Yudeng’s PU synthetic leather for footwear features a high-performance polyurethane (PU) coating on the surface and an industrial-grade non-woven backing, achieving a balance of lightweight, durable, and comfortable. We’ve optimized the formula for shoe uppers: the surface is abrasion-resistant, scratch-resistant, and flex-resistant, while maintaining excellent breathability and tactile feel. Suitable for a variety of shoe styles, including athletic shoes, casual shoes, children’s shoes, dress shoes, ankle boots, and high-top boots—they can handle everything from decorative aesthetics to functional requirements requiring repeated flexing.
Texture and Surface Feel (Customizable)
A wide variety of textures are available, ranging from delicate glossy, matte, simulated cowhide grain, deerskin-like suede (nubuck effect), to mirror-like luster and special embossed patterns. After coating, we use precision embossing rollers and heat-setting processes to control the depth and clarity of the texture. Surface coatings (such as scratch-resistant coatings, stain-resistant treatments, or hydrophobic treatments) ensure a durable texture and stable feel. For dress shoes that demand a premium feel, we can create low-gloss, naturally wrinkled effects. For sportswear and leisure shoes, we offer microporous, breathable, and scrub-resistant stain-resistant surfaces.
Base Fabric and Backing Process (Non-Woven Fabric Details)
For the shoe backing, we use industrial-grade non-woven fabric (available in polyester or polypropylene bases). This base fabric is specifically controlled for tensile strength, thickness consistency, and breathability. Through a precise lamination process (hot melt/sol-gel or water-based adhesive), the PU and non-woven fabric are securely bonded without excessive thickness, ensuring smooth stitching and preventing stitch slippage during sewing while also improving overall flex resistance. Thin reinforcement layers can be applied to areas requiring additional support (such as the upper and toe cap) to enhance dimensional stability and wear resistance.
Yudeng synthetic leather manufacturer offer comprehensive customization: Colors can be matched to Pantone or custom samples, and small batches of samples and color variations are acceptable. Thicknesses cover the common range for footwear materials (we can recommend appropriate thicknesses based on shoe shape, such as thinner for casual sneakers and thicker for enhanced support in boots), and thickness tolerances can be controlled to ensure consistency across large-scale production. Textures support varying embossing depths, printing techniques, and surface treatments (such as stain-resistant, hydrophobic, and UV-resistant). Backing materials and bonding methods are available to ensure optimal sewing and comfort. We also support logo embossing, heat transfer printing, laser perforation, and micro-porous ventilation. Finished product samples are available upon request for detailed verification.
In today’s market, environmental protection has become a mandatory requirement for footwear material procurement. Yudeng’s space leather Pu leather has passed multiple international certifications:
TÜV test reports: Ensure reliable physical properties and durability.
REACH certification: Comply with EU chemical regulations to avoid harmful chemicals.
ROHS compliance: Ensure product safety for the environment and human health.
OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification: Textiles and leather are non-toxic and harmless, making them safe for use in footwear materials intended for close or prolonged contact with the skin.

Yudeng’s custom PU leather not only offers outstanding appearance but also boasts exceptional durability and process adaptability, making it suitable for a wide range of shoe styles:
Sports/Casual Shoes: Lightweight and flexible PU leather offers both breathability and support, making it ideal for everyday wear and light exercise.
Leather Boots/Work Shoes: Thick, durable PU material can partially replace genuine leather, improving flex resistance and durability while reducing costs.
Fashionable Women’s/Children’s Shoes: A wide selection of colors and textures adds a touch of design to the uppers, and environmental certification provides peace of mind for children’s shoes.
Functional/Waterproof Shoes: Specially coated PU leather offers a degree of water repellency, making it suitable for outdoor or urban performance footwear.
