I LOVE and daily carry the medium zipper crossbody in the smooth black leather. I just ordered the black zipper oversized tote for when I’m camping in the hospital with my family members! I’m gonna try to add D-rings for when I need to go crossbody-hands free! There’s a 30% off code today! Couldn’t resist! Ty for your videos! I love them all! ♥️

[@samplans]

The medium is a great size! Enjoy your new tote!

[@kimsteiner9384]

Thanks, Sam, for another fun video! I am hooked on all things Portland Leather and planners! I always look forward to your videos!

[@samplans]

Thank you so much! I will have a PLG video next week that you won’t want to miss!

[@Chrismiss1218]

I am obsessed with PLG lately! I really appreciate your detailed reviews.

[@samplans]

Thank you so much!

[@michaelklinkner7557]

I gravitate toward the medium nutmeg CB👜 TFS

[@RG-yf3uj]

TFS Sam. These videos are always so helpful. You answered a couple things I've been wondering about so I appreciate you doing these videos. Really hope they make more colors of the notebook cover soon.

[@samplans]

Me too!

[@Bluenaomi]

Oh wow I was looking for a video on the bucket lagoon color lol thanks! The mini tote was my first choice but sold out while I was trying to decide if I wanted lol the large looked kind of big but ur video helped me :)

[@amberslilrose3954]

I was just feeling like I want to watch a nice good Portland leather video! Thank you!

[@samplans]

Yay!

[@ClutchingPearlz]

I love my satsuma tote backpack, so versatile and comfortable on shoulders and it fits a lot!

[@samplans]

I’ve been so close to ordering that one. This Nutmeg is 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 though. I’m trying to be a little more careful with my acquisitions. 😅

[@dianemills7811]

Well Sam, you did it again! Just ordered the backpack that you love so much! Ordered cognac for the first time. Been tossing it around for months and you helped me decide. Early birthday present for me (April)….. and no….I will not be waiting until then to use ❤

[@samplans]

Yay!! That is a perfect birthday gift! I adore Cognac too, great choice!

[@j4hrul391]

Wish they would bring back Dune! It's so pretty!!

[@samplans]

I still don’t know why they discontinued it! It is so wonderful!

[@debm9322]

No questions from me. Loved loved every minute of that and have checked out the store (love their shoes!!) for the first time. Will have to figure out exchange and shipping to 🇨🇦 . Back pack is what really caught my eye and the medium cross body tote and the utility bag…accordion wallet and…😂. Thanks for sharing!!

[@samplans]

If you need any help…I would be happy to be your postal worker. I can get rates from home for weights of pretty much anything you would want shipped from PLG. It makes me sad when others can’t get it. Of course the extra shipping may not be worth it to you, everyone is different.

[@well.loved.notebook]

I got a wallet in Lagoon and agree with everything you said. It’s gorgeous!

[@samplans]

Did you see the release of the medium crossbody in Lagoon today?

[@mellodi]

Lagoon is a beautiful colour! I am not from US so with shipment and customs any such order would probably be my salary so I just watch. But I've had a horrible day today and you just really helped me to relax. So thank you 😘 And on the whole I prefer backpacks but I have transferred to nylon materials because I have back issues and nylon/material bags are much lighter.

[@samplans]

The PLG backpacks are very comfortable, but they aren’t as light as nylon, for sure. I hope you are able to get your hands on one of these bags one day, they are so nice! Where are you?

[@mellodi]

@@samplans The PLG products look great and I like that they are US made not a big, corporate brand where the cost is mostly logo. I'm from Poland so the calculation rate is about 4 times the price. Maybe more considering the difference in income 🤔

[@samplans]

Yes, much more affordable than pressed pieces of “leather” from the big brands.

[@lizburrowschapin2871]

So far I love my black triangle in non pebble

[@samplans]

I will also get a triangle in black! So nice!

[@user-qw9ro7jm7n]

Great video. I’m new to PLG. What is the color of your medium classic tote that you showed second on this video? I love it. Also, have you ever put a laptop in that medium classic tote? Thank you.

[@everfamily-nq9jp]

Dear Sam you made me fall in love with PLG I I order my second MINI in Honey, and now im in tears because I"m now in love with this LAGOON color one and Its not available I cant find it anywhere. Im heart broken :(.... thanks for all your reviews...

[@kierbear2008]

Suggestion: show how they look on you held all the ways.

[@samplans]

I get it, but that’s difficult with my setup.

[@jessicacollins8049]

I wonder if the first bag would make a good knitting/everyday bag. Backpacks just dont work.

[@samplans]

A large or medium tote would work great!

[@itsallstraw]

If you had to pick one backpack…bucket or tote which would it be? I’m trying to decide on my first PLG bag. I don’t carry much but I like the security of the tote and the compactness of the bucket! So indecisive!

[@samplans]

Oh gosh. Well, I love them both, but I choose the tote backpack far more than the bucket. It’s one of my favorite bags ever in my entire life.

[@MummyBrown]

Omg, this comes out JUST as I’m trying to talk myself out of a discounted medium tote 😂 DAMN

[@samplans]

Oops. 😂

[@NicoleCeleste]

Do you think lagoon scratches easily ? I am loving the color but for pebbled leather don’t want to see scratches 😂. Thank you for the video. ❤ I also love all your purses !!

[@samplans]

Hi there! I am not rough on my bags, but I haven’t noticed it scratching easily. The wallet gets a lot of use and it doesn’t have any either.

[@rsdenimblues8342]

How many PLG bags do you own?

[@salenathomas5105]

Where did you get the butterfly’s behind you decor? I love it so much

[@samplans]

World Market!

[@salenathomas5105]

@@samplans thank you!

[@michelezeigler6167]

Does PLG manufacture items in USA?

[@samplans]

PLG started in Portland, artisans in Mexico now create the bags.

[@arlenet.1520]

Hi Sam! Your haircut looks good…love it! I tried using your ambassador code during the end of holiday season from one of your old videos! It didn’t work and I emailed them and it took a long time for them to respond to my inquiry why it didn’t work. No clear response they just gave me a different coupon. And now well they are sold out of the oversized bags that I want for our trips because of the sales. I’m gravitating to that Lagoon color it’s different than what I would pick, maybe I will get one in a mystery box. For a trip, do you recommend the full size crossbody or the zipped backpack? Thanks for making this video and taking the time to explain all the features…I will start to build my collection soon since I am noticing my shoulder is starting to hurt when I carry a bag on my shoulder these days. Take care!

[@samplans]

Thanks for trying! They did away with the codes due to bots. But if you click my link (thank you so much if you do!) It depends on the amount you need to carry, honestly. I think the most comfortable carry is the backpack, because I don’t find a crossbody strap incredibly comfortable. I adore Lagoon, it’s such a pretty color!

[@arlenet.1520]

@@samplans Hi! I will definitely use your new links now. I will look into the backpack more. Thank you for your response! You are always so helpful! Have a great day!

[@renee4883]

I have a small bucket and love it but I tend to wear crossbody and I find the buckle on the strap just digs in on my back. I could just switch shoulders but I just can’t do that. lol wondering if you have any issue with that?

[@samplans]

No, but maybe I carry it differently, or carry less?

[@kierbear2008]

Medium tote seems so small. Is it bigger or smaller than the large bucket? I was eyeing OS.

[@samplans]

I guess it just depends on what you need to carry. The medium tote is the perfect size for me.

[@lynnconroy8]

I’m wondering where you got the butterfly hanging, behind you?

[@samplans]

World Market! I think they still have them.

[@marcyodell3373]

Look at all those beauties 😍😍😍

[@samplans]

Getting closer. 🫶🏻
