Short and sweet: Outside is the top processing, after some time decreases the smell and it remains in a leather always normal smell. Inside mangehalft processing - the 2 eyelets for attaching rich MMN not - would be better here 4, but well, that you knew before buying. However, one of the two loops is broken after only 4-5 months - I have used the shell is not often - maybe max. 5x short without transporting the laptop. So a poor workmanship inside, where it's just important to protect the laptop - with such a price, I find bitter.
Unfortunately, I have never found a way to contact the seller to ask for a replacement item.
