This item is in good-great condition! It has wrinkles/striations and some character marks. I've carried it approx. 3 times and still has so much life left! I'm only selling because I prefer pebbled leathers. 💖 This is real full-grain leather with brass hardware. 👜 The inside is the raw side of the hide and is soft like suede. This item will develop a beautiful patina as it ages! Purchased from Portland Leather Goods.
