The vest/gun belt feel and look like real leather. I believe in the listing PT stated it would be authentic leather.
Is it just me or does the tailoring on the present toys looks bad?
Angelus "matte" finisher doesn't actually dry matte though (none of the Angelus finishers do). It's actually pretty glossy any takes away any natural shine that the pleather currently has resulting in a pretty fake look. You need to mix it with Angelus Duller at the right amount to get a more natural leather shine. Definitely shouldn't apply and just "see how it goes" as you'd more than likely ruin the look of the material.looking at the photo of the luggage, no way the materials real leather. so i suggest folks try out angelus finisher and see how it goes lol.

Yes at first I was the same. After a few attempts I was able to place it on. I positioned the front edge of the hat on his forehead first and held it there. Than I stretched the rest over his head and let go of it while still holding the front. If it jumped back up, I stretch it less until I found kind of the sweet spot.I got present toys Leon today, really good figure... but the hat doesn't fit. At all. I try my best to get it to fit on his head but it just comes loose and sits on top of his head. Anyone else have this problem?
I originally got one of those ebay recast sculpts just to display the Beani and glasses but after your pics I'm ordering the Topo set for a new figureHere are some photos I took of the Present Toys SP45 Léon.
I replaced the coat with topo studio's version, because of the accurate pattern on it.
The body is better than I expected, close to HT quality if not the same.

Nice work on the gun case BACON! I still need to assemble my Leon one of these days and take some pics. And I agree the Topo clothing set is excellent quality. Glad I picked one up from Kit.Topo set is indeed significantly better in all regards to the DJ Custom clothing.
I also retrofitted the weapons box with 1/8" thick MDF to make it sturdier
