Marks on genuine leather band (alien.top)

Hi, I bought a genuine Apple leather magnetic band not long ago, but through wearing it it’s developed these marks.

Is it possible to clean these bands or does it look more like the leather has worn away?

Has anybody else had this issue? It’s an expensive band so I’m quite disappointed.

Thanks in advance.

I have the blue one that has the same "leather" color inside and I have the same marks.

Really crapp quality to be an Apple product.

My old analog clocks with real leather have never been like that. "quality" is more like cheap Aliexpress/Wish products, but then you pay less, and quality as expected.

Thanks. Such a shame because they are nice bands and a good mix of smart and practical.

For Apple being a fancy brand and all, I gotta say the leather doesn’t seem very high quality

Dear lord I thought my leather iPhone case was rough 👀… my leather band though has held up well. I have the midnight blue since release.
