Good things come to …
Those who recognize the quality of Leather, not those who wait.
Join the quality inspection gang to shop for the most exclusive leather products.
Now, you may ask why you should learn this skill? You should master this skill because through this, you are signing up for value for money, feeling excited?
You might have got lucky a few times in getting premium quality shoes and boots. But the chances are that you might come across subpar leather accessories. Here's how you can assess the types of Leather.
The first thing you should check out in a leather jacket is the edges. If they are blue, there's a clue. The manufacturer has probably taken a shortcut during the process, and that's bad news for you.
Why? Because your jacket will age faster. People around you wouldn't have to cut it into pieces to find this out. The blue edges will say it all.
Here is science. Each hide has a part called wet blue. If the tannery hasn't completely processed the hide, the blue part will continue to show. How embarrassing.
Falling in the trap? Buying cheap Leather long coat? Please stop and take a moment to inspect what the Leather feels like.
If it feels brittle or stiff, put it back. Simple. The last thing you want in your wardrobe is poorly processed Leather. When judging between the types of Leather, evaluating their feel helps.
There's, honestly, no rocket science to it. Caress the surface, and it will tell you its darkest secrets. A perfectly grained pattern is too good to be true. You can bet it was stamped to look that way.
Bad stitching and cheap tailoring accessories are a big turn off. What good is a vintage jacket that doesn't look luxurious overall? All it takes is one affordable element to rob off the entire look.
If the stitching is not straight, the lining is coming off, and hardware looks bad, you can only imagine how bad the leather quality is. A product that was made using first quality leather wouldn't be embellished that way. Makes sense?
Hence, if a store can compromise the integrity of all other raw materials, be skeptical about its leather quality as well. Not all stores are Leather Skin Shop, after all.
The two majorly used hides that people love and have the tendency to provide durable products are the cowhide, and the sheep hide. They may sound confusing but wait, below are some products that can help you decide. Some of the leather materials can easily be dyed in other colors like yellow or orange giving you an unique orange leather jacket.
The significant difference between the two hides is their grain and the flexibility they offer.
Have you ever been scammed when out to purchase Leather?
Before you start wallowing into the depths of misery on that purchase, let's cheer you up.
