Italian leather is almost universally coveted. It’s known for its durability, suppleness, and quality. This material is sought-after and used in a number of fashion pieces from jackets to shoes. But what makes Italian leather and accessories made from it so unique? Why has Italian leather become a staple in the fashion industry?

The Characteristics of Italian Leather

The material used in Italian leather women’s shoes is sourced and cured carefully. The manufacturers don’t use hide from a regular cow or the remains from the local slaughterhouse. Italian leather is sourced from specially bred cows that are raised exclusively to be the source of this hide.

This hide is carefully treated with tannins and oils to maintain its elasticity and strength, even when it’s died in different colors and molded into different shapes. The suppleness and quality allows shoemakers more freedom to create better designs and shapes. They can stitch the leather and set is more easily into the desired shape. Some manufacturers use calfskin leather, which is incredibly soft and luxurious.

The leather also ages beautifully so you won’t want to worry about it looking spotty and old as the years pass by. These shoes also have lighter soles and are much more comfortable to wear than products made from regular leather. The thin soles don’t mean that the shoes wear off quicker than normal thick-soled shoes. These shoes will still be very durable.
