Decided to pull this cheerful color out today as we are expecting more snow later so I needed a pick me up.
It’s not really very pebbled but it is very pretty. It was very overcast yesterday. The color is much prettier in real life.
I stumbled onto Facebook ads for this company and of course had to come here to check out the bags! How have they held up so far? Do they get fairly heavy? Curious if anyone has bought the backpacks and how they are they liking them? So tempted to buy something!
I have the large circle and I love it. I have quite a few of their bags because they come in so many different leathers and colors. Mine are holding up very well but I also rotate them a lot . I have shoulder issues so I stick mostly with the mini crossbody style or the circle bag as they are not heavy.
Thank you for the info! I have some back problems, so I've been drawn to smaller leather bags as well! I ended up buying the large black circle bag and the grey mini crossbody for now after seeing your pictures in this thread!
I love red bags, so I might look at one of the cranberry bags next after receiving these two.Congrats! I don’t have the grey so I am very curious about it. Enjoy them both and please post pictures when you get them .Thank you for the info! I have some back problems, so I've been drawn to smaller leather bags as well!

I've seen this thread pop up to the top several times and was curious what this brand is all about, and read through all the posts in one sitting. I'm really liking what I've seen from PLG! With the pandemic and everything going on, I think I'm really craving a simple, well-made, no-fuss bag with a rustic vibe. Right now I'm leaning towards a mini crossbody in merlot, cranberry, or green (although I may change my mind anytime 
)
@dcooney4 , your rainbow of minis is so pretty. Out of all of them, which one do you think has the nicest leather in your opinion? I'm big on leather and reading the description of each colour on the PLG website, I think they all feel different. And would it be okay if you take a photo of oxblood and merlot side-by-side? I can't quite tell the shade difference on their website.
Thank you!

It is merlot, Oxblood and cranberry. Hope that helps.
Thank you, very helpful photo, it shows each bag's leather texture very well. I appreciate this. Your bags are lovely and I can see why everyone here loves PLG. The cranberry is such a deep, saturated red.
I don't really have a favorite leather. Sometimes I go for the more casual vibe and softer to the touch which is the merlot , deep water or green. Those are thicker leathers but have a soft feel. If I want a more classic look I go for the smooth black , grizzly or the pebbled oxblood. Then the others are just fun with colors.
Thank you! I hope to get a mini crossbody soon and will post a photo here once I officially join the PLG club
My bags came so quickly! I love the leather! It smells amazing and so soft and smooth! I’m eyeing another bag already! Thank you for all the pics in this thread! ❤❤❤
I'm so tempted to buy more haha, are the mystery boxes always the almost perfect types?
