Introducing the Cleveland Midsize Backpack, a slightly smaller version of our beloved original. This backpack is designed for those who prefer a more streamlined silhouette without sacrificing style or functionality. Crafted from butter-soft leather, it features the same elegant pleat detailing and contrast stitching that define the Cleveland Collection. The spacious front zip compartment, along with an additional zip pocket, provides ample room for your daily essentials.
American Leather Co. uses high-quality, genuine leather to guarantee durability and ensure the butter softness promised, consistently delivered. We recommend conditioning it regularly and finishing it with leather protector to keep it looking its best. Here's our favorite. Spot clean it with a damp cloth as needed.

"Love this bag it’s my to go everyday the leather so nice and made with quality if you buy one you won’t be let down. Awesome backpack"
"After suffering shoulder discomfort from my crossbody purse, I decided I needed a backpack. I wanted something that would look nice in various contexts, and I was super picky about the size. This one is perfect! It holds just as much as my old purse (maybe even more, it's surprisingly roomy!), but isn't so big that I look like a student or a parent with a diaper bag. I wasn't sure how I'd feel about zipper closures after a decade with the ease of a flap, but everything still feels easily accessible (especially the little vertical front pocket!) while feeling very secure when I swing it on and off my shoulders. The amount and arrangement of pockets is great for organizing, the color (Cafe Latte) is gorgeous, and it feels high quality. Seemingly small things like the nylon fabric on the underside of the leather straps for comfort and ease show their attention to detail. I expect this bag to last me many years of daily use. So happy with my purchase! Highly recommend!"
"Great sized backpack. I’m a petite woman and this midsize is perfect for me. Doesn’t overwhelm my frame. I would love to see an East West medium sized crossbody bag. Like the Cleveland which would be nice for a key fob chain and an outside zipper compartment for my iPhone with case. Thank you!"
"This is by far the best leather bag/purse I’ve ever owned. I’m usually a Coach or D&B person and have been for over 20 years, and even though I have loved them all they are “heavy “. No matter if it’s just your wallet and phone it’s heavy. BUT with this BEAUTIFUL HAND CRAFTED BAG it’s lightweight to begin with and I put everything I wanted in it and it’s still easy to carry. The creative pocket assembly is perfect. I definitely recommend this bag."
"When it comes to leather goods today, theres an oversaturation of cheap yet expensive options. I saw a lady with this bag and had to find out more. Boy, am I glad I did! I ordered the Cleveland mid-size in Café latte. It's amazing! Smells incredible. Squish leather. The organization aspect is huge for me. You can wear one strap on your shoulder and of course wear it as a backpack. The leather is high quality. Straps are comfortable. The lining is great. I'm so impressed!"
"Beautifully made and I feel secure when I carry it!"
"It's the size of backpack I always wanted, its hard to find with other brands. Soft leather and not heavy to carry, and the extra pockets are the a plus for me! Thank you! Excellent."
"LOVE LOVE . . . . Exactly as expected all around"
"This is the perfect size bag and is deceivingly roomy. Please offer it in more colors - like olive!"
"Love the deep rich color. The compact size is perfect. Cant wait to use it on my next vacation."
