So this time, we will focus on the "material" which makes a big difference when choosing a Dulles bag and introduce the appeal of Dulles bags.

The difference between synthetic leather and genuine leather

The leather materials used for business bags include synthetic leather and natural leather.
Learn about the characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of natural leather and synthetic leather, and choose the business bag that's right for you. Let's start by looking at the differences between synthetic leather and genuine leather.

Genuine Leather

Genuine leather is also called natural leather and refers to the processed real skin of animals such as cows, horses, sheep, and deer.

merit

It is extremely durable and does not deteriorate easily over time.
In addition, genuine leather undergoes the unique aging process, allowing you to enjoy the unique texture that develops the more you use it.

Demerit

The disadvantages are that it is heavier than synthetic leather and less resistant to water.
The rarer the material and the better the quality, the higher the price.

Leather

Synthetic leather is an artificial material made by applying synthetic resin to natural fabric to give the surface a similar appearance to genuine leather.
A leather-like appearance is achieved by applying polyurethane resin and embossing the material.

merit

It is more affordable than genuine leather, so you can get it at a relatively affordable price.
It also has water-repellent properties, making it resistant to rain and dirt, and it can be cleaned by wiping it with a damp cloth, making it easy to maintain.

Demerit

It is said to be more susceptible to deterioration over time and less durable than genuine leather, and if cheap synthetic leather is used, it may fall apart due to hydrolysis.
Additionally, some people feel that business bags made of synthetic leather look cheap.

What is the difference between PU leather and PVC leather?

There are different types of synthetic leather used for business bags, the most common being PU leather and PVC leather.

PU Leather

PU leather is a fabric with a polyurethane resin applied to the surface, giving it excellent elasticity.
It also feels good against the skin, so it is sometimes used for leather jackets.
Because it does not deteriorate easily over time, it is often used for interior items such as sofas, but it is vulnerable to moisture and the surface tends to become sticky.

PVC Leather

PVC leather is made by applying polyvinyl chloride to fabric, and is resistant to deterioration due to hydrolysis and dirt, making it easy to maintain by wiping with water and using neutral detergent.
Therefore, it is also suitable for business bags that are often carried outside.
PVC leather is also easy to process and is available in a wide range of colors.
It is resistant to moisture, making it less susceptible to the development of dust mites and mold, and is also suitable for Japan's humid climate.
