About Portland Leather:

Portland Leather Goods was established in early 2016 by our founder, Curtis Matsko. Before Portland Leather Goods, you couldn’t find a simply designed, affordable bag made from high quality, full-grain leather. To get a beautiful full grain leather bag, you had to spend a fortune. We’re proud to make a leather bag with classic appeal at a price everyone can feel good about.

At Portland Leather Goods, we are proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all team members. We do not discriminate based on race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation or identity, age, disability, veteran status, or any other protected status.
