text: Good Grief - this thing smells like it was stored in a vat of dead fish.  PHEW!!  I expected the smell of synthetic something, but was impressed by the stench when I unwrapped this.  But, for the price, I won't bother returning and stuck the thing in a zip-lock with some dryer sheets.  After airing it out for a day.  Better - still can detect that dead fish thing, but expect it will fade (please Lord) with time.  Otherwise, not a bad wallet - I like the funky color/shiny red and the tan interior.  Reasonably well made, clasp operates well and is sized large enough so that cards and bills go in and out easily.  It's a fun wallet and as long as the smell doesn't linger too long, I'm happy with it.  The description was really confusing but I took a chance that it would resemble the picture and it does.  Leather stone pattern?  No - more like glittery kinda pebbly faux leatherish.....fish skin?
