Considering these leather pouches were used the leather is absolutely in great condition. These pouches were exactly what I was looking for. I am using these for cosplay futuristic road wartior apocolyptic costume. The color to the leather gives it that weathered look. The delivery time after I ordered the pouches was really quick they arrived with 3-4 days. I am extremely pleased with this product and will be ordering a few other military surplus items in the near future.
