Polyurethane leather is... in trend as a substitute for natural leather. It is used primarily as an upper material for shoes, bags and luggage, for automotive interiors and as a coating for ball surfaces, for example. The systems are suitable for use as a finish, topcoat, intermediate coat and an adhesion coat on textile substrates. The success of polyurethane leather is due in part to its economical production, but above all to its property profile which is nearly the equal of, and in some aspects superior to, that of natural leather.  1, record 1, English, - polyurethane%20leather

The pillow-type boot, also known as "balloon" boot, "puff" boot, or "sport" boot was introduced in the mid-70s to serve the needs of Canadian consumers. It is normally a boot six to ten inches in height above the sole, comprised of a warm lining, an interlining of polyurethane foam, and an upper of leather and/or man-made material such as polyurethane. The foam interlining is used throughout the boot and an additional thickness of foam is normally applied in the shaft. Stitching applied to the heavily insulated shaft gives the boot its distinctive appearance.  2, record 4, English, - puff%20boot
