Private Label Leather Fabric Texture styles for your product customization
At Szoneier Leather, texture is not just a surface finish—it’s a strategic design tool. We offer a broad and evolving range of leather textures to meet the demands of luxury, fashion, utility, and sustainability-focused brands. Each texture we provide can be applied to various materials including full-grain leather, top-grain leather, PU leather, microfiber, and plant-based vegan alternatives.
Types of Leather Textures We Offer
1. Smooth Finish
A sleek, uniform leather surface with minimal grain, ideal for showcasing simplicity and elegance. It offers a clean, refined look favored by luxury brands and modern minimalist aesthetics. Commonly used in high-end wallets, executive briefcases, and rigid gift boxes, this texture allows for precise logo embossing and edge sealing.
Recommended for: Minimalist accessories, logo-centric products Available in: Full-grain, top-grain, PU, vegan leather
2. Pebbled Grain
Characterized by small, rounded raised textures that mimic natural pores, pebbled leather offers a soft, grippy surface with excellent scratch resistance. It’s a favorite for fashion totes, structured handbags, and travel gear. The pebble depth and density can be adjusted during the embossing process.
Adds softness and visual depth Suitable for: PU and top-grain leather with high texture fidelity
3. Saffiano Texture
Made famous by European luxury houses, Saffiano features a diagonal crisscross pattern that is pressed deeply into the leather surface. It’s ultra-scratch-resistant and water-repellent, making it ideal for daily-use wallets, passport covers, and elegant packaging. The pattern delivers a structured, upscale feel and holds color extremely well.
Popular in fashion and premium accessories Finish: Matte, semi-gloss, or metallic overlays optional
4. Crocodile / Reptile Pattern
These embossed textures imitate exotic leather patterns like crocodile, python, and lizard. They’re applied using custom steel or PU rollers and are ideal for statement belts, structured handbags, or men’s business accessories. Customization includes scale size, depth, and pattern repeat.
Perfect for luxury positioning without exotic leather sourcing Optional: Matte or gloss finishing, metallic layering
5. Woven Effect
Woven textures simulate handwoven leather or fabric-style patterns, ideal for conveying craftsmanship and uniqueness. While maintaining a flat structure, the texture gives a visual sense of depth. Often applied to PU or microfiber materials for tech accessories, fashion-forward pouches, or packaging.
Ideal for tech kits, accessories, and packaging Compatible with digital printing overlays
6. Wrinkled / Waxed Vintage Finish
This finish uses natural tension and wax treatment to create irregular surface creases and color gradients, delivering a nostalgic or rugged look. Ideal for men’s messenger bags, satchels, and lifestyle accessories. The wax layer can be adjusted for sheen and aging behavior.
For heritage and vintage-themed collections Compatible with full-grain and vegetable-tanned leathers
7. Suede / Nubuck Surface
Through sanding the inner side or the grain layer, suede and nubuck textures provide a velvety, matte finish. These textures feel luxurious and are often used in high-end clutches, lining materials, or special-edition accessories. While elegant, they may require added treatment for water or stain resistance.
Used for premium tactile experience Optional: Water-repellent coating or oil finish
8. Custom Logo Texture
Szoneier can create completely customized textures that incorporate your brand name, logo, pattern, or design concept across the entire leather surface. This is especially powerful for brand storytelling and intellectual property protection. We produce unique embossing rollers to create repeatable patterns at scale while ensuring exclusivity.

Our Custom Texture Capabilities
At Szoneier Leather, custom texturing isn’t limited to selecting from a fixed template—we design and manufacture textures tailored to your brand identity, aesthetic, and product purpose. Our integrated R\&D, tooling, and production systems enable us to turn any visual concept into a high-consistency, scalable texture solution.
1. Embossing Roller & Mold Development
We custom-build steel or PU embossing rollers to transfer exclusive textures or patterns onto leather surfaces. From fine crosshatch to large-format crocodile scales or branded logos, our in-house CNC engraving technology ensures precision, repeatability, and long-term mold durability.
