I have been searching for a structured bag that could hold all my daily items (wallet, readers, and other zippered bags) plus my water bottle. I wanted it to have space to hold my Bible and notebook, or laptop and textbook, or laptop and journal...all depending on what my day holds. And......it does just that. I opted for the North/South and added a canvas organizer. My laptop can slip behind it (put it on its short end). If I put the zippered canvas organizer on its side, I can put my 48 oz. water bottle along side, and still fit in a book or Bible study. I would definitely order again. The nutmeg color goes with everything.

I was looking for a perfect work bag. This was ALMOST it. Fits my laptop and a few other things, but I need even bigger (so excited foe its oversized sister to launch). Bought in smooth black letter and it looks great, expensive and classic.

I started out looking at the E/W but it wasn't available in the color I wanted so I went with the N/S. It exceeds expectations! It is beautiful and holds a lot!

I absolutely love this purse! The quality exceeded my expectations — the material feels durable yet soft, and the stitching is very well done. It’s the perfect size: roomy enough to hold my wallet, phone, keys, and a few extras without feeling bulky. I especially love the interior compartments because they keep everything organized and easy to find.
The strap is comfortable on my shoulder, and the overall design is stylish but still practical for everyday use. I’ve already received several compliments on it! Definitely worth the purchase, and I would buy it again.

I got this Lola because I needed a great bag to use as a carry-on for travel and also to use to take to lengthy medical appointments. This bag is beautiful and roomy and can hold everything I need to pack with me. Love that I can use as a cross-body or just grab the handles and go! I have the zippered one so everything stays nice and secure. The outside pocket is great for my phone - easy access!

Great bag! This is my second bag purchased from Portland Leather and the quality is awesome. It’s lightweight, the color is perfect (chocolate brown), and it’s exactly what I needed as my work bag.

I really love the North /South large Lola zipper tote. I can fit a laptop, change of clothes toiletry bag, curling iron mini hair dryer and a book in this amazing bag. The zipper is a huge bonus for me especially for storing the bag under the seat on a flight. I wish it was available in every color!! The black is a classic

The Lola is absolutely Amazing! It has everything I wanted! Stunning color, not too hard or soft leather, just enough where it stands on its own, a couple of pockets with the zipper! I love the height and the options of short or crossbody, so I can be hands free! The Lola also holds everything I need to have with me, so I don’t have to a separate purse like I had been doing! Love my Lola!

I loved the EW style from when I first saw it, but there was a beautiful pebbled black in the in store clearance that I couldn't put down. Looking forward to getting a larger camera bag insert to upgrade to this so I can carry more accessories.

Night Owl is a beautiful navy blue pebbled leather. The bag is well make of high quality leather. I am currently using my new bag for school, I can fit my laptop, books, notebook, water bottle and still have room for glasses and small make up bag.
It’s a great tote I will be using mine for years.

I purchased my Cowboy Blue Lola in an outlet store my first in person shopping experience. I’m very happy with the size and the color and the zipper feature. I love using as my man purse but the size is great for Bible study, books, journals and my MacBook. Very versatile!

I purchased the Chestnut EW Lola based on an in‑store recommendation and was pleasantly surprised by the color and leather texture. The EW Lola fit is perfect. While I love the color now, it’s not one I would have confidently chosen online. Having a local store where I could see and feel the leather made all the difference.

I love the bag. First time purchasing from this company and no regrets. Can't wait to order more!!

Let’s just say that I was excited to go to work after getting this bag! The size is perfect to hold everything that I need! The leather is beautiful- so soft and the smell!!! It’s definitely a quality made item that will last me for a long time! I received multiple compliments on day one carrying it!!

The N/S Lola has become one of my favorite carries as it is large enough to use “tote style” but elegant enough to carry as a classy purse/bag. Berry good is just divine. A Luxurious smooth leather that does not scuff up or scratch and is just the right type of loveliness dressed up in raspberry pink!

Easy to dress up or dress down. Can be used as a work bag or just as something fun to hold more items.

She holds everything I need, including my water bottle, and the color is SO FUN!! Another win for my PLG collection!

I love my E/W Lola with a zipper. I’m able to carry my laptop, water bottle, wallet, chapstick, and hand lotion in there with plenty of room to spare. Soft leather. Looks great. I use it on my shoulder most often. The cross-body straps kind of hurts when it is too heavy.
