Leather has the ability to absorb water, but the amount it can absorb varies depending on the type of leather and its finish. Generally, unfinished or natural leather can absorb more water compared to finished or treated leather. In general, leather can absorb up to 30% of its weight in water before it becomes saturated. It is important to note that excessive exposure to water can damage leather, affecting its appearance and durability.

Yes, objects can absorb water if they are porous or have spaces within their structure for water to seep into. Materials like sponge, cotton, and paper are examples of objects that can absorb water.
To effectively remove a stain from faux leather, start by gently blotting the stain with a clean cloth to absorb excess liquid. Then, mix a solution of mild soap and water and gently scrub the stained area with a soft-bristled brush or cloth. Rinse with clean water and pat dry.

Be sure to test any cleaning solution on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn't damage the faux leather.

Whilst it would indeed seem that upon getting wet, the water simply runs off the leather, if left in damp humid conditions the leather will go mouldy. It is not advisible to leave leather around too much water, just in case, so whilst the way it is treated means it doesn't absorb water easily, its better to be safe than sorry.
Yes, semi-aniline leather can absorb water, though it is more water-resistant than full-aniline leather due to its protective coating. This coating helps to repel moisture and stains while allowing some breathability. However, prolonged exposure to water can still damage the leather, so it's important to avoid excessive moisture and to use appropriate leather care products.
