How to distinguish real leather and synthetic leather

There are several ways to distinguish real leather from synthetic leather:

1. Observe the texture and pores: Real leather has natural and irregular texture and pores, 

while synthetic leather has more uniform texture and pores, lacking naturalness.

2. Feel the texture and hand: Real leather has a soft and comfortable texture with good breathability, 

while synthetic leather may feel relatively stiff and have poor breathability.

3. Smell: Real leather has a natural leather scent, while synthetic leather may emit an artificial material scent.

4. Fire test: By burning a small piece of the leather sample, real leather will emit a smoky odor of burned feathers, 

while synthetic leather will emit a pungent odor.

5. Observe the label and identification: Generally, real leather products will be labeled as "Real Leather" or "Natural Leather", 

while synthetic leather products will be labeled as "Artificial Leather" or "Synthetic Leather".

It is worth noting that due to the development of modern technology, some synthetic leathers have very similar appearance 

and feel to real leather, making it difficult to distinguish them by naked eye. Therefore, when purchasing leather products,

it is recommended to choose formal brands and merchants, and pay attention to the quality and quality assurance of the products.
