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.
Because leather is a natural material, variations in color, grain, and texture are expected. Differences in hides, dye absorption, and production batches may result in slight variations between products and from the images shown. These natural characteristics are not considered defects and are part of what makes each piece unique.

Love this bag, this is my second Neruda style but this time I went for the "medium" it's really more on the large side which I LOVE. I was fortunate enough to grab a Pebbled Olive and it is just the most perfect Fall color. Currently my EDC, I have an Eclipse pouch, Pinch Pouch, Alpine, small wrap journal, fortune cookie, Rancher & my wristlet with room to spare. I'm a thick & top heavy girl, the last notch on the strap works perfectly as a crossbody.
A
I wasn’t going to try the Neruda - but when it came out in pebbled olive I had to give it a go! The small size is an excellent small bag - it’s actually bigger and roomier than my small Monaco. Definitely a new favorite - everyone needs Neruda!
P
The Neruda Medium in Chili Red is not my first bag but it is by far my favorite! The color is fantastic and it has so much room with the right amount of slouchy. I’m loving the adjustable strap. Great quality and value. I highly recommend this bag.
M
Large interior, and ant more pebbled leather options
N
This is my third time trying a pebbled black Neruda, and I finally won! The leather was squishy and soft and not stiff and shiny like the others I tried. I’m a fan!
J
It’s a shame PLG doesn’t make more bags in pebble olive 🫒 It is by far one of the most beautiful bags I own. Now for the Neruda! The small is absolutely perfect for my needs it fits so much! I can carry my large Margold, my lovebug plus wallet and my Hobonichi with room for more!! It’s fantastic. The only downside size if I do carry more than my basics it does get heavy and start to hurt my shoulder.
S
The planetary medium neruda is bigger than I thought it would be. But I'm here for it! I love the color, the look, and the feel. 🤩
S
What a gorgeous color! The medium Neruda is a large bag with tons of space. The magnetic closure is also my favorite. I received an incredibly pebbly bag with tons of character. It makes me think of dinosaur skin! 🫒💚
K
Love the style and shape of the Neruda bag. This one was a must have for me. Just the right size for wallet of choice along with your other essentials and give you the classy look you’re looking for. Only problem I had was deciding on which color to buy. I wanted them all!
M
I’ve been waiting for this medium Neruda in pebbled olive. It is so spacious and easy to get into. I did modify it to be shoulder carry and change out the strap but I left my Sienna alone so both ways work well!
M
Very cute. Holds all my essentials and even more if I skip using all my littles. My keys still get one, but other items can just travel losely or in the pocket.
Would love it even more if strap was detachable on both ends for just a shoulder carry
A
Neruda crossbody in pebbled olive is stunning! I can't take my eyes off of her 😍
D
Love the small Neruda!! Such an amazing bag!!
D
The small Neruda is one of my fave bags!
P
The Neruda is a really great bag if you love crossbody style! The magnetic top closure is great. The crossbody strap is adjustable which helps when you are 5’2”! I purchased the Cobalt Blue which is super soft and squishy! I definitely need to get some littles or a purse organizer insert to help separate all my stuff. I’m already scouting for my next(second) PLG bag.
S
My new fav! Love this bag.
K
The small size is a pretty generous size! About the same width as a mini crossbody tote, just not as tall. Pebbled Olive is such a nice chunky pebble!
S
Beautiful leather in a beautiful style!
L
Neruda- small but carries a lot. Cold Brew is a rich, deep brown that goes with everything. I added a D-ring on the flap to add interest. This is a versatile bag that I use often. Love it!
A
I received her in small and I think this is going to be the perfect size for me.
A
Such a great fall color! Pebbled Olive.
J
I went in to the store looking for something else entirely, but fell in love with the Medium Neruda instead. I held off that day, but it stuck with me, and I ended up ordering online. I love her! Though initially a little hesitant that it didnt have a good 1:1 organizer fit, I have a few things that tend to find themselves outside of the organizer anyway: a taco tassel pouch, a small pinch pouch, and a couple squeeze eyeglass cases. I feel like it works out, and my bag is a sensory happy zone to reach in to. It's stunning in Nutmeg, but Im dying for a Pebbled Olive now!!
