The character 革 (gé) primarily means "leather" or "hide" in Chinese. However, in modern usage, it is not commonly used on its own to refer to leather items, like shoes or bags. Instead, when discussing leather in a more practical context, people often use the word 皮 (pí) or 皮革 (pígé) which also mean "leather".

革 (gé) is typically used in formal settings. This is because it is a noun that refers to leather, which is a material used in more formal settings such as clothing, furniture, and accessories. In contrast, the word 皮 (pí) is more commonly used in casual settings, as it refers to leather in a more general sense.
