As a buyer, have you ever run into this kind of situation:
You want to purchase a batch of leather shoes, and the factory asks:
"Leather shoes? Men's or women's? Pigskin, sheepskin, cowhide, or synthetic leather?"
When faced with these questions, do you feel unsure about what to choose?
Chances are, you haven’t worked with an experienced factory like us before.
Here's a quick introduction:
Sheepskin:
Sheepskin is softer than cowhide, with a finer texture and better breathability.
However, it's not as durable as cowhide and can't withstand as much tension.
It's more commonly used for women's shoes.
Pigskin:
Pigskin has excellent breathability, good moisture resistance, and is easy to care for.
It won't deform or crack when exposed to moisture and offers good slip resistance.
It's typically used for shoe linings and insoles.
Cowhide:
Cowhide is the most versatile, offering good breathability, durability, elasticity, and wear resistance.
It's sturdy and can handle higher tension, making it a reliable choice.
Synthetic Leather:
This usually includes traditional PU, microfiber leather, and PVC leather.
It can mimic the look and feel of genuine leather, has fabric-like breathability, and is resistant to high temperatures and wear.
It's also more affordable.
