Is the "contrasting color" on the bottom reinforced material like leather, or simply a different color?

Simply a different color. THAT was very disappointing. A couple of co-workers have old JanSport backpacks, from 10-20 years ago that have leather bottoms. They seem to stand upright much better than mine. That being said, it's a very high-quality backpack and I think it will last a long time.

It's like leather rough. Def different material but makes it so much more tough. I bought the black on black backpack so idk if it's diff with diff colors. My bf carries his MacBook, charger, iPad and more in it everyday. It'd probably be best to ask the seller.

It's leather. I'm not sure what those other terms mean. I have the dark brown and it's darker than I would have liked. I saw one that appeared to be the same at HomeGoods today. I'm very pleased with it.

pu leather is one of the better man made leathers. when i bought mine they came in black, brown and white they are brown not burgundy at all. still happy with mine. the colors are listed separately. there is a decorative ring that goes on before you mount the shock,make sure you put it on first. very easy to assemble. shipped very fast like three days.

All I can say is, it looks like leather and feels like leather. If it's vinyl I can't tell, but I am not a fabric consultant.

I think the color varies from bag to bag due to the nature of leather. However the color of the bag I purchased was a rich chocolate with reddish overtones. I'm sure as the bag breaks in the color will lighten in areas, but that is to be expected. Good leather breaks in like a favorite pair of jeans.

It feels almost like leather to me. Obviously not real leather but feels and looks like it. Doesnt look cheap though.

It is a bit of a hybrid, the top is more of a lycra fabric, while the sides and center are a vinyl/synthetic leather.

When you look at color options, the "black leather" is leather. The colors that don't say leather are fabric. If you click on the black leather option, you'll see that the item description notes change to say "Leather." Thus, I have to recommend that you don't skip reading the actual item description before asking questions about reviews when the answer is right there.

Its not real leather, and it doesnt get dirty. I guess that depends on the color.

I think they called it bonded leather,a blend. it feels and looks like genuine leather.

The leather is just a normal type, nothing special about it. However, be careful of the legs as they break off fairly easy.

I went with the vintage brown leather and there is red on the spine at the top and bottom of the spine - however, not sure that every one they produce is identical.

It is leather indeed and the color is not black instead it's dark navy blue. Blue enough not to be mistaken with black. I actually bought it hoping it is black color leather. The frame is good quality plastic of white color. Hope user an informed decision.

No it is not leather. It is like a soft vinyl top with a flexible plastic bottom.

It is a different material, but still black. it might be a deep charcoal grey.
