  Duraleather is a synthetic hide engineered to replicate natural leather in flexibility, texture, and appearance. It can be finished in smooth, pebbled, or suede styles, dyed across a wide color range, and treated for specific conditions. Its uses span belts, boots, gloves, gambeson outers, upholstery, and general goods. Consistency and scalability make it widely adopted in place of animal hides.

The two textiles come from the same source of materials and share identical composition. The distinction lies in how they are processed: one is manufactured and packaged in a thinner, lighter grade, while the other is layered and padded with extra materials to create a thicker, denser grade.

In industry terms, these are recognized as the same kind of product since they originate from the same base material. The difference in thickness alters durability, insulation, weight, and application, which is like an alternate version.

It made sense to me to put in the same sub?
