I have a black suede Noreve cover, and absolutely love it. If you're looking for perfection in the leather, though, the suede is not the right choice. I guess you could call it "distressed". Having a pre-distressed cover saved me from worry about marking it more, though, so I was very happy with it
I really like the rail system that the Noreve cover uses - almost as unobtrusive as the hinges, but no stress points.
