suede and leather achieved through synthetic fibers. Usually from polyester or
nylon micro fiber (microfibre) Has a very short pile length and is very soft to
the touch.

waterproof vinyl. Achieves the look of leather with superior stain and water
resistance along with very consistent color and texture.
Jacquard: woven on a loom with multiple threads of different colors. The

patterns woven tapestry fabrics.
