How to Distinguish Genuine Leather, Microfiber, or PU Leather on your bag
Time:September 04,2023

When it comes to purchasing a new bag or suitcase, one of the most important factors to consider is the material it is made of. With so many options available, it can be challenging to differentiate between genuine leather, microfiber, and PU synthetic leather. In this post, we will guide you through the process of distinguishing these materials, helping you make an informed decision.


Genuine Leather: Genuine leather is made from animal hides and is highly valued for its durability and luxurious appearance. To identify genuine leather, look for natural imperfections such as wrinkles, scars, and grain patterns. Genuine leather has a distinct smell that is often described as earthy or musky. Additionally, it feels soft and supple to the touch. When pressed, genuine leather will stretch and flex, returning to its original shape once released.


Microfiber: Microfiber is a synthetic material made from ultra-fine fibers that are thinner than a human hair. It is known for its exceptional strength, water resistance, and ease of cleaning. To determine if a bag is made of microfiber, examine its texture. Microfiber has a smooth and velvety feel, similar to suede. It is often used as a vegan alternative to leather due to its resemblance and eco-friendly nature.

PU Synthetic Leather: PU synthetic leather, also known as faux leather, is an artificial material made by coating a fabric base with a layer of polyurethane. It is a popular choice for those seeking an affordable and cruelty-free alternative to genuine leather. To identify PU synthetic leather, check for a consistent texture and a plastic-like smell. Unlike genuine leather, PU synthetic leather does not have natural imperfections or grain patterns. It also tends to feel stiffer and less flexible.

Remember, while genuine leather is considered the highest quality material, both microfiber and PU synthetic leather have their advantages. Microfiber offers durability and easy maintenance, while PU synthetic leather provides affordability and a wide range of design options.
