    Nice try, but it most certainly isn’t. Especially compared to recycled materials such as their new one:

    The FineWoven material was also designed with the earth in mind — it’s made from 68 percent post-consumer recycled content and significantly reduces carbon emissions compared to leather.

      I’ve had a leather belt for over 20 years and wear it every day.

      Beats the crap out of any other material in the longevity department as far as I’m concerned.

        I’ve had a leather iPhone case for almost a year and I use it everyday.

        It definitely does not beat the crap out of any other material. It looks like shit. Not even a good patina - it just looks like ass.
