Best answer: No, the Surface Pro 6 Type Cover with a black finish is not made of Alcantara fabric. If you'd like Alcantara, you'll have to go with the Signature Type Cover, available in platinum, cobalt blue, and burgundy colors. If you don't want the fabric or want the black, then go with the Pro Type Cover.Microsoft: Surface Pro Type Cover ($130)Microsoft: Surface Pro Signature Type Cover ($160)
