Leather is a flexible and durable material manufactured by tanning animal skin or raw hide. Globally, it is one of the most widely traded commodities. Leather is mostly produced from cattle skin; however, lamb and deer skin are also used for the creation of soft leather which is fairly expensive. Deer skin is used for the production of indoor shoes and work gloves; but, the production of such leather is minimal owing to the restriction imposed by governments regarding use of deer skin. Skins of many other animals such as snake, buffalo goat, kangaroo, alligator, and yak are used for the production of leather. The production of leather has noticeable environmental impact due to the usage and release of chemicals from the leather to water bodies, increasing biological oxygen demand, and endangering the lives of humans and animals dependent on the source. During the transformation process, huge amounts of pollutants are released into the atmosphere. These include gases such as hydrogen sulfide, which increase global warming levels across the globe. Production of leather is responsible for the increase in global carbon footprint, which is defined as the total set of greenhouse emission created by an event expressed as carbon dioxide equivalent. Finished leather is used in production of various products such as furniture covers, shoes, jackets, belts, wallets, trousers, wallpaper, and for bookbinding.

Efforts undertaken by manufacturers in terms of innovation and new product design are the factors accelerating the growth of the footwear segment that will inadvertently drive the growth of the finished leather market. Rising population coupled with the increasing disposable income are potential drivers for growth of this market. However, stringent government regulations regarding the usage of certain animal skin (such as deer) for production of leather can hinder the growth of this market during the forecast period.
Geographically, Asia Pacific held significant share of the market in 2016 and is anticipated to retain its position during the forecast period. Robust leather manufacturing industry in emerging economies of Asia Pacific such as India and China is the prime reason for the growth of the finished leather market in this region.
