The leather looks supple and that is what I like to see in leather bags. Very nice bag, I am sure the new owner will be pleased.

Nice looking bag.  The leather has a very appealing grain to it that adds character.

Very nice bag and as other's have mentioned supple leather makes for a nice carry bag.
