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.

Rated 4.77 out of 5 stars overall by 81 customers
This is great for a few cards and cash. Simple slim design.
I thought my husband could use this handy, dandy, slim line, little card holder. A magnet on the backside to hold some loose dollar bills, credit cards on the front.
Bought this for my nephew as a gift. Added some cash to the clip. Amazing gift idea for those young men just starting to carry a wallet.
I purchased this Varsity Card Holder for a Christmas gift. It is beautiful. The leather is really soft and the magnet holds great. I have a minimalist hubby and I think he will like it!
Bought this as a gift as he loves the money clips on wallets.
The Varsity is perfect for older kids and men. They really like beautiful leather and the color and the safety of the money and cars holder.
Great Christmas gift for my brother! I know he will love it.
My husband loves this!
I was hoping the cash holder was a good hard spring clip, but it’s just a magnet. If you have more than one bill, it won’t hold
Got this for my son for Christmas and he was surprised because he thought Mom only bought purses! Nice quality, great color, wonderful gift.
It’s a great size, color and will be a perfect gift!
This is the first PLG product I’ve purchased that has been a pure disappointment. What a drop in quality. I hope they reevaluate the items with this quality of leather.
Love that this piece has a clip and space for cards.
Great front pocket wallet
My husband loves this card holder. It’s slim, convenient and provides easy access to the card.
I purchased this for my husband to go with his Hudson bifold wallet. He really likes them both. The quality is wonderful.
Perfect for young boy first wallet
Works perfect for my husband to "downgrade" his wallet for going out or to events. Light in his pocket and the magnetic clip works great and you can fit two cards into each of the two pockets.
I snagged this small wallet for my husband when he wants something much smaller for a night out. The quality is fantastic and he loves the money clip!
Perfect as a front pocket wallet for my husband. He loved it. Great for carrying to ballgames and traveling where you don’t want to carry all of your cards or risk it being lost or stolen.
My husband has never had anything from PLG and is very picky. This is perfect for him!
Very nice and sleak. Holds just what my husband needs
The Varsity Cardholder is the perfect wallet for my teen son. He is able to carry his ID, his debit card, and maybe a gift card or 2 in the card slots (there are 2). Them his cash is held securely by the magnetic clip on the back. It’s not too big, not too small and easily fit in his pocket.
This was a perfect father's Day gift! He loved it! Great quality!
Very nice quality and a good present!
Great gift for dad!
Gave it as a Father day gift and he loves it. Been using it very frequently and loves the convenience of it.
Got this as a gift for a young teenager. He really liked the size of it not to big and he really likes the money clip.
Perfectly safe carry for anybody traveling.
Easy to access and fast to use! Holds cash and cards in a small easy to carry place .
💯 percent amazing
I love the wallet. However it could use a much stronger magnet
