Leather is described as the pelt of an animal which has been transformed by tanning into a non-putrescible, useful material. A pelt is also named as animal hide with fur attached.

2. Naked leather - a hide that has been dyed, with no other finishes applied; and
3. Suede - leathers that are finished by buffing the flesh side (opposite the grain side) to produce a nap by napping process, and is unrelated to the type of skin used.;
