Description
A Leather finished with a raised nap or pile. The nap on most suede is produced by buffing or abrading the flesh side or split side of leather; the exception is for velvet suede which is produced from the grain side. Good suede has an even nap with dense fibers of a uniform length. It is usually oiled to make it supple but not greasy. In general, velvet suedes are finer than flesh suedes; young animals (kid and calf) also give finer suedes. Suede is not as durable as high quality leather.
See attached iamge(s).
