Before anyone bothers explaining why they use leather ("It's supposed to simulate the books of yore...") or tries to asking something like "You don't have to eat the cover, what's the problem?" let me just cut you off there and tell you that I understand why they're made of leather and I'm not going to argue the semantics of vegan vs. non-vegan.

I just want something non-leather to protect my Kindle. Thus far I'm leaning towards the JAVOedge tweed cover because they specifically say it is non-leather but ultimately I'd like to find something closer to the OCTO vintage or the Oderon covers.

Most of the non-leather cases, however are more like the Padagonia and that's not what I'm looking for. Anyone have any suggestions for cases that might not be on Amazon? Something off-the-beaten-path?
I second M-EDGE. I really like their "leisure" designs which are synthetic. As a Muslim, I try to avoid leather because of the chance that it could come from pigs, so I understand your difficulty. BTW, is your avatar from Vonnegut's Breakfast of Champions, by any chance?
