na, i understand faux leather can be just as good, im not only buying the headphones because of that, i mean, its an unpleasant surprise and if id known , id probably be a little less bias when i was choosing.

and i do understand that faux leather can at some point be better then real one, cost for example but i dunno, its a bit phony like a fake leather jacket or something
