Not genuine leather.

I am a long-time Amazon customer and recently began searching for leathermouse pads as gifts for my employees and our clients. Found this item andjust want to share a note of caution with you:Bonded Leather , or "Reconstituted Leather" is not really a true leatherbut a man-made material composed of 60% to 90% leather fibers (often scrapfrom leather tanneries). Bonded leather is not as durable as genuineleathers, and is recommended for use only if the product will be usedinfrequently. (data from WIKIPEDIA online)There are many true genuine leather mouse pads from other vendors and atbetter prices! Amazon may also have some, keep searching, but rememberonly the words "GENUINE LEATHER" or equal terminology should appear inthe description.
