I got the Nolita too and I found that the leather is quite nice and soft on it. I’m actually worried about scratching it!I'm not too tied to the Nolita so that tells me to return it. Leather quality is important to me so when something feels plasticky like this, I know that I won't reach for it. If all I end up with is the scarf, I'm okay with that since the dragon is super large and the focal point. I wouldn't mind checking out the Coach LNY Asia exclusive bags, but I'd probably need to check out the leather first lol.
