Portland Leather Goods Mini Crossbody Purse vs Portland Leather Goods Crossbody Purse

Both are Portland Leather full-grain crossbodies, but they are not the same bag. The Mini is a new, small tote with an outside pocket and a snap or zipper closure; the Medium is a gently used, unlined bag with an interior pocket in Meadow (purple). Buy the Mini if you want a new, compact everyday bag with quick phone access. Buy the Medium if you want more room and an inside pocket and don't mind a used bag. No prices were given for either, so compare current listings on Deal.ai before deciding.

    Questions and answers

    Which is better for everyday errands?
    The Mini is built for errands: it is petite, has an outside pocket for your phone, and comes new. The Medium holds more but has no outside pocket.
    Which holds more?
    The Medium. The Mini is a petite tote that fits a wallet, phone, keys and small items. The Medium gives you extra room plus an interior pocket.
    Is the used Medium worth it over a new Mini?
    Only if you need the extra space and interior pocket and the used condition is acceptable. A new Mini gives you a closure choice and no wear. Compare the actual prices on Deal.ai.
    Which strap is more adjustable?
    The Mini's strap adjusts from 39 to 48 inches and an extender is sold separately. The Medium's strap is adjustable but its length range is not listed.
    Does either bag have an interior pocket?
    The Medium has an interior pocket. The Mini has none, which is a common complaint; it only has an outside front pocket.
    Which lasts longer?
    Both use full-grain leather, which wears well. The new Mini starts with no wear; the used Medium's life depends on its current condition.
