What is the difference between GENUINE LEATHER and FULL GRAIN LEATHER

GENUINE LEATHER is made from the parts of the hide after the top grain has been removed. Often sanded and buffed to remove imperfections and has a uniform appearance. Tough and durable but a little easier on the pocket than full grain leather.

 

FULL GRAIN LEATHER is the highest quality leather available. Made from the outer layer of the hide. It is not buffed or sanded and the natural grain and texture remains intact which gives it a unique and premium appearance. It is stronger, more durable and ages better over time
