The difference between Synthetic leather and leather in performance is mainly reflected in the following aspects:
Durability: The wear and tear resistance of microfiber leather is usually better than that of real leather, and it is more suitable for making items that need to be used frequently, such as shoes, sofas, etc. The durability of leather depends on its quality and maintenance. In general, high-quality leather can be used for a long time after proper maintenance, but if it is improperly maintained or subjected to excessive wear, problems such as cracking and fading may occur.
Permeability: The dermis has good permeability, allowing air to circulate freely, making the skin feel comfortable. Microfiber skin is relatively poor in air permeability and may cause a feeling of sweltering after prolonged use.
Softness: Leather usually has a soft, smooth texture, while the softness of microfiber leather may vary depending on the material and manufacturing process. Some high-quality microfiber leather can simulate a softness similar to that of real leather, but in general, real leather may be superior in terms of softness.
Water resistance: microfiber skin waterproof performance is better, easy to clean and maintain. Leather is more sensitive to water and needs to be waterproof, otherwise it is vulnerable to water damage.
Appearance: The appearance of the leather has a natural texture and gloss, giving a noble, natural feeling. Microfiber leather can be printed or embossed to simulate a variety of textures and patterns, but the appearance may not be as natural as leather.
Environmental protection: The production process of microfiber leather is relatively environmentally friendly, reducing the dependence on animals. Dermis comes from animals, and its production can have an impact on the environment.
To sum up, microfiber leather and leather have advantages and disadvantages in performance. In the selection, it is necessary to consider the specific needs and use scenarios. If you focus on durability and water resistance, microfiber leather may be a better choice; If you want softness and breathability, leather may be more suitable. In addition, we also need to consider price, environmental protection and other factors.
