To my amazement, they exist:

Does anyone have any experience with these tiles? Do they look or feel at all like leather? Do they wear well? Do they damage easily?

Thanks!! :D

I admit, I've never seen these before, either...but, I've owned lots of leather shoes, and I bet you have, too! How do those look after a few years? Scuffed and gouged, color worn off? I think I'd wait awhile before spending a thousand on those tiles.
Try Googling for consumer reports.

I agree, cant imagine leather will hold up over time. My dog would make a mess of them in a day I think. Hey Connie maybe some shoe polish will help keep it looking good.

Question for Connie - Will those Tavy tile spacers work with leather tiles also?:D

I think all you guys are in cahoots! I think I'm going out to buy stock in those Tavy spacers...maybe I'll make a bundle like Armand!
