It appears to be of good quality leather, although time will tell. The zipper seems to have a slight sticking issue; it needs to be stretched and straightened to open, otherwise it gets stuck and I'm afraid it might break over time. It is a bit bulky due to the internal coin pocket; I would prefer an external zipper instead of the closure it has, but that is a matter of personal preference. It has enough space for documents, ID cards, and banknotes, but as one loads it, the volume increases. I will come back later for a second evaluation after use
