Flexible. Due to its relative thinness, suede is generally more flexible and stretchier than leather. Generally, this makes suede shoes more comfortable than their leather counterparts and allows for quicker break-in times. Because of its comfort, suede is popularly used for dress shoes and Espadrilles.
Soft. Due to the velvet structure of the corium, suede is a soft material – one reason why it's often used as lining in leather shoes.
Breathability. Due to the corium's partly porous structure and its thinness, suede is a breathing material, ideal for keeping your feet temperate during summer.
Durability. Suede is an organic material, literally designed by nature. With some luck, suede products can last a lifetime if maintained properly.
