Suede Vs Faux Suede | Advantages/Disadvantages | Where to Buy 

You didn't mention an advantage of a genuine suede jacket.

I love faux suede jackets, like the one on my profile pic, because they're machine washable and very durable.

You find these jackets a lot in thrift shops for like 35 bucks. Great jacket to match with a whole light jeans outfit. A bit oversized suede jacket with a slightly oversized denim shirt , a fresh coloured new era cap. and rockin a good pair of sneakers. Classic adidas sneakers. And last but not least . a workers pant or distressed jeans.

Subscribed bro, don't wanna blow all my money so think I will stick with synthetic 👍🏻

Hello! I own a genuine suede jacket, but I'm very interested in buying ( online) a printed (floral) peachskin jacket. I'm hoping you can help me! Can you, please, tell me if peachskin looks like real suede?

Hi. What’s the brand of your genuine suede jacket?

I was at TJ Maxx, and found a Peter Millar Suede Vest.. I was shocked at the retail price, $698. The TJ Maxx price $39.99 absolute steal..

Where is your genuine leather jacket from? It is the style I have been looking for!

Which one is more durable Sir original or fake one?

Great video!!

It’s important to stipulate that even if a product states genuine suede that’s the lowest quality available. The king of all suede jackets is the apc louis Wong suede bomber. This is an investment piece you should be willing to pay a good amount. Where is the one you have in the video from?

Some people also have issues with the ethics of leather. Agree or disagree with that topic, it's true. Leather isn't always a byproduct like people assume. Animals are often killed just for their skin and kept in extremely cruel conditions especially at the cheap end. Just saying there is another reason to shop for faux suede and I believe some suede can be more real looking than others.

Good job Crunchy!

great and informative, thank you.

I buy vintage leather jackets. I save a lot of money and still get the real thing.

The genuine side jacket you have looks banging in the vid, faux suede in the most part looks and feels shit. Totally get it’s more durable, that’s polyester for you. Would rather just a cotton jacket that faux.

How would I know if mines genuine .. Can it be faux even if it says gen leather on inside...im trying find best way to clean it.. Was a gift from uncle who has had it since 80s...

I find a vintage one for like 42 and I’m trying to figure out if its real or not

Can we wear poly suede in rain?

levi sued?

I don’t know how I feel about those pockets on that jacket?

I don't think you mentioned the advantage of faux suede where one avoids directly supporting a cruel and deadly industry. Genuine suede is the skin of an animal who was killed (not euthanized) often in terrible ways. These animals also live lives in horrible conditions. Not just cattle, but even dogs! You, reader, have you ever had a relationship with a dog? If you never met that dog you had a relationship with, would it have been okay for someone to kill them? Not to mention the tannery workers (humans) who have approximately 5x greater risk for cancers and other untold health detriments. It's an all-around a needless and disgusting industry. I don't mean to be one of 'those' people but frankly it's a barbaric industry that if we understood (and didn't casually forget about), we would never support with our own money.

What about £ 1500 ?

500? No way

you need advice on a new hair cut

bomber game

Please work on the videos I barely got anything out of this there's no depth and the jackets are barely broken down I'm sure you can improve as you have potential but also fix the haircut

dress like a genuine gentle... man

Advantage of faux suede is an innocent animal didn't have to have their throat slit so that they can be made into a jacket.

500 is a lot but you can just tell - probably goat leather
