Recently I bought a "leather" jacket from a store called DEMO in the crossgates mall in Albany, NY. This jacket comes with paperwork which clearly states it is a genuine leather jacket, a "certified leather" stamp on the inside seem, and is sold my retailers as leather.
After a minor rip I took it too a tailor to fix and low and behold he tells me it is not leather at all but PVC also called pleather. After looking at the paper work that comes with it again I could not see anyway that what is stated could be more of a complete flat out lie.
I quote from one of the tags recieved with the Jacket "CONGRATULATIONS on your purchase of this fine ECKO UNLTD. Leather jacket... We used the finest genuine leater consisting of superior quality skins prepared by expert tanning is that not an out right lie. I have since wrote letters too Ecko to no reply. Is this not complete fraud?
