AS Chris KC says above, modern producers of leather seem to go to great lengths to make leather look like plastic. The modern matt leathers are entirely inappropriate for any vintage car, of classic car for that matter. It's now very difficult to find leather with a nice 'sheen' to it. Sheen is perhaps the best word to use to describe leathers of old. They get polished to gloss by years of use as can be seen in the various posts above. Nice leathercloth is available from Ratchford's, suitable for the door and interior trim panels..
