Is this real leather??

No it isn't, the picture of this looks awesome. When I received mine I was highly disappointed the shine is not as it appears also the embossing is not that detailed. Just so you know also the paper is that very heavy pulpish material.I wanted that style of paper, however if you want to use a fountain pen it's very hard to write and the ink soaks up in the paper. Hope this May have answered some questions.

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 said that it was so I'm hoping it was true to it's word. From what I recall, as I gave it as a gift a while ago, it felt pretty sturdy and like bound leather. Stiff, not soft. Hope this helps.

No, it is pleather. The outside looks fairly realistic and not like vinyl, but the inside is a coarse fabric mesh bonded to the pleather. It does meet my needs though.

As Shannon mentioned, the paper is thick handmade paper without any sizing, so fountain pens tend to bleed quite a bit with a fair amount of shadowing on the reverse side of the page.

It sure looks and feels like real leather. I gave it to my college age daughter and she loved it.

I honestly don't know if it's "real" leather BUT it's great material either way. I would guess it would cost more if it were "real" leather. I bought one for each grandson for Christmas they love them and they are very easy to clean. Well worth the money and better material than the ones in stores. Believe me I looked everywhere before I decided to try these because the ones in stores looked so cheap. Great value for the price!

No it is not real leather. It is actually made of plastic, as I'd call it. This is what anyone would expect for the price.

I think it's real leather, but not 100% sure. So far it's been pretty durable. Doesn't scratch or peel like bonded leather or vinyl, and we'be been rough on it.

Not exactly sure, but definitely is not real leather. If anything, it has more of a plastic / vinyl feel to it, but it's still very nice looking.

I think it's fake leather, but it's high quality and very durable. My pair are 2 years old and look new.

It states real leather but I'm not sure if it is. Whatever it is, the material is good quality.

the booklet stated Genuine Leather but I don't know it's real leather or not since I don't own one. Overall the sofa looks great and leather is quality. Hope this helps.

To be honest I'm not quite sure. It looks and feels to be real leather but I think it is synthetic.

It is NOT real leather. However, it is nicely finished, and looks very much like leather.

I'm not sure if it's genuine leather however it's not plastic either. All I can say is I had it for some time now and it wears very well and it looks really professional. It was a great buy and would highly recommend the purchase .

I just got mine and I dont think so. Its nice, seems well made but, leather I dont think so. No smell, doesnt spot with water, mink oil sits on it and doesnt soak in and the edges are way to nice for leather. Not to mention the liner. Its made to look like suede. That would be over kill with real leather. Then there is the price. It would be a Class A knock-off in one of those places. Just my two cents. I'll still keep it. The fit is nice and that is more important.
