What is suede leather?

 

It is sometimes difficult to find one's way through the many names of the suede bag. Suede leather, split suede, , suede calf, nubuck bag. To begin with, it is necessary to distinguish between full grained leather and split leather . The full grained leather is the upper or outer part of the hide. It is the noblest. It can be presented in different ways. Nubuck is made from full grain leather. The peach skin aspect is obtained by sanding the grain, and gives the leather a very soft appearance. The split leather is obtained by splitting the leather into its thickness. It is the inner part of the hide. Its velvety appearance gives it a very sensual feel. This part of the leather is fascinating because it allows the creation of many different colours. The qualities of leather vary enormously, depending on the species of animal, the origin of the skins, their thickness, and their tanning. Finally, we should not confuse the many synthetic materials that imitate leather or nubuck. They do not qualify for the name leather, which refers only to natural materials of animal origin.

How to care for your suede bag?

 

Suede bags require a little more care than other leather bags. Its fluffy appearance attracts dust more easily. This leather is more absorbent than the smooth part of the leather (grain) and will also fix stains more quickly. We recommend waterproofing your bag the first time you use it. Brush it regularly, at least once a month, with a small soft brush and waterproof it again. In case of stains, rub it immediately and gently with a soft cloth and soapy water.
