Our take on the Portland Leather Goods Almost Perfect Aspen Shoulder Bag

The Almost Perfect Aspen is a full-grain leather shoulder bag from Portland Leather Goods, sold as a factory-second version of the standard Aspen with cosmetic flaws only. It is unlined and unstructured, with a pebbled finish, a zip top, an adjustable strap with a 9 to 13.5 inch drop, and internal pockets. The Large measures 13.5 inches wide and tall with 5.5 inches of depth, so it swallows a laptop, water bottle and daily extras. Rivals at this size are usually lined and stiffer; the Aspen trades structure for slouch and light weight. Owners rate it highly for the leather and roominess, and the recurring complaints are the lack of lining, few internal pockets and the cosmetic flaws that come with the Almost Perfect grade.

Best forEveryday work and errand carryShoppers who want full-grain leather without paying for a lined, structured bagCarrying a laptop, bottle and pouch in one bagShoulder carrying at a short or long drop
Pros
  • Full-grain pebbled leather that softens and darkens with use
  • Large size holds a laptop and a full day of extras
  • Adjustable strap spans a 9 to 13.5 inch drop for shoulder or crossbody wear
  • Zip top keeps contents covered in a slouchy, open bag
  • Unlined and unstructured, so it stays light for its size
Cons
  • Unlined interior shows the rough leather back and offers little padding
  • Few internal pockets, so small items need their own pouches
  • Almost Perfect grade means visible cosmetic flaws, and they vary by unit
  • Slouchy body can sag and lose shape when lightly loaded
  • Wide 0.75 inch strap can dig in when the bag is packed heavy

Questions and answers

What does Almost Perfect mean on this bag?
It is a factory-second grade: the bag has cosmetic flaws such as marks, uneven grain or stitching, but the leather and construction are the same as the standard Aspen. Flaws vary by unit, and many buyers say theirs are hard to spot.
How does it compare with the standard Aspen?
Same leather, size and adjustable strap, but the Almost Perfect version carries visible cosmetic flaws and is sold as a second. If you want a flawless bag, the standard Aspen is the safer pick.
Will the Large fit a laptop?
Yes. At 13.5 inches wide and tall with 5.5 inches of depth, the Large takes most 13 to 14 inch laptops along with a bottle and pouches. The Medium is better for lighter daily carry.
Is the bag lined?
No. The Aspen is unlined, so the rough side of the leather shows inside. Small items need their own pouches, and there are only a few internal pockets.
Can it be worn crossbody?
The strap adjusts from a 9 to 13.5 inch drop, which allows shoulder wear and, for many people, crossbody wear. Check the drop against your height before choosing.
How should I care for the leather?
Wipe with a dry cloth and keep it away from prolonged moisture. Condition sparingly with a leather conditioner; the pebbled full-grain finish darkens and softens naturally with use.
