With the improvement of people's quality of life, the requirements for image are gradually increasing. Not only do you have to dress appropriately, but the choice of leather shoes is becoming more and more critical. Therefore, the leather of leather shoes has gradually increased.
How to choose the right leather shoes better? Let's take a look at the difference between various cortex to facilitate future choices.
1 yellow leather shoes
The pores on the grain of scalpel leather are round, distributed tightly and evenly on the leather surface, and extend straight into the leather. The leather is plump and the grain is smooth and fine.
Two buffalo leather shoes
The skin of buffalo leather has a round and thick face, and the number of pores is less than that of yellow cow leather. It extends straight into the leather and is evenly distributed on the leather surface. The grain surface is uneven, rough, and has poor abrasion resistance, but it is resistant to tension. The strength is high, so it is suitable for all kinds of mechanical tyre leather.
Three pigskin shoes
The grain of pig leather is round and thick, extending obliquely into the leather. The pores are arranged in groups of 3 on the grain, forming a triangular pattern, with uneven grains and special patterns. Pig leather has good wear resistance.
Four horse leather shoes
The grain pores of horse leather shoes are oval, slightly larger than scalper pores, and extend into the leather obliquely. The pores are arranged more regularly, forming a mountain shape, and the leather is looser, not as plump as scalpel leather.
Five sheepskin shoes
The pores on the grain surface of sheepskin shoes are oblate and extend obliquely into the leather. Several pores are arranged in groups, arranged like scales or serrations. The grain surface of sheep is fine and smooth, the pores of goats are clear, and the leather texture is very elastic.
In addition to the above types of leather, artificial leather is more common on the market. It is very similar to cowhide shoes, so many people don't know how to identify it.
In fact, it is very simple. Tell everyone a small method that allows you to easily identify genuine and fake leather shoes.
After getting the leather shoes, use your finger to press the edge of the shoe near the sole. If it is cowhide, small wrinkles will appear (less high-quality leather shoes, and more inferior leather shoes). After you let go of your fingers, the wrinkles disappear naturally. This phenomenon does not occur in synthetic leather.
In the usual maintenance, what should we pay attention to?
1 The surface of leather shoes is prone to cracks or even cracks after being worn for a long time. The repair method is: fill the cracks with paraffin wax, iron them with an iron, and finally apply the same color shoe polish. But pay attention to master the temperature and time of the iron, so as not to scorch the leather.
2 When we usually store leather shoes, I believe that many people are used to applying a layer of shoe polish before storing. As a result, the leather surface of the leather shoes is not only not protected, but may dry and crack. This is because shoe polish is a drying oil, and it is only suitable for wiping leather shoes that are worn every day, and not suitable for wiping leather shoes that have been stored for a long time.
The correct method is: cut a small piece of raw lard, and then repeatedly rub it on the surface of the leather shoes, so that the leather shoes will not dry and crack after storage.
3 If a small gap is accidentally cut on the cowhide upper, just apply a proper amount of garlic juice to stick it firmly.
When we usually choose leather shoes, in order to ensure quality and comfort, we try to choose regular stores to buy them. Not only the quality is guaranteed, but it is also not easy to buy fakes.
