Most people have heard of items advertised as made from full grain leather. Usually it is a full grain leather sofa or chair. Although I have heard of full grain leather boots. Anyhow, I never really thought about how it was different from any other type of leather or that there even was any other type of leather. Full grain leather is leather that has had the hair removed and that is all. It has not been sanded, corrected to remove imperfections or buffed. Full grain leather is very strong and breathable. The breathable quality makes it ideal for use for clothing.
