Women's faux leather jackets

It is customary to call artificial leather a polymer material obtained by applying a polyvinyl chloride or polyurethane liquid mass on paper and then hardening it in an oven. It has the same external characteristics as natural leather. It is used in the manufacture of clothing, footwear, furniture, technical and haberdashery products.

Considering all these advantages of leatherette, many leading companies in the production of leather products, especially for animal protectors, produce products from artificial leather.

The main disadvantages artificial leather are:

1. The need for more accurate and thorough care of artificial leather products: they cannot be dried in the sun, on a radiator, near a fireplace or other heating appliances, as cracks and white spots may appear on their outer surface.
2. Artificial leather does not tolerate temperatures below 10 degrees, therefore it is not recommended to walk in jackets made of such material in frosty weather, otherwise it will crack.
3. The air tightness of leatherette products can cause discomfort to the wearer in the form of an unpleasant odor.
4. The service life of artificial leather products is much shorter than that of genuine leather products.
5. In addition, artificial material ignites much faster than natural leather. This quality, by the way, is used to check what kind of leather the product is made of.

It is made by covering a base made of natural cotton with a polyurethane film. This method of application makes products made from ecological leather softer and more elastic. In addition, the cotton base provides the product with a higher strength: they do not stretch or break.

The polyurethane coating makes the product more wear-resistant and frost-resistant. It is also important that eco-leather does not contain various plasticizing additives that release various hazardous substances. It is because of this that this material is called "ECO" -skin. In jackets made of eco-leather, you can walk in frost down to - 35 degrees Celsius.

To others the advantages of ecological leather include:

• excellent appearance, perfectly smooth material surface;
• its air permeability and hydroscope;
• high wear resistance and durability;
• high frost resistance compared to artificial leather;
• pleasant tactile sensations from eco-leather products: they are very soft, elastic and warm;
• high rates of hypoallergenicity due to the absence of the greenhouse effect;
• lack of unpleasant odor and toxic substances in the composition.

Thus, artificial leather is in many ways inferior to ecological, although it costs a little less. The latter, in turn, sometimes surpasses even natural leather in some qualities, although it is cheaper.
