I was really looking forward to receiving this for my new study Bible, but was so very disappointed when it arrived. The "genuine leather" is a cheap plastic shiny faux-alligator. It looks brown, not burgundy, but that is not the problem. It's the cheap materials it is made of. The stitching is fine, the main zipper works, the zipper compartment and front pouch are a good size and design for pens, markers, keys, and papers. The "leather look" trim is downright embarassing...the kind used on cheap Chinese-made toys sold at dollar stores.
This one is by "Embassy" and it's too much trouble to mail back, but I won't give them as gifts. The reason I was so surprised at how cheesey they are is because I carefully read the reviews by buyers who had purchased this Bible cover! If you want a cheap plastic Bible cover, this will do, but if you want a "Genuine Leather" quality cover to last many years, spend more and don't get one by Embassy.

The product looks nice (color, shape, and design) but the quality of the leather, advertised as Genuine, does not feel good when touched and appears to be a cheap, low quality leather.

This is an excellent Bible cover for the price. It is well constructed and my wife is very happy with it.

I love this bible cover. Its soo flashy and it has a pocket for my marking kits!! I was soo lucky to have found this, I have a giant print bible and it fits perfect!!

I really enjoy using my Bible cover. It's good quality and easy to zip and unzip with a pocket for pens and small items. Very pleased with purchase!

This Bible cover is very convenient and wonderful to have. Now I don't have to search for pens any more. This Bible cover has a pocket just for pens and even highlighters. I can even put gum and/or mints in my new Bible cover. I believe the best part of it all was the price, less than $10.

The Quality was better than I expected however the item was quite musty smelling...(repulsive to me)I've had two car air fresheners and plenty of air and sunlight working on removing the smell. I'm almost there. I would have sent it back but for the price it was better for me to remove the smell vs. returning it

I like my new Bible cover, although, it is described as a burgandy leather, it looks more brown.

It seems to be very study while supple enough to conform to the Bible.

I'm surprised by the low reviews. I've bought 3 and I love mine. It is very flexible and lightweight, which is what I like most about it. I have used mine on a daily basis for a year now and it has held up perfectly.

This was definitely a good price for this item, but the color of the trim in the photo on Amazon was the same color as the book cover itself. The color of the trim on the item I received was black, in sharp contrast to the burgundy/brown color of the book cover. This emphasizes that the material the trim is made of is actually a different material than the rest of the book cover, in a bad way, looks like flat plastic/vinyl, as opposed to the leather/croc look of the rest of it. I would not have purchased this had I known this, but it's not worth returning.

In terms of quality of it otherwise, it's large enough to hold a large book/bible, and also supple enough to bend easily. The pockets are roomy enough to hold a small journal, pens, etc. It seems sturdy enough as well to handle a larger book.
