Full grain leather is the highest quality leather that you can get and is made from a single piece of cowhide that has not been sanded or split. However polyurethane leather, also called "bicast" leather is made from low grade leather split leather, up to 4 pieces of low grade leather may be split from one single cow hide. It is often much thinner and less durable than real leather because it is has been split and then coated with polyurethane(plastic) on top and often stamped with a leather-like grain. True leather will last a lot longer than bicast leather. Real leather will become softer and develope a patina over time whereas the polyurethane coating on bicast leather may split or peel after just a few years.
