The main material we chose for this bag is Toray's Ultrasuede® .
It has a moist texture reminiscent of high-quality suede and a soft, smooth feel, and is often used in luxury products, especially interiors and car interiors. It is attracting attention around the world as a material with high quality and excellent properties among suede-like artificial leathers.
In this article, we will introduce the features and advantages of Ultrasuede® from three perspectives.
Durability and ease of use
The greatest feature of Ultrasuede® is its durability. Genuine suede is vulnerable to water and easily damaged, but Ultrasuede® is water-repellent and stain-resistant, making it a very easy-to-use material for everyday use. It also resists wrinkling and losing its shape, so it can always be kept in beautiful condition.
In addition, since it can be used in cut pieces, it can be manufactured in the same way as high-quality genuine leather bags, and it is an extremely excellent material from the maker's point of view. The deciding factor in choosing Ultrasuede® from among several candidate materials was that it can be handled like genuine leather in the manufacturing process. This is also the reason why it is possible to achieve both the appearance of a genuine leather bag and the lightness of a woven fabric bag.
2) Sustainability
Toray is also committed to reducing the environmental impact of Ultrasuede®, and is constantly evolving the material as a sustainable material through measures such as the introduction of a polymer recycling system and a transition to plant-derived polymers.
It also contributes to animal rights by not using natural leather. As the demand for sustainability increases, Ultrasuede® is attracting attention as a material that reduces the burden on the global environment.
3) Ease of maintenance
Ultrasuede® is very easy to care for. Since it does not require any special care, simple care such as brushing will keep the product looking nice for a long time.
Compared to genuine leather suede or synthetic leather, it is a material with good breathability and is less prone to mold.
Ultrasuede® is a high-quality, eco-friendly, suede-like artificial leather that is gaining more and more attention. It is supported by many consumers for its beauty, practicality, and environmental friendliness.
Like this material, we aim to become a brand loved by many people as a beautiful, practical, and environmentally friendly option.
