Suede.

Do you have any idea what kind of leather this is?

Suede is a type of leather with a napped finish. The term comes from the French ‘gants de Suède’, which literally means ‘swedish gloves’.

The leather is smooth and velvet-like.

If this handbag was made in velvet, it would be cheaper. But Suede is more durable and in the end, it’s real leather, which is why it’s as pricey as grained leather.

The Givenchy Antigona Suede Tote Bags are special edition for the Spring 2015 Collection. Suede gives you a total different experience than other leathers. It’s extra smooth and also a bit harder to maintain. Generally the best way to take care of Suede is to use dry sponge or suede brush to get dust or dirt of.

As you can see on the images, the colors are sharper and brighter. These Givenchy Antigona Tote are made from bull leather. It’s a cool choice for the new season.
