Microfibers

• Microfiber is defined as a staple fiber or filaments of linear density approximately 1 dtex or less, and above 0.3 dtex. Although acrylic, viscose and polypropylene are available for the production of microfibers, polyester and polyamide are the main source. The fabrics made from them can be 100% microfiber or in blends with wool, cotton or viscose. Microfibers are half the diameter of a fine silk fiber, one-third the diameter of cotton, one-quarter the diameter of fine wool, and one hundred times finer than human hair. In order to be classified as a microfiber, the fiber must be less than 1 dtex in width. Fabrics made of microfibers are generally lightweight, resist wrinkling, have a luxurious drape on the body, retain shape, and resist pilling. They are also relatively strong and durable in relation to other fabrics of similar weight, and they are more breathable and more comfortable to wear. Fabrics made of microfibers show lower heat conductance and therefore higher thermal insulation properties. Microfiber fibers exhibit a warmer feeling than conventional fabrics depending on pressure, which may be due to the difference in the fiber and fabric surface in contact with the human skin (Schacher et al., 2000; Purane and Panigrahi, 2007).

1. Affordable

• Faux leather is cheaper, compared to leather. It can be sewn just like fabric. No high skill needed like a leather artisan would need. The lower cost of this material is one major factor in this material being used to make a lot of things today.

2. Plastic smell

• Fake leather is made of plastic and has a synthetic smell.

3. Does not age well

• Real leather develops a beautiful patina which is impossible for in faux leather.

4. Not breathable

• A disadvantage of faux leather is that it is not porous and does not allow air to pass through it.
• When making clothes this is a major disadvantage, as when you wear faux leather clothing you sweat a lot and the sweat doesnot go out – not the greatest summer wear fabric.

5. Does not Stretch

• Leather has a natural flexibility and stretch; this is not so for fake leather. Faux leather is not as pliable and stretchy as real leather.

6. Very sensitive to heat

• Because it is made of plastic, it is susceptible to heat. It will melt in high heat.
• A very good quality faux leather can look and feel much better and even last longer than a very low-quality genuine leather.
