One aspect of the present invention is a split leather product comprising a base material made of split leather and a skin layer laminated on the surface of the base material, wherein the skin layer is formed of ultrafine fibers. A split leather product comprising a composite of a polymer elastic body impregnated in a void of the entangled nonwoven fabric. According to such a split leather product, the entangled nonwoven fabric exerts the function of reinforcing the physical strength without impairing the leather-like texture, like the collagen fibers intersecting vertically and horizontally contained in the network layer. Thereby, not only the surface appearance, but also a split leather product in which the sensitivity based on wrinkles and the like generated when folded is similar to leather is obtained. |
