Question
What is the difference between leather and leatherette?
How can I tell them apart and why is leather worth more?

Answer
Texture, feel, and smell are the big three that give it
away for most of us!

Textured genuine leather shows a grain or pattern.
Smooth leather is soft, especially if it is Nappa Top
Grain Cowhide leather. That is why some of leather
products are so much more expensive that the others -
but aren't you worth it?!

Genuine Leather is the next level of quality in leather
and the majority of our products are Genuine Leather.
Bonded Leather is the least expensive leather. Check the
label in your belts .. many of your belts are made from
bonded leather.

In the lesser quality leatherette exteriors, the 'faux leather'
is stiff and has a plasticy-fake feel to the touch.

If you want to save money and you drive a non-luxury car,
leatherette works well. If you only pick the best and
drive a high end vehicle, you will seek the patina of use
associated with leather of the years you own your case.

For seekers of classic luxury leather is still "king".
The faux leather, also called leatherette, is easier to
clean or maintain, but we are talking about cases in which
you plan to store expensive watches!

The smell of leather may fade with time unless you find
you need to dust/wipe it with periodically with a light
coat of a cleaner made just for leather.

Lets face it, leatherette is a close second and if you have
an investment in your watches, you'll appreciate leather.
