The cover for my new Kindle has disappointed me: the description was something of "eco-leather", but come to me as a doubt. The part looks like a cheap imitation leather and stinks too. However, the shell is practical. The device is securely protected in the holder. Although I have barely used the wide strap, it curls already slightly on one side. I tomorrow go on vacation and do not want to take the Kindle "defenseless", I will not return the envelope. Therefore, I will have to keep for good or ill. I would not recommend it though.
