Abstract
Research has been carried out to investigate the measurement of bagginess o r the retained set of leather. The method is based on the principles of the lastometer test allowing multi-directional set to be evaluated, which is t hought to be more closely related to the behaviour of leather in wear than a measure of linear set.