- Roller design: geometric, reptile, logo monograms
- Roller width up to 1400mm for full panel embossing
- Secure mold archive under client exclusivity agreement
2. PU Coating & Multi-Layer Grain Structuring
For synthetic leather (PU and microfiber), we engineer multi-layered coatings that build 3D textures directly into the surface film. This allows high-definition textures with enhanced durability, especially for saffiano, pebble, and weave effects.
- Variable hardness & elasticity layering for texture depth
- Custom finishes: matte, glossy, metallic, translucent
- Supports dual-tone embossing with color-gradient textures
3. Hand-Treated Leather Texture Techniques
For vegetable-tanned and full-grain leathers, we apply handcraft techniques such as oil waxing, brushing, crumpling, or selective sanding to create natural-looking textures that age with character. Each piece develops a slightly unique appearance—perfect for vintage and premium collections.
- Oil-waxed wrinkle finish for aged aesthetics
- Brushed grain and pull-up effect for dynamic coloration
- Ideal for small-batch artisanal production
4. Heat Transfer Texture Films
For microfiber or eco-friendly materials, we use heat-transfer films to apply textures such as woven grids, digital microdots, carbon fiber effects, or natural fiber mimicry. This is particularly useful for low-MOQ runs or non-standard materials.
- Precise pressure + heat control for stable adhesion
- Great for tech-style finishes or sustainable collections
- Allows for texture + printed overlay combination

Cooperating Brands Trusted
Your product is produced in reliable leather factory like our already cooperating international brand partners below:
Q1. Can I create a completely new texture just for my brand?
Yes. We offer full texture development via roller or PU formulation. Your pattern will remain exclusive to your company.
Q2. Is there a MOQ for texture customization?
Yes. Typically 300-500 pcs depending on material and method. For PU, MOQ can be lower. Ask for a specific quote.
Q3. Can I emboss both a texture and a logo?
Yes. We can combine base texture and a focal logo placement, or do all-over monogramming.
Q4. Does texture affect leather thickness?
Slightly. Some deep embossing may add 0.1–0.2mm to surface thickness, which we account for in sampling.
Q5. How long does it take to develop and sample a new texture?
It usually takes 7–12 working days to develop a custom texture sample, depending on the material and embossing method. For fully customized embossing rollers (e.g. crocodile, monogram), mold carving may require 10–15 additional days. We offer expedited options for repeat customers and bulk production planning.
Q6. What materials are compatible with deep or complex embossing?
We recommend top-grain leather, PU leather, and microfiber for deeper, more intricate embossing patterns. These materials hold textures well without cracking. For full-grain leather, we advise using natural or light pebble textures to preserve its breathable surface and avoid over-compression.
Q7. Will the texture pattern wear off over time with use?
Our textures are engineered for long-term durability. PU and microfiber embossing is pressure-fixed during lamination and remains stable under daily use. For natural leather, some shallow grain patterns may soften slightly over time—this is often desirable for a vintage effect. We also offer coating options (matte, semi-gloss, waterproof) to enhance texture retention.
Q8. Can you ensure our texture design remains exclusive and protected?
Yes. For clients creating proprietary textures or brand-logo patterns, we offer exclusive-use agreements and securely archive your custom roller or digital files. We will not reuse your texture for other clients. If needed, we can also help with intellectual property registration support in key export markets.

Texture + Material Matching Guide
Expert Recommendations for Combining Leather Textures with the Right Material Base
In leather product development, the harmony between surface texture and the underlying material plays a decisive role in defining the product’s tactile feel, visual appeal, structural performance, and overall brand expression. Each leather type responds differently to embossing, surface treatment, and wear. Choosing the wrong combination can result in uneven texture, delamination, cracking, or costly reworks.
At Szoneier Leather, we draw from 18+ years of experience to guide our clients in making texture-material decisions that maximize product function, visual aesthetics, and production consistency. Below is our in-depth matching guide:
1. Full-Grain Leather + Natural Grain / Smooth Finish / Waxed Wrinkle
Full-grain leather retains the original top layer of the hide with all natural pores and fibers intact. It is breathable, strong, and inherently beautiful, which makes it ideal for minimalist or premium finishes.
