Why a Fur Down Coat is a Winter Classic

A fur down coat is a winter classic and a must have in every woman’s wardrobe. Besides its perfectly warm properties, it also has a glamourous look due to its stunning XXL fur. We offer fur down jackets in the colours IceBlack, IceRed and IceWhite. The combination of glossy premium fabrics, 90% down filling and the glamourous XXL fur on the collar makes them absolute winter highlights.

Why are fur down coats better than regular ones?

Fur is an incredibly insulating material that has been around for centuries. It is very light and consists of small feathers that trap air and provide superior insulation. Compared to this, leather is much heavier and does not retain warmth as well. Fur down coats are also more ethically acceptable than leather ones because they use hides of animals that are raised and hunted for meat, whereas leather is usually made from the skins of cows, pigs or sheep which are raised and killed solely to produce food.

Does the fur (fake or not) at the hood of a winter coat serve any practical purpose?

It is an important thermal insulator because in the Arctic, perspiration freezes and will eventually cause hypothermia. To prevent this, a hood with fur is created, which keeps the cold air from coming into contact with your head. This is why the hoods of fur down coats are often created with long hair.
