Why YSK: The term “Genuine Leather” is a marketing term to sell the lowest quality leather possible.

When purchasing a leather product, look for full grain leather or top grain leather instead. These will provide a much higher quality cut of leather that will look and feel much better and last for much longer.

    I like how leather feels like and the unique look when it’s aged or beaten up. Works great with wallets, belts, shoes… but not so much your couch, especially when it’s hot and humid.
