About This Product
The uppers of shoes are folded over the toe at every step, and repeated folding can crack the finished grain and reduce water resistance. This apparatus tests leather by folding specimens repeatedly while they stand in water, and a water penetration test shows when water comes through. It helps compare how well different leathers keep their water resistance in use.
