Really nice leather - the top flap and buckle on the chain in particular are very thick and supple. The puch leather is nice and soft, not sure if the drawstrings are real leather as the feel plasticky, but the tassels are real and quite nice. My only complain is that the chain is really long! It holds well enough with the buckle without putting the pin in a hole, and I suppose I can cross-chain it or add a hole with my soldering iron, but still, I've never seen a sporran chain so long. If you're really big around the middle (I'm more medium-big around the middle) this could be a great option.
