How to judge genuine leather or artificial leather ?
First let us know the classification of leather .
Genuine leather:natural leather,animal skins
Artificial leather:Imitation leather,PVC and PU
Synthetic leather:The front and back side is very similar to leather.Compared with common artificial leather,synthetic leather is closer to natural leather .
Super-fiber belongs to a new developed advanced leather of synthetic leather .
Three ways of identifying genuine leather :Watch,touch,smell
A Watch:Look at the lines, look at the pores, look at the base and cut, see the water absorption.
1,Look at the lines ,now the lines of genuine leather and artificial leather are almost the same .So this way did not work .
2,Look at the pores,the pores are so small .Shall I bring a magnifying glass when I buy bags ?
3,See the water absorption,the surface could not absorb water and we could not see the inside situation .
What's more ,water would harm genuine leather .This way would not work ,either .
4,Look at the base and cut.Cut the bag and see the layers .
Genuine leather has no layers .Artificial leather has layers .First layer is PU,PVC,Half PU .Second layer is cloth base .
This would harm the bag .Have to pass this method .
B Touch:Genuine leather is smooth,flexible .Has irregular wrinkles and recovery easily .
If it is super-fiber ,the feel and touch is near genuine leather .So this way of doing is not OK .
C Smell ,burn
1,Smell directly .Genuine Leather has animal fat taste (skin smell); imitation leather has plastic taste.
If add the smell of genuine leather to imitation leather ,could you smell the difference ?
2.Burn,Genuine leather is hard to burn and has the smell of hair burning .Artificial leather has the smell of plastics .
In my eye,in front of honesty,it does not need any method .Honesty is one of the way to identify genuine leather or artificial leather .
Second is price .
