When it comes to choosing the perfect bag or accessory, the material it's made from plays a crucial role. At muud, we pride ourselves on using genuine leather, a decision rooted in both quality and sustainability. Let's dive into the general benefits of genuine leather over synthetic alternatives like PU leather.
Durability and longevity
One of the most significant advantages of genuine leather is its unparalleled durability. Real leather ages beautifully, developing a unique patina that adds character over time. Unlike faux leather, which can crack and peel, genuine leather withstands daily wear and tear, making it an excellent investment for long-term use.
Environmental impact
While the initial cost of genuine leather might be higher, it's a more sustainable choice in the long run. PU leather, made from petroleum-based products, contributes to environmental pollution and doesn’t decompose easily. Genuine leather, being a byproduct of the meat industry, is more biodegradable and environmentally friendly. Investing in quality leather goods means fewer replacements and less waste.
Our commitment to sustainability
At muud, we are committed to ethical and sustainable practices. That's why we have partnered with The Leather Working Group (LWG), an organization dedicated to promoting sustainable and responsible leather manufacturing. This collaboration ensures that the leather we use meets stringent environmental and social standards. By choosing muud, you’re not only investing in high-quality products but also supporting sustainable practices in the leather industry.
Aesthetics and style
The natural grain and texture of genuine leather give each piece a distinct look. No two leather items are the same, making each one unique. This uniqueness is something synthetic materials can’t replicate. Genuine leather products from muud not only look stylish but also exude a timeless elegance.
Maintenance and care
Caring for genuine leather is relatively straightforward. With proper maintenance, such as conditioning and avoiding excessive moisture and direct sunlight, your leather items can last a lifetime. PU leather, on the other hand, doesn't offer the same longevity, often requiring replacement after a few years due to wear and tear.
At muud, we believe in the beauty and functionality of genuine leather. Our handcrafted leather products are designed to offer both elegance and practicality for modern crafters and fashion enthusiasts alike. Explore our collection and experience the unmatched quality of genuine leather.
