What happens to leather over time? Does it change or wear out?
Aniline leathers, with their light protection, may produce an aged “patina” finish over time adding to their natural character. Protected pigment leathers will become more subtle and soft over time. Leather outlasts synthetic materials 4 to 1 and will not easily show wear. Leather will not tear and is difficult to puncture. All leather and synthetic materials have a tendency to fade if subjected to direct sunlight for long periods of time.
