is a type of Leather used to make Boot s, Clothing and fashion accessories such as Handbags . Suede is made from the inner splits of a side of leather; because it does not include the skin layer, suede is less durable but softer than standard ("full-grain") leather. Suede has a Brush ed Texture and resembles Fabric , making it suitable for comfortable clothing. However, due to its textured nature and open pores, suede becomes dirty quickly and is especially susceptible to common stains such as food spills. As it is not washable, but must instead be cleaned carefully with special suede cleaners, it is not recommended for daily-wear items. When suede gets wet, it turns a darker colour and can become damaged, as water drives out the essential oils that keep suede supple.
