Is this real leather or synthetic? The title says synthetic, but the description says PU leather...

On the outer area it is a leather look, and the inner area is a soft brushed leather. I like the look and the quality feel. I am very happy with mine!

Synthetic most likely. It has a grainy finish, which I like as it resists scratches and feels nice.

It doesn't smell like leather. Leather has a specific scent that never goes away, this doesn't smell like anything.

No it's definitely synthetic. It feels hated and slick except for the surface texture on it. Very durable.

it's like a synthetic leather with a woven fabric on top.. it's thick & durable. it's not like a plain synthetic leather

PU = Polyurethane. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyurethane Or... it's leather that smells really bad. LOL!! :)

It is synthetic and is not real looking at all; however it is GREAT if you're not worried about it not looking like real leather. It is a protective case that is functional and gets the job done.

I think PU Leather is a marketing term for a manufactured product that looks like and is textured to feel like leather (and according to Wikipedia may contain some actual leather). Some of the automotive folks have been using "PU Leather" for their auto seats of late. It smells more like polyurethane than leather to me.

I am pretty sure it is synthetic, given the price. It is of good quality and I expect it to be very durable.

I would say it is not REAL leather, but it is made from a soft material and looks just like leather. Still very classy looking.

I believe it's imitation. I don't see a "Genuine Leather" title anywhere on the product.

I think it's real leather but not sure. It's really nice. Only thing is it gets scratched easily.

It is real leather. It has not flaked, peeled or even scratched yet. we are really pleased with the quality of this piece.

I believe from what I read on Wikipedia pu leather is a very thin slice of real leather that is coated and embossed to look like real leather. A cow hide can be split into 4 layers of leather and pu leather uses one of the middle layers. I find the case to have a pleasant feel but then I haven't dealt with a lot of expensive leather. It doesn't feel like the plastic-y cases you find in discount stores--in my opinion.

I'm not sure what PU leather is...but I have these and ordered them in the brown...it is a gorgeous, rich dark brown. These are really nice bar stools, especially when compared to others this price.

Hi Atalanda. I checked mine carefully and yes,it is real leather. At least it looked real to me.I looked behind the cloth covering that is on the inside where the stitching allowed me to peek and yes, it looked real. I really like mine. Some complain that the paper is 'tissue like'. I used regular pen on mine, not fountain pen, and it works great.

It feels like real leather, but I really don't think it is. It doesn't have the smell like really leather has.

It is real leather. It is only ONE cover. It is a good deal for real leather at least when I bought it. Not super fancy and does not cover the back of the seat just the front of the seat.
