It a nice looking pebbled leather, but it doesn't look any different from other pebbled leathers they've had, nothing special as far as looks......Maybe it has a better texture though?
A lot of the recent leathers have left a lot to be desired in the 'feel appeal'. The leather just isn't nice and squishy, too many of their leathers have been too stiff and plastic like.
The first 'generation' of Kelsey bags had soft 'petable' leather, the second round had stiff plastic feeling leather.
Sadly, i agree just this past week i was at a boutique and i was a bit taken aback by the feel of some of the new bags. Not what i was expecting ...
