It shouldn't be too hard to determine whether the leather goods that you're buying are made of good quality. You just have to rely on your senses. Here's what you need to do. 1. Look for inconsistencies. 2. Touch the leather goods. 3. Smell the product. Ensure that it doesn't smell like too many chemicals. 4. Read the labels and/or descriptions. If it says full-grain, top grain, cowhide, bull hide, semi-aniline, or aniline, these are good-quality leather goods. There are also certain leather types you must avoid. Some of these are faux leather, PU leather, and vegan leather. Make sure that your senses are satisfied first before buying the leather goods or else, you might just waste your money on something that will only last for months (if not days). --- SHOP LINKS & HELPFUL LEATHER BLOGS AND WEBSITES Purchase the Senior Italian Leather Briefcase (the bag shown in the video) at: https://www.pegai.com/products/italian-leather-briefcase-senior?_pos=2&_sid=9691f3f5d&_ss=r Buy good-quality leather hides, machines, and leatherworking tools at https://www.tannerstein.com/.
