Je possède un blouson _______ cuir

In the grammar lesson, it explains that you can use either "en" or "de" in "un sac .... cuir". So to avoid confusion,  would it not be better to show that both "en" and "de" are also both acceptable answers in "Je possède un blouson _____ cuir". Or are they?

This question relates to:French lesson "Compound nouns formed with prepositions à/de/en in French"

Hi William,

I would say that ‘en cuir’ would be the correct answer for a garment made of leather.

Une jupe, un pantalon, une veste en cuir

Hope this helps!
