  2. I am a second year leather working student. I am no leather expert. The leather is unknown, I don't think it's the best quality.I bought it to practice, its cheap, It looks good but it's prone to scars. I don't care about the scars doh. I gives what they call cachet in French. It also learned me to watch out for scars. The lining is Grey pigskin Greetings from Belgium
