Yes!!! It does hold up, there's no hair! However, the chairs don't slide as well as if they were on felt pads. I have conditioned them with a leather balm, which helps them slide.

What a great idea! As I was watching this, I thought "where am I going to get pieces of leather?" Your suggestion to use an old belt is so smart. I never would have thought of it. I made these for my kitchen chairs and they turned out great. I'm now going to make them as pads for all my furniture. :)

Do the leather ones glide smoothly? I hate how the felt ones start sticking and scraping after only a few weeks.

This is brilliant, thank you! I think I'll wrap a thin slippery fabric around the leather before attaching to the bottom of the legs. Should still avoid the hair trap, while giving a bit more slide function. Thanks for testing this out and sharing.

@@VanessaCreates It is showing scratches on the floor. We have old Bruce prefinished wood floors in our dinning room. The chairs get move in and out a lot. I expect a little grit gets stuck in the leather and causes the scratching. For furniture that is not moved much I think this strategy would be better.

I am sooo excited to find your KZitem hack for replacing hairy felt pads with leather pads made from a belt! I have a black German Shepherd which is said to be the most shedding dog there is and a beautiful short hair black cat. Combine that with white beach vinyl floors and I am constantly vacuuming, running the Roomba, and mopping! I always have to pick the lint of my dining room chairs and any furniture that moves and it’s a revolving door to clean. Anything to make this easier is so appreciated. Tell me what kind of leather wax did you use? And what side of the belt touches the floor?
