In modern footwear manufacturing, the choice of upper material directly impacts the product’s appearance, texture, comfort, and durability. As a professional synthetic leather company, Yudeng specializes in the research and development of a wide range of high-quality upper materials. Space leather, a premium PU leather, has become the preferred choice of many high-end footwear brands due to its unique properties and texture.
Space leather, a premium PU synthetic leather, utilizes a sophisticated coating and base fabric integration process to create a smooth, delicate, and three-dimensional surface. It is commonly used in the uppers of athletic shoes, casual shoes, business shoes, children’s shoes, and more. Compared to ordinary PU, space leather offers superior performance in the following aspects:
Premium Surface Texture: Space leather’s surface is delicate and smooth, with a natural sheen that resists creases, creating a visual effect closer to that of genuine leather.
Excellent Flexibility and Folding Resistance: It can easily withstand over 50,000 flex cycles, and its upper is resistant to cracking even with prolonged wear.
Excellent Waterproof and Stain Resistance: The outer coating effectively repels water and dust, making it ideal for versatile wear.
Lightweight Design: PU material is lighter than genuine leather, significantly reducing shoe weight and improving wearing comfort.
Yudeng utilizes an environmentally friendly PU coating and a high-strength textile base fabric composite process during production, ensuring the space leather’s balanced appearance, strength, and environmental performance.


We understand that each footwear brand has unique material requirements, so Yudeng offers comprehensive OEM/ODM customization services to meet your individual requirements.
Color Customization: We support customization from classic black, white, and gray to vibrant hues, with standard color palettes and special crafted tones available.
Thickness and Weight Customization: Standard thickness ranges from 0.6mm to 1.2mm, allowing customization based on shoe shape and function.
Texture Customization: Surface effects such as matte, glossy, embossed, and delicate leather grain are available to meet the needs of various shoe designs.
Backing Options: We offer a variety of backing options, including non-woven, polyester, or knitted fabrics, to enhance formability and comfort.
Cut Sample Service: We provide A4 or roll samples for convenient design proofing and testing.
Whether small-batch development or large-scale production, Yudeng offers a swift response and rigorous quality control procedures to ensure the consistency of each batch of materials.

TÜV Rheinland certification: ensure product quality and safety;
REACH EU Chemicals Regulation Compliance: No allergenic or environmentally harmful substances;
