Animal hide that has been tanned so it no longer rots. Suede is leather with the inner side brushed to a nap.
Watched ingredients get highlighted on every product panel you open.
- Where it comes from
- Cattle and other hides, tanned in a tannery. Makers name the leather, not the tanning agents.
- Why it's in the product
- Patches and trim on rope and plush toys.
- Safety and toxicity
- Not a polymer, so it sheds no microplastic. Chewed-off pieces can be swallowed, as with rawhide.
