Why Should I Buy Real Leather When Fake/Faux Leather Looks Exactly The Same And Is Cheaper?

When it comes to buying products for long term use at work or leisure, you should always buy the best you can afford. Products made with cheaper fake and faux leather (synthetic material), along with bonded leather (leather shavings mixed with glue) are a false economy; the fabrics used are more fragile and less hard wearing. There are some very convincing products that look like the real thing but you’ll find that they don’t last as long and you’ll require a replacement pretty quickly. If your budget can stretch to a real leather product, it will reward you with better performance and greater lifespan. When properly cared for genuine leather can last for years.
