How long can a leather last for?
When properly cared for, genuine leather can last for years. Many premium leather crafters even guarantee their work to last for decades, even up to 100 years.
This is because genuine leather is simply built to last thanks to natural durability.
Does leather wear over time?
The accumulation of dirt, body oils, sunlight and wear and tear (like spilling a drink on a leather coaster) create a darkening and soft sheen to leather goods.
Over time the leather will oxidize and age naturally to give these effects. This is a process that cannot be replicated through any artificial means.
