Is the case's interior lining a leather or faux-leather suede? The exterior is non-leather, but the interior seems to be leather.

The whole base of the inside is suede which is clear on the left and the non leather on the right clearly surrounding the kindle.

It feels a bit like suede, it is soft but It is more like a brushed canvas. FAUX leather-suede is a good description.

The inside is not a real leather, but is quite soft, protecting the Kindle well.

The interior of mine does not feel or look like leather. It feels like a light suede. BTW, mine is Black not Navy. Its the best Kindle cover I've ever had.

The case I purchased was the pink leopard and it feels as if it's a plastic like vinyl. So if you're ok with it not being leather than it's a great case for you.

I do not think it is real leather, but it may be. It looks like leather, but does not smell like leather. BTW, the whole case is heavy and defeats the purpose of the iPad being so transportable. I am looking for a new case.

It's definitely not real leather. I would say its more of a PU leather/faux leather. I've had it now for a couple of months and I really like it.

It certainly seems to be leather to me. I am not an expert but it compares to other leather things I own - the inside & edges look natural (raw - dyed but not polished) and the outside has some subtle unevenness - all of which look like real hide to me.

I would agree with the text "Vegan synthetic leather". I'm very happy with my case, it looks and feels very nice. I really had to look it over to decide it is synthetic.

Yes, the interior lining is burgundy. The whole case is light, my daughter loves it!

It is synthetic and is not real looking at all; however it is GREAT if you're not worried about it not looking like real leather. It is a protective case that is functional and gets the job done.

Styling, that's about it. The black looks like leather; the carbon fiber look like carbon fiber. The case originally came in only carbon; the other colors/styles were added later. Both protect the device well.

It is not leather. It is plastic. And it did not fit the phone. I sent it back.

It is leather imitation. That being said it feels nice and seems to be durable and protect well. I've had it for close to 7 months and still looks and holds great (I use the tablet every day).

The inside is cushy velvet. Real velvet? I don't know, not a velvet connoisseur but it's not cheap or plastic. Outside is suede.

It has leather lining the inside. I have been using mine for a couple of years, and there has been no scratches or other blemishes caused by the case.

Although it looks like leather it is not. It is quite nice looking. For the price it is a very good deal.

I have owned this particular case for several months and find it to be a very nice case. In my opinion however, it does not appear to be a leather coating. It has a matte finish that I can only assume to be either a rubber or plastic material that is softer to the touch. With that being said, it is a very sturdy case that was easy to work with and has nice features.

I was about to respond by saying the outside cover is real leather. Then going back and giving it a very close examination, it could be synthethic, and even if it is I think it's a great imitation. It appears to be a thin layer on top of a stiff form that is stronger than cardboard but doesn't feel like metal. The inside appears to be synthetic, but matches well with the outside leather in both looks and feel. The inside also has an engraved design to also add to the leather look. But again, I'm sure at least the inside is synthetic. If it actually fit my Nexus tablet, I would gladly be using it right now. I was about to respond by saying the outside cover is real leather.
