Italian term

camoscina

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Textiles / Clothing / Fashion Shoes
This is one of a series of defects described in a sample show. The image shows the inside of the tongue of the shoe being pulled back but I can't see what they are talking about. Obviously we are not talking about the spray for cleaning suede in this case:

"La camoscina è staccata dal toppone e presenta delle «bolle d’aria» che non sono accettabili."

Thanks in advance!

I think the term camoscina is used improperly in your text, the part described is a tongue pad

I also foundling that camoscina is the spray used to revive the colour of suede shoes but it doesn't seem to fit your context.
