I had previously owned Evans Duke Scuff. That one has a paper thin bottom that falls apart immediately. The Aristocrat Scuff allegedly has a leather sole covering on the bottom. Maybe this means they sprayed some hamburger grease on it so it could be called a cow part. After two months of indoor only use on carpeted floors, I can already see it fraying away. Furthermore on some light colored carpet mats, it is imparting ugly black stains. Folks, this item, and also the Duke Scuff are incredibly low quality products. This is really pathetic.
