The primary difference is that leather is made from the skin of an animal after the hair has been removed while felt is generally made just from the hair on the skin by "smooshing" it together and getting it to mat. Links are provided to the Wikipedia articles on leather and felt. Surf on over and read just the first paragraph of each article (or more, if you want to). That first paragraph is concise and will make things clear.

What were the Roman sandals made of?

"Foot-gear was mainly of two kinds, but was worn in many styles and customs. The rules for shoes weren't as strict as those for regular clothing. The calceus was a sandal like shoe strapped to the foot, mainly for internal wear. The soleae was a full shoe completely enclosing the foot, much more similar to the modern shoe. Shoes and sandals were made in varying materials and colors, again depending on social status. Leather was by far the most common material and could be easily dyed to reflect position such as red shoes for patricians." from http://www.unrv.com/culture/ancient-roman-clothing.php
