Dobro pitanje za suede-nubuck. Nažalost, ne vidim rješenja osim "površinski ulaštena brušena koža/ulaštena na površini" tj.
" ... s donje/spodnje strane". Možda bi znao netko tko radi u kožarskoj industriji? Nubuck se zaista rijetko spominje... Sretno!

Notes to answerer
Asker: ok.. a koja je odna razlika između suede i nubuck Nubuck - Leather that is buffed on the grain (hair) side of the grain to produce a velvety fine nap. Suede - The flesh side (underside) of the leather is buffed to produce a nap. obje su vrsta brušene kože...


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  mirnaana: Grindig or buffing is a type of finish for Roughout leathers; with Veloours leathers, the flesh side is grinded, with Nubuk the grain side. Nubuk-very fine but firm calf or cowhide leather, reminds of velours leather, is however finer and not as grainy.

semiš


Explanation:
Može biti i jelenja koža i brušena koža ali možda bi bio i semiš.
Prema onoj pjesmi - "my blue suede shoes".
Koliko znam - to su plave cipele od semiša.

disagree  Ivana Kahle: Zvuči simpatično, ali kao iz nekih davnih vremena. Tko danas kaže semiš? Nadglasali ste me ... i u pravu ste. Sad je pravo pitanje je li bolje reći antilop ili semiš.

  -> Hmmm, ali to mi ne zvuči kao neki argument!
neutral  Dubravka Hrastovec: Izgleda da ste u pravu (premda bih se na prvu loptu složila s Ivanom!): semiš-koža u hrv. Nomenklaturi ind. proizvoda http://www.dzs.hr/hrv/important/Nomen/nip2005/NIP2005.pdf (str. 68.)

  -> Semiš je način obrade kože. I ja se slažem sa Ivanom, da se riječ "semiš" rijetko čuje ali to samo po sebi ne znači, da je prijevod slab ili netočan. Zato sam rekao, da mi Ivanin komentar ne zvuči kao neki argument.
agree  Veronica Prpic Uhing: radi se o načinu obrade kože a jelen i antilopa su životinje http://www.kotos.hr/gotova.php i http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/suede
