Wikipedia
Suede
Suede (pronounced SWAYD) is a type of leather with a fuzzy, napped finish, commonly used for jackets, shoes, fabrics, purses, furniture, and other items. The term comes from the French gants de Suède, which literally means "gloves from Sweden". The term was first used by The Oxford English Dictionary in 1884. Suede is made from the underside of the animal skin, which is softer and more pliable than the outer skin layer, though not as durable.

Suede
Suede is a type of leather with a napped finish, commonly used for jackets, shoes, shirts, purses, furniture and other items. The term comes from the French "gants de Suède", which literally means "Swedish gloves". Suede leather is made from the underside of the skin, primarily lamb, although goat, calf and deer are commonly used. Splits from thick hides of cow and deer are also sueded, but, due to the fibre content, have a shaggy nap. Because suede does not include the tough exterior skin layer, suede is less durable but softer than standard leather. Its softness, thinness, and pliability make it suitable for clothing and delicate uses; suede was originally used for women's gloves. Suede leather is also popular in upholstery, shoes, bags, and other accessories, and as a lining for other leather products. Due to its textured nature and open pores, suede may become dirty and quickly absorb liquids.

swād, n. undressed kid—often adj., as 'suède gloves.' [Fr. Suède, Swede.]

David Olney was very still, sitting upright with David Olney guitar on, wearing the coolest hat and a beautiful rust suede jacket... I just want the picture to be as graceful and dignified as it was, because it at first looked like David Olney was just taking a moment.
