Is this made of real cow leather or is it PU?

I believe its PU, it's definitely not real cow leather. Not bad quality but a bit bulky.

PU leather has a paper-thin layer of suede leather covered with a much thicker layer of polyurethane. So it is mostly plastic with a bit of real leather under it providing a bit of extra strength. So the part you touch is indeed plastic.

From all sources I have found, they are real leather. I am very happy with mine.

I think PU Leather is a marketing term for a manufactured product that looks like and is textured to feel like leather (and according to Wikipedia may contain some actual leather). Some of the automotive folks have been using "PU Leather" for their auto seats of late. It smells more like polyurethane than leather to me.

I'm really not sure. It seems like real leather and looks very, very nice. I was very impressed.

I'm not an expert, but it appears to me to be full grain leather. I'm very happy with mine.

It is NOT real leather. However, it is nicely finished, and looks very much like leather.

I honestly don't know if it's "real" leather BUT it's great material either way. I would guess it would cost more if it were "real" leather. I bought one for each grandson for Christmas they love them and they are very easy to clean. Well worth the money and better material than the ones in stores. Believe me I looked everywhere before I decided to try these because the ones in stores looked so cheap. Great value for the price!

I think it is real leather. It isn't the soft kidskin leather you'd find in a pair of ladies gloves- it's more like the leather seats you'd find in a car. It is stitched, which would cause "pleather" to tear. I've had mine for about 5 months and it remains in perfect condition. If it isn't leather, it is an amazingly good imitation of it.

I'm not sure if its real leather or not. I have used it quite a bit and it has held up so far.

hmmm... I cant say for sure that it real leather or not, but it is of high quality material and certainly looks/feels like it. My dog has been wearing this for 6 months and it has not peeled. But, he is also a pug and very lazy so not much activity going on with him :-) Hope that helps!

The box states "genuine leather". It doesn't smell like "vegan leather" (which is really just polyurethane over a polyester base) so it probably is real leather, for the most part.

No it is not real leather. It is actually made of plastic, as I'd call it. This is what anyone would expect for the price.

It doesn't say anywhere on it. I suspect it is man made leather but its fairly well made and so far I am happy with it. I have had it about 4 weeks and it seems to be holding up very well. It does have a made in china label on it but nothing identifying the material. Hope that helps.

I don't think it's real leather, but looks like a brushed suede-leather-imitation. It looked pretty authentic.

Bicast leather (also known as bi-cast leather, bycast leather or PU leather, sometimes described as split leather) is a material made with a split leather backing covered with a layer of polyurethane (hence the term PU leather) that is applied to the surface and then embossed. - It's a nice little case and an attractive way to carry your camera. It reminds me of my grandfather's fancy (what we would refer to as vintage now) cases for all of his high-end cameras.