Best Matching Textures:
- Smooth finish for showcasing the hide’s natural quality
- Light natural grain to enhance authenticity without overpowering
- Waxed wrinkle or vintage crack for a rugged, aged aesthetic
Avoid: Heavy embossing like crocodile or deep saffiano that distorts natural fiber integrity.
Perfect For: Luxury men’s bags, artisanal belts, business wallets, vintage-inspired collections.
2. Top-Grain Leather + Pebbled / Saffiano / Custom Logo Texture
Top-grain leather is slightly sanded for consistency while maintaining excellent structural strength. It offers a perfect balance of clean finish and embossability.
Best Matching Textures:
- Pebbled grain for softness and scratch resistance
- Saffiano crosshatch for sleek modern looks
- Monogram or brand-logo textures for private label identity
Strengths: Holds pattern definition extremely well, allows precise embossing with controlled depth, ideal for high-volume branded products.
Perfect For: Designer handbags, tech folios, fashion wallets, promotional leather items.
3. PU Leather + Crocodile / Saffiano / Woven / Logo Texture
PU (polyurethane) synthetic leather is highly moldable and responds excellently to texture stamping. It’s also available in a wide range of finishes, making it the most versatile base for embossed textures.
Best Matching Textures:
- Crocodile or reptile patterns for luxury statement products
- Saffiano or basket-weave textures for fashion-forward looks
- Custom logo textures for full-surface branding
Advantages: Highly consistent embossing results, scalable for mass production, and can be layered with matte, metallic, or pearl coatings.
Perfect For: Private label bags, card holders, gift sets, packaging-grade leather panels.
4. Microfiber Leather + Technical Grid / Fine Saffiano / Digital Patterns
Microfiber leather, a high-end PU alternative, offers high dimensional stability, durability, and environmental friendliness. It’s excellent for modern aesthetics and technical finishes.
Best Matching Textures:
- Precision saffiano for clean, scratch-proof surfaces
- Fine grid patterns for tech and minimalist applications
- Brushed or woven textures for modern consumer products
Advantages: Holds texture with sharp clarity, great for digital overlays and printed details. Performs well under wear and tear.
Perfect For: Laptop sleeves, fashion pouches, branded tech accessories, business gifts.
5. Vegetable-Tanned Leather + Light Embossing / Oil-Wax Vintage / Hand-Treated Texture
Vegetable-tanned leather is natural, breathable, and free from chrome and heavy metals. It’s favored by eco-conscious brands and artisanal product lines.
Best Matching Textures:
- Light embossing for subtle logos or tactile detail
- Waxed surface with wrinkles for handcrafted vintage style
- Manual texturing or burnishing for unique, small-batch aesthetics
Avoid: Deep, mechanical embossing—may damage the surface or cause stiffness.
Perfect For: Eco wallets, hand-stitched journals, slow fashion belts, custom box wraps.
6. Plant-Based Vegan Leather + Smooth / Light Grain / Soft Brushed Texture
Vegan leathers made from apple waste, cactus fibers, or corn-based PU have unique fiber compositions that are ideal for soft or shallow textures.
Best Matching Textures:
- Smooth finish to highlight natural character
- Subtle brushed or linen grain for visual texture
- Light logo embossing that doesn’t compromise surface integrity
Considerations: Deep embossing may not be ideal depending on the plant base. Always test for elasticity and stretch.
Perfect For: Eco wallet collections, branded cardholders, gift bags, startup sustainable products.
Additional Expert Advice:
- Texture durability depends not only on the base leather but also on top coatings and usage environment.
- We always recommend prototype testing on real production material before committing to bulk embossing.
- Custom roller development is available for exclusive brand textures (e.g., signature logos, monograms, pattern motifs).
- Texturing affects thickness: some deep patterns may increase thickness by 0.1–0.3 mm. We adjust this during sampling.
