If it's Nardi then it's leather.

Mine's a Momo last of the '97s NA's. Going to soak it with leather dressing which cant do any harm. Did some research on this site and couldnt believe how many variations there were!

the late NA momo wheels were wrapped in leather. not sure about the centre pad though - i've always wondered about that bit.
