How do leather floors fit and how practical are they?

In my opinion, such a flooring is very effective and creative, but I understand with my mind that it is not for long. I would like to know what time they will keep such a presentable look? If you take, for example, a leather jacket, then even with a very careful attitude 3-4 years of socks and the look is not the same.
Features of the device of such floors
Leather flooring refers to a coating consisting of tiles of various sizes. For their fastening, the same technology is used as when laying a laminate or cork floors. Thus, the most expensive part when installing leather floors is directly purchasing the material. As for their installation, this process is simple and you can cope with the work on your own if you wish.
Undoubtedly! Today, leather flooring is one of the most expensive in the world.
Such floors have really gained great popularity recently. And first of all, they are chosen by those who seek to surround themselves with exclusively environmentally friendly materials.

So that you, true, noticed that the floors of your friends are stylish and magnificent.
Is this all practical?
Do not confuse the skin from which jackets are sewn, and the one that is used in the arrangement of floors. Even with tactile contact, you will feel the difference. To the touch, the leather flooring is durable and reliable. This is ensured by special technology for processing leather for the floor, as well as a correctly selected base, which are used as:
