A leather pressed logo mockup, made for presenting a new logo. Drop in your artwork and the lighting and shadows stay as they are. The leather finish gives the preview a tactile look that flat artwork doesn’t have.
Useful for freelancers on Behance as much as for logo designers. A small tip: use a vector or high-resolution PNG version of the logo; this is the one mockup where every edge is looked at closely.
A logo on its own is hard to judge; seeing it pressed, printed or lit on a real surface tells the client far more. If you’re building a full identity, pair it with an envelope or letterhead mockup for a matching set.
Good for
- A new logo
- A signage concept
- A brand mark reveal

Editable options in the Leather Pressed Logo Mockup PSD
The PSD is layered, so you can change:
- Your design, placed through the smart object
- Shadows and highlights on their own layers
- Front and back artwork, where both sides are shown
Editing the Leather Pressed Logo Mockup, step by step
- Get your artwork ready at print size, with 3 mm of bleed if it runs to the edge.
- In the Layers panel, find the layer with the small smart object icon and double-click it.
- Drop your artwork in, fit it to the canvas, save and close. The mockup updates by itself.
- Turn the texture layer up or down to match the paper you’ll print on.
- Save a JPG for clients and social media, and keep the PSD for later changes.
Another tip: use CMYK-friendly colours in the artwork itself, even though the mockup is RGB, so what the client sees is close to print.

Questions about this mockup
Is it free for commercial use?
That depends on the author's terms. The download page lists what is allowed; when in doubt, ask the author directly.
How do I put my artwork on the logo?
Find the smart object layer (it has a small icon on its thumbnail), double-click it, place your design, then save and close that tab.
Do I need Photoshop?
Yes. This is a PSD mockup built with smart objects, so you edit it in Adobe Photoshop. Any recent CC version works.
Does the effect work with any logo?
Effects like foil, emboss or 3D are applied through layer styles, so any logo placed in the smart object gets them. Thin lines and tiny text may lose detail, so test a simplified version too.
