propper alcantara from italy, which is the place the real stuff comes from is near enuf 40 quid a meter.... not cheap, and defor not cheap enuf to have a try at retrimming, there are cheaper alternatives, but they tend to fade....

powelly - it must be a imatation ala. as Boyriven are the only importers of it - they charge £40-50 per meter for a basic sized order - but yes its great stuff - it is a fake suede but a fake thats SOO much better than the original in terms of wear and easy of use.

I have some blue "fake" stuff but you would be hard pressed to tell it was.

i only have a metre left but i can get more @ around £18pm all colours (min order 3.5 m)

I got a swatch of that auto acoustics stuff, was a bit dissapointing it was like a cross between alcantara and felt.
