I'm just on the "this looks cool" VS "this looks silly" side of the fence with this one, but I've stayed there consistently even though I doubted the purchase at first. The pattern looks like, and the craftsmanship is good overall for the price point. With heavy use the leather and pattern is holding up well with normal wear and tear marks not taking away from the overall look. Overall a good amount of room and the swing out license holder works well for flashing your ID when carded.
