Will the leather use on Sota product split or over time?
To be honest, rarely anything can last forever. The reason Sota specifies the use of highest quality top grain leather is for the very reason that it lasts much longer than hide or synthetic leather. With proper care, it would last longer than you would expect. Sota designer went extra miles to design the product using saddle stitch, a technique used for boots, heavy-duty shoes tells how durable the product is.
