Is the leather smooth tanned leather or is it suede? In the photo it looks like suede.

Its smooth on the outside and suede on the inside. The outside leather surface isn't highly treated - it marks quite easily, but for me this is a big selling point. Within a short time the notebook looks and feels like an object you have owned for years. Feels and 'wears' like a favorite pair of shoes or jeans. Its an intangible thing and difficult to describe. That said, rubbling a little wax polish on the leather brings it back to looking brand new (I've tried it and it works).

Judi the leather outside is smooth and tanned, not suede. when you run your finger nail it makes marks, thats the charm of it. it very basic. the inside is rough. Ok other things. The inserts a re a bitch to get. There is one person here on Amazon that had them. The ones with dates, planner, they dont even come out until December. Also when you open the pages to write in, it doesnt stay open, the pages, its a little annoying, but i love mine. I know thats alot of in. hope i answer it

It's a smooth leather but not shiny or polished like your usual handbags or shoes. Can resemble suede but is leather because the pill is in the inside if the notebook flap. A different rustic leather experience which wears nicely with no Maintenace . At first I was not to impressed but I have really enjoyed this rugged leather. I love mine and it smells great.

It is definitely smooth leather that is has a very nice heft to it. It keeps it flat.

It is 100% Polyester the front, the back, the filling inside of it. It doesn't feel leathery like suede. It is soft. Hope this will answer your question :)

It's a pretty decent grade of vinyl, looks very much like leather. Soft and supple, not stiff at all.

It is not at all like suede. It is more like a tapestry with a black background. If you have an open mind and like a dark Victorian fabric, you may like it. But if you want it to look just like this picture, you will not be happy. It's pretty, but it really does not look much at all like the picture.

The leather is just a normal type, nothing special about it. However, be careful of the legs as they break off fairly easy.

No it looks like a medium-darker tan to me in the pic. But some people my say its a light Brown

It is "faux" leather. However, for the price it is very nice. I was surprised at the quality. It is very soft to the touch and they have held up well. Ours do not get a lot of use, and if they were going to be used on a continual basis, I don't know how they would hold up, but I wouldn't hesitate to try it. We have been very satisfied with the two we purchased.

It's cream colored, a very pretty tan. Light tan. It goes very well with the black, a classy look!

It's definitely not real leather. I would say its more of a PU leather/faux leather. I've had it now for a couple of months and I really like it.

It's a manmade material (polyester made in China). Still decent though. Suede seems real and smells like it (can see light & dark color when hand is rubbed across it).

Mine is "fake leather". But looks good and not the shinny one. Very durable and for sure will last a long time.hope this helps...

It certainly seems to be leather to me. I am not an expert but it compares to other leather things I own - the inside & edges look natural (raw - dyed but not polished) and the outside has some subtle unevenness - all of which look like real hide to me.

I am not sure. It doesn't look cheap like most imitation leather items do. I thought it said it was leather when I purchased it. It looks nice, I think you'd be pleased with it.

It appears to be leather, but it isn't real leather. I love it. The couch is very nice and easily put together.

It is not real leather, but it is a really good quality vinyl. I am very happy with this product and the price was reasonable.

It's a weird hybrid. Definitely not faux leather but not the micro suede like a couch. More micro sided than faux leather.

It appears to be top grain leather with a slight pebble-like finish. It is soft to the hand and very pliable.
