How to distinguish between genuine leather and man-made leather?

As we know, following fashion is a popular trendy. Although at this special period, financial crisis still hasn’t stop people’s steps following fashion.

In fashion line, replicas are more and more popular, especially at the time of financial crisis. When people can get the same bags in same design and same material on the based of some times money less, they will prefer to buy high end replicas.

Here I’d like to introduce high quality bags’ material. To make everyone have a further knowledge of what they buy.

Genuine leather is common words in leather line, it’s also the name what is different from man-made leather. Genuine leather has many kinds, their prices are also different.

Common leather has pigskin leather, cow leather, sheepskin leather, horse leather and so on. Cow leather has buffalo hide and cowhides, sheepskin leather has goatskin and sheepskin. Accoring to levels, it has frist layer, second layer, third layer.

Fur leather according to kinds has fox fur, goat fur, rabbit hair fur, mink fur and so on. Fox has blue fox, silver fox and red fox; goat has adult goat and impubic goat; mink has maternal mink and male mink.

Here are some authentication methods of genuine leather:

Firstly, hand-feeling. When touch leather’s surface, if it’s slip, soft, plenis and flexible, then it’s genuine leather.

Secondly, observing. To check leather’s kinds and leather’s surface’s good and bad. If surface has obvious pore and tracery, then it's genuine leather. But man-made leather has no clear design. Besides, man-made leather has fabrics as bottom plate, which is for incresing intensity of tension, but genuine leather has no fabrics. This is the most simple methord to distinguish.

Thirdly, smelling. Good quality leather doesn’t smelly, but just leather smell. If it has something penetrating, it must because of unproperly handled or using excess chemical raw material.

Finally, burning. After burning, genuine’s smell is similat with burning fur, and it will not tie, and it can be pinched to dust by finger. But man-made leather will be smelly after burning, and tie.

Well, that’s the common methord to distinguish real leather from man-made leather, hope it’s useful for those fashion ladies and gentlemen when buy replica handbags or leather things.
