Review title is BAD STROP [SEP] Maybe I'm wrong but the one I own looks like suede leather on one side and Pressed-cardboard-glue--maybe some leather on other side. It is as stiff as a board. The glued suede leather peeled off of its backing in just a few months. SO&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;&#62;I just bought a Chicago 827 from Amazon yesterday.
