PU synthetic leather has a very similar appearance to genuine leather, as it is an artificial skin with no pores on the surface and more regular and neat patterns. The surface of low-end microfiber leather may have a plastic feel. The pores of the genuine leather surface are relatively clear, and the patterns are relatively natural. Pressing the leather surface with your fingers can cause small wrinkles.

PU synthetic leather has a specific gravity between 0.3 and 0.5, making it lighter in weight, waterproof, and less prone to swelling or deformation after absorbing water. The specific gravity of genuine leather is generally 0.6. The genuine leather is much thicker.

PU synthetic leather has a lighter taste, but some low-end microfiber leather may have a strong plastic odor. Genuine leather, as it is made of animal skin, can have a strange odor and even a slight foul odor.

PU synthetic leather has excellent cold resistance, breathability, and aging resistance, while genuine leather will be more comfortable and breathable. PU synthetic leather and genuine leather can achieve a certain balance in overall performance.

PU synthetic leather is an artificial synthetic material with the texture of genuine leather, which is very close to leather fabric and has more uniform and stable quality and performance. Genuine leather is limited by the size of animal skin, resulting in uneven physical properties. There are various types, varieties, structures, and qualities.

Genuine leather is more expensive than PU synthetic leather, and the price of genuine leather may fluctuate due to changes in supply and demand. However, some top-notch PU synthetic leather is highly technological and more expensive than genuine leather, used for high-end applications.
