If you are asking whether they sell fake shoes from expensive brands then no. If you are asking whether they use real leather and real fur then it is also a no.
When a pair of shoes says that the upper is leather, it means that the top part of the shoe is leather and the sole is man made. There is nothing that is called upper leather.
The leather in shoes typically comes from animal hides, primarily cows. The hides are processed and tanned to create durable, flexible material. Sustainable and ethical sourcing is increasingly important in the industry.
By tanning cow hide you are producing the material leather. Leather can be used in many things like furniture, clothing or shoes. Leather can be fake or real.

Authentic Gucci shoes often feature leather straps, especially in classic styles. However, not all models do—some use fabric, rubber, or metal details. Always check official details for the specific pair!
Patent leather shoes are most distinguishable from other shoes by the material they are made out of. Patent leather is industrially produced leather which has a much different look and feel than traditional leather.
From my experience, I soften leather shoes by wearing them around the house with thick socks and gently flexing the leather. I also use a good leather conditioner to keep them supple and prevent cracking.
PU leather, aka Bycast Leather, is Reconstituted Leather (small leather scraps) or Bonded Leather that is layered with thick Polyurethane to give it a sheen like real leather. The image of such a process that comes to my mind is like gluing scraps of wood together and pack it really tight to look & feel like real wood. Since it is synthetic material, it doesn't last as long as real leather. However, for a handbag, I personally think it is ok to use. For shoes, I wouldn't recommend it though, as shoes tend to wear out faster and Polyurethane is not a breathable material like leather. As for sheep skin....well, within the accessories industry (bags, belts, shoes, planners, etc), they classify any animal skin (cow, calf, lamb, sheep, even pig) as "leather."
