About a year ago I spotted a maroon leather pen pouch made by Sailor. It looked better than a lot of five pen pouches I'd seen so I decided to get one. The first one disappeared in the post and thankfully a refund was issued. The second one arrived from Japan without a hitch. It's a really good looking pouch and feels like it's decent quality, but it isn't. I've only had it a few months and it's already showing signs of fairly serious wear without being used that much and certainly not treated badly. The leather is an extremely fine veneer that is showing signs of drying out (I live in a fairly humid part of the world) and cracking and noticed a couple of days ago that a small patch is beginning to tear away and there is a small hole on one side. These aren't exactly cheap, so it's very disappointing to have it wear so quickly. I might have been unlucky and bought a dud. Anyone else have any experience with them?
