DISCOVER THE DIFFERENCE Fake Leather vs Real Leather

Shop Authentic Leather. Hello! As you know, Mission Mercantile specializes in high-quality leather goods. After years of experience, we know how to spot fake leather from a mile away. This can come in handy when you’re on the hunt for new or vintage leather styles, so we wanted to share some tips, so you always know what’s real and what’s fake.

How It’s Named Synthetic leather is often marketed with terms that make it sound real. If you see words like Leatherette, Vegan Leather, PU Leather, Cork Leather, or Ocean Leather (just to name a few)– it’s not real. Smell The Difference Real leather has an authentic, incredible smell. On the other hand, fake leather can smell like chemicals or plastic.

It Looks Too Perfect Genuine leather has character to it, which means it’s not perfect. There’s wrinkles, stretch marks, veins, and other imperfections that give it a real charm. Fake leather typically looks very smooth and free from imperfections, making it easy to spot. Skin-Like Texture When you press into an authentic leather product, it will wrinkle or crease as skin does. The exception here is some real leather goods are heavily coated and might not react the same. However, fake leather depresses under your finger but retains its shape, firmness, and texture.

There are many more ways to tell the difference between real and fake leather. This includes the texture of the back, reaction to fire or water, the color, and cost. Want to learn more? Read our full article about this topic.
