Regular 3/5 series leather is dakota leather.
Dakota leather is highly processed leather. While durable, it feels quite cheap.
M3 to M6 has merino leather.
It is much softer and has more upscale feeling to it.
However, if not cared properly, you can easily ruin the leather (eg. dry & cracked leather).
*Treat your leather like human skin. Giving good coffee aroma will give it some more longevity (not scientifically proven but approved by Lups).
