The Definitive Guide For Keeping All Your Leather Pieces Clean

The first thing to consider is what kind of leather you're buying and how often you will wear the garment. Some types of leather are more durable and easier to maintain, while others look decadent but, in return, are a nightmare to care for.

These are the most common types of leather:

• Cowhide: The most durable type of leather.
• Water buffalo: Not as durable as cowhide.
• Sheepskin: More durable than lambskin and usually more expensive.
• Lambskin: Soft and supple.
• Nubuck: Dyed leather with a velvet or nap finish.
