Faux-leather upholstery isn't as durable as it may seem.
Iglenas/ShutterstockThough vegan alternatives can be great, from what I've seen, faux leather is not a durable alternative to its genuine counterpart.
Faux leather is made with plastics, and may be resistant to cracks and scratches, but over time it'll start to deteriorate.
Faux leather won't stretch and soften like the real thing, so I wouldn't recommend investing in it if you want comfortable, durable furniture.
If you love the look of leather and want to be cruelty-free, accent your space with the faux stuff instead.
