Fur "under the mink"

Mink coat in the closet is the main evidence of the material viability of a modern woman. It is its decoration, its status, its main “heater” in severe frosts. But what to do if there is still not enough money for a real mink, and you want to look rich in spite of everything? To acquire a fur coat from faux fur "under the mink". Externally, it is not much different from a fur coat made of natural mink skin, but it is ten times cheaper, and does not require special care.

In the process of producing fur coats from non-natural fur “under the mink”, synthetic fibers consisting of acrylic polymers, hydrocarbon components, limestone, coal, and petroleum products are used as the basis. But in order to give a synthetic canvas a more natural look, it is additionally enriched with natural fibers. Usually, as a supplement is viscose, so the finished product becomes characteristic of natural mink shine, softness and elasticity. Thermal qualities of such "fur" products are much inferior to natural ones, but with high-quality tailoring they warm quite well.

In addition to the relatively low cost, “artificial mink” also has a number of advantages. It is more durable and practical, can not be susceptible to attacks of pests and does not wear out as fast as a natural fur coat.

And the most important advantage of fur coats from artificial fur is that for their production it is not necessary to kill animals. Now the importance of nature conservation is being repeated almost at every corner, and by acquiring such a fur coat you cannot blame yourself for cruelty. And according to the external characteristics of an artificial product is very difficult to distinguish from the natural. Unscrupulous manufacturers often use this, but if you really want to buy a fur coat made of artificial fur there is nothing to be afraid of.

It is also important not to forget that the quality of faux fur can also be different. In order for your “mink” to serve you faithfully for many years in the buying process, pay attention to the following characteristics:

1. The fur should be uniform, smooth and perfectly soft to the touch. It is better if it is tightly attached to the fabric basis.
2. Glitter fur should be as natural as possible. Uniform play and reflections in daylight - the best indicator.
3. The smell of paint from the product should not proceed. The quality of the paint can be checked by wetting several villi in water. If there are no traces on the hand, then the product is of high quality.

But the types of fur coats made of artificial fur is very much. There are models of fur coats, which are issued for natural mink, and there are those that, according to practical characteristics, only slightly resemble a naturalka.

Eco-fur is an artificial material that is as close to natural as possible with the help of innovative technologies. It has the same softness, brilliance and texture, but most importantly, it is not inferior to natural fur in thermal characteristics and water-repellent properties.Fur coats from such fur are somewhat more expensive than other artificial counterparts, but the cost fully justifies the quality.

Faux fur coats are inferior to natural in thermal properties, but with good imitation they are difficult to distinguish from the original. Such coats are often supplemented with linings on the fleece to compensate for the lack of thermal properties, so that during the cold season you can feel very comfortable in them.

These coats are often issued for natural, which is displayed in an unreasonably high cost. Distinguish a fake from the original can only be carefully looked at the product. Artificial furs are usually attached to the fabric base, and to hide it, the manufacturer sews up the hem of the product. So if you can not look inside the product, give up the purchase.

Under the guise of chic mink furs, the usual rabbit skin often hides. It produces such a fake more rare pile without a pad and light-colored skin under the fur. If you blow on the product, and under the painted villi you will find a light skin, refuse to buy.

This season is especially fashionable coats of medium length with a hood. They are necessarily complemented by a belt and often brilliant elements of fittings. The sleeves of fur coats are usually long, although there are exceptions.

Especially stylish are the models of fur coats that combine several shades at once: black and gray, white and black, brown with burgundy - the most trendy combinations.
