"As tough as leather" = cứng như da -> nghĩa là có sức mạnh, vững chắc về thân thể, ý chí, không dễ bị bệnh hay tổn thương.

Ví dụ
The SR4 riding jeans from Bull-it are available in different styles, and in both men’s and women’s cuts. The denim (vải bông chéo) material isn’t quite as tough as leather, but Bull-it claims its jeans offer an abrasion resistance (chống trầy) at about 89.6% that of cowhide. The jeans accept knee and hip CE-approved armor (sold separately) and are treated with a water repellent (chống nước) silicone finish.

There’s probably not much O’Keefe has’t seen or heard. His 41-year coaching career includes stops at every level. His skin is as tough as leather after dealing with everyone from high school parents to fans in the stands to media mopes like myself who have roasted (chế nhạo) him in columns.

Poorly made gizzards (mề chim) can be as tough as leather, but these are treated with respect, so the texture (kết cấu) is pleasantly chewy without becoming a workout.
