Looks like blue cheese on the edges. Kind of looking ugly! I care much more about the durability and I hope this new leather they are using lasts as long as the previous type. Must have gotten a new supplier or something.
So put a little black shoe polish on a cloth and rub it in.... Problem solved
I have had my Scott leather case 6 years and still fine. It pays for itself over time. If you want to look like a tool with a Office Depot case held together with duct tape after 6 months be my guest. Ballistic nylon is basically usless too.
