Eco-leather is an advanced artificial material that can be difficult to distinguish from genuine leather.
Sometimes the truth is revealed only during use, when it is too late to return the product to an unscrupulous seller.
To avoid getting into an unpleasant situation, it is better to conduct your mini-test right in the store.
A drop of water or a damp cloth will help to verify the authenticity of the leather. This is the test that eco-leather does not pass.
The point is that genuine leather has the ability to absorb moisture. Artificial material lacks this ability.
When going to buy new shoes or a bag, it is worth taking a wet wipe with you. Just wipe it over the surface of the product and watch what happens next.
If moisture begins to be absorbed, then you are indeed dealing with genuine leather.
