genuine leather identification

The Genuine Leather Mark is a certification trademark registered by the China Leather Industry Association with the State Administration for Industry and Commerce of the People's Republic of China. It certifies medium to high-end quality leather products. Leather shoes, leather garments, and leather goods bearing this mark must meet the following three conditions:

A. Made from natural leather

B. Finely crafted, medium to high-end products

C. Excellent after-sales service provided to consumers. When making a purchase, many people worry about distinguishing genuine leather from fake and determining its quality. In fact, leather can generally be identified using these three methods:

1. Visual inspection: Genuine leather always has numerous dense pores on its surface. These become more visible when pushing up from the inside of the shoe with your finger.

2. Smell test: Those with experience can distinguish genuine leather by its scent. Genuine leather has a distinct leather smell that differs from paint.

3. Touch test: When pinching any part of the toe or body of the shoe, fine wrinkles will appear and disappear when released, restoring its original lustre.
