This chocolate brown faux leather offers a rich, understated finish with a supple feel that’s easy to handle and sew. The smooth PU surface gives the appearance of leather, while the soft textile backing adds stability and comfort, making it suitable for both structured and semi-structured projects. Hard-wearing without being stiff, it’s a reliable option for accessories and garments where durability and a clean finish are important.
Made from a polyurethane and polyester blend, this fabric holds its shape well and copes with regular use. Ideal for bags, purses, skirts, jackets, costume work, and creative projects, it’s a practical alternative to leather that delivers impact with less maintenance.

Please read - important tips on washing fabric, shrinkage and colour representation.
Please allow 2-10% shrinkage on fabrics to be on the safe side. Wash before making up in the same manner as you would with subsequent washes (including drying methods)
Please test a sample area first to find the most suitable way to wash your chosen fabrics, as we cannot accept liability for fabrics washed or treated incorrectly.
Whilst every effort is made, we cannot guarantee that the colours you see on your screen are accurate because every screen shows colours differently.
