Features of suede
Even in ancient times, many peoples used the skin for sewing clothes, but before that they impregnated it with various fats. Today, natural suede is made from animal skin, which is pretreated with tanning agents.
For impregnation, bone, fish, seal oil, vegetable oil, etc. are used. Thanks to this impregnation, the skin acquires plasticity, softness and strength.
Suede is characterized by velvety, which is present on each side, unlike velor.
The suede production process is quite complex. The skin is exposed to impact crumbs, then it warms up, and the process is repeated again until the skin acquires a yellow-brown hue.
Suede looks sophisticated and expensive. A suede coat will definitely emphasize the sophisticated style and good taste of its owner. It can be combined with different wardrobe elements for stylish and luxurious looks in different styles.

Types of suede
Suede can be natural or artificial... Modern production technologies make it possible to create an artificial material that, at first glance, cannot be distinguished from natural.
Faux suede made by gluing pile or looped threads to fabric to create a velvety effect. Then it is impregnated with special solutions, and it acquires new properties - it does not wear off and does not fade.
Natural suede has a pile that, when touched, changes the slope, texture and color, but the artificial material retains its original appearance. Natural suede has a leathery smell, absorbs water immediately and may have some imperfections such as scratches, pores or cracks.
A coat made of natural suede is more expensive, since the manufacturing process takes more time and requires more money.
