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! Here is the newest one In Stardust.
I was so excited when I walked into the brand new store in Westlake and saw this beautiful Sloan! For me, the large Sloan is the perfect size for en everyday carry. Everything is easily accessible without having to dig.
I love the O/S Sloan bag! It's big enough to carry all the essentials, but not too big. The coldbrew color is rich & versatile. I expect this bag to be a staple piece in my wardrobe this fall and winter!
The large was one of my favorite bags for the longest time. Then the oversized version came out and it’s even better!
The OS Sloan is absolutely the perfect size bag. It is classy and has just enough structure. The stardust colorway makes it extra gorgeous.
This gorgeous bag is perfect. I’m not a pebble person, but I love the pebbles on this bag. I love the OS but definitely have my eye on a large next time. Great bag, with plenty of space. Perfect color that can appear both blue and my favorite color, purple, depending on the light.
Pebbled bone in medium. Just love it it's soft, very spacious. Definetly buying the grizzly.
Nutmeg is gorgeous in the small Sloan bag
Bone is classy. Clean and refreshing color of off white palette. Small is roomy and a good purse carry
This bag is a good in between size and holds more than I thought it would. Nice slouch too with nutmeg. Added a little flair with olive green zipper pulls.
I use my oversized Sloan as my cpap travel bag! It fits everything perfectly and I love that I can take my supplies through the airport without people knowing it’s my cpap.
My Dr. bag is just perfect
I wasn't sure if I was going to like the Sloan. It seemed rather plain and non-descript in photos, and I'd passed right by them in the store. Yet, PLG fans online seemed to really like it. I decided to give it a closer, in-person look. I found this pretty Orchid one in what seemed to be a good size (Large) and decided she was the one.
I got her home and loaded her up with what I'd been carrying in a Small Bucket Bag. Everything fit very well, plus a couple other items. The photo below will show how much she easily carried. I haven't had a chance to take her out yet, but she seems like she'd be an easy bag to carry all day.
Orchid is a wonderfully soft, pebbled leather that's heavily saturated with color. The dye varies over the hide adding character to the bag. The pebbling on this bag is small and uneven with striations giving it character.
All in all I would recommend you try the Sloan if you haven't yet. She's a sleeper that offers a pleasant surprise.
Love the color and size. Unfortunately came with the dreaded coldbrew odor so had to return!
I love the Sloan!! I now have the nutmeg in large and OS. Great for dressed up or down.
This is my first Sloan bag and I absolutely love this size. The unicorn color is an extra bonus!
I love this purse! Kept waiting on it but I ended up still wanting it so I got it. It is very puddly. It is not too big despite being called "oversized", which is good for me. I love the large, but the extra space in the oversized is most welcome especially for traveling. If puddly isn't your thing, don't pick Sunshine. This leather melts like a puddle 😅 I'm still getting used to it because I've always gotten more firm leathers that keep their shape. I still love this one though. It's perfect with the egg flair!
I resisted the Sloan doc bag all this time but I found a beautiful velvet brown lg at the MI store. Test packed her and brought her home. Such a rich saturated color and truly velvety.
The oversized Sloan was my first purse from PLG, and it is still a favorite style of mine. I got it in evergreen, and it goes with most of my closet.
The oversized Sloan is one of my favorite bags, and I definitely needed a versatile color to add to my collection. My black Sloan has become my every day bag.
I got a large AP Sloan in coldbrew. It’s my second of this style and I’m really happy with it, coldbrew is one of my favorite colors.
Sunshine is soooooo underrated. The Sloan is perfect sized and sunshine is so cheery and smooshie.
