Faux leather is a fabric that looks like leather, but is actually made out of other materials. It's commonly used to make a wide range of products, including garments and shoes, furniture and vehicle seats, and electronics accessories. Also known as leatherette, pleather, or NaugahydeÂ®, this material is often cheaper and more versatile than real leather, but may not be as high-quality.
Bonded leather, though it contains real leather, is similar to faux leather in that it has an imprinted surface and a fabric or mesh base. Leather hides generally average a total of a 35- to 60-square-foot area, so it takes multiple hides sewn together to create a couch or a chair.
