Leather hardens through age and also lack of care. If the leather has not been used for a long time the fibres will dry out through lack of movement. Heat also causes leather to shrink. Originally most automotive leather was the processed vegetable tanned variety which hardens and shrinks at a temperature of about 70 °C (158°F). Today processed chrome-tanned hides are used which can withstand temperatures of around 90 °C (194°F). The less a leather is re-oiled through care, the lower the temperature at which it will start to shrink. Leather that is heavily damaged will never be restored to look and feel like brand new leather but their lifespan will be increased.
