Which is better for leather shoes, embossed leather or soft leather?

Personally, I think the embossed leather is a little better and has better air permeability.

Embossed leather: Cowhide products are pressed by steel lines to produce various pattern effects, which are used to make shoes or clothes. Embossed leather generally refers to embossed cowhide, and some laymen refer to embossed leather as embossed leather. Embossed leather includes embossed cowhide and embossed sheepskin.

Embossed cowhide is divided into: one layer cowhide and two layers cowhide. Sticking cowhide on the head can do a variety of effects, such as: two-color, hand-rubbing two-color, oil wax, high light, pearl, water washing, gold brushing, silk screen printing, snake pattern full cutting, ordinary finishing and so on. However, relatively speaking, the processing technology of two-layer laminated cowhide is more limited than the crocodile pearlescent effect of the first layer laminated cowhide (provided by tanning and tanning leather), which is generally: two-color, pearlescent, water washing, common finishing and so on. Embossed sheepskin Compared with embossed cowhide, embossed sheepskin has certain limitations. That is, the width of sheepskin is small. If the pattern used is too large or too wide, it will not show the style effect of embossed leather. So there are some small steel plates especially suitable for sheepskin, commonly known as small steel plates. At the same time, the development cost of small plate will be lower than that of ordinary steel plate. It is also the choice of some manufacturers. On the other hand, some lines are particularly suitable for sheepskin embossing.
