only own one of these in Honey, but I do love it. I don't get a lot of use as I'd like because it is NS instead of EW... but I love it. It is the second bag I've ever purchased and one I'll cherish. Perfect to hold all my work supplies too.
Perfect everyday or office bag.
I love that this large tote can be carried on the shoulder or cross body. So many give you one or the other. And the bright colors are so fun!
This is my first Tote Bag and I only purchased it because it is in Coral!!
I didn’t get the Zip one. I procrastinated to long lol
I took it with me on a Cross Country trip out West and it held everything and more!
I am waiting for another color to come out that I love to get another one.
I have wanted an Aquarius bag for so long, and she is even more beautiful in person! Very squishy and soft! The Crossbody is fast becoming one of my favorite bags because I can fit so much into it and carrying it crossbody is so comfortable!
