How to choose a mink coat

If at last you or your young man is ripe for buying a mink coat for you, it will be useful for you to read the tips on how to choose a quality mink coat, and how to distinguish a good and high-quality product from fakes and simply consumer goods. After all, the cost of such a gift is rather big, and it will be very disappointing if instead of the long-awaited mink you get a rabbit fur coat.

A mink coat is not a purchase where you can only be guided by your heart and instincts. The decision to buy a fur coat that you liked in a shop window can sometimes be very risky, because there is always a risk of falling for the bait of unscrupulous sellers. And the company store is not always an indicator

Therefore, it is important to know the main differences between mink coats and all kinds of analogues that are trying to sell you.

So, how to choose the right mink coat

Before you give your hard-earned money for a mink coat, carefully inspect the coat inside and out, pay attention to the trim, accessories, and fur fabric.

How to distinguish mink coats? Indeed, in return, very often they try to slip a painted rabbit or a fur coat from a marmot. To do this, you need to know how the mink feels to the touch. Rabbit fur, for example, is very soft, while groundhog fur is spiky, and the pile has different lengths. Mink fur is more rigid, all in one length, elastic, elastic, silky, without bald patches, shines and shimmers in the sun. Clutched, rolled fur with a touch of "fatness" indicates poor quality of the product.

Stroke the fur - it should immediately return to its original position. Pinch the pile with your hand. No villi should remain in your hands, otherwise this means that either the mink coat is poorly dressed, or the skins were taken from animals killed during molting. The fur coat will "climb" further.

The fact that the fur coat was stored incorrectly is also indicated by dull, painful-looking fur or the presence of crumpled areas. Such a fur coat will not become your companion for many years.

And if the surface of the fur is uneven, as if trimmed with blunt scissors by inept craftsmen, do not believe the seller who says that this is a twilight effect this season. Most likely, the animal bit its fur during its lifetime. Such a skin is considered defective!

If you want to buy a dyed coat, check the durability of the flowers. Take a white, slightly wet handkerchief and squeeze the product. If spots appear on the scarf, then the fur coat will shed further, and all your things will suffer the same sad fate.

Try to toss the selected instance. High-quality, solid mink coat is quite light!

If you like a mink coat with a hood or a belt, look at them too.

Now we turn to the study of the product inside, including the lining and the wrong side of the dressed skin. Usually, the lining is not sewn on. Only when the manufacturer wants to hide defects or poor quality of the goods, he sews the lining to the fur coat itself. It's okay if you ask to rip off the edge of the lining. The mezdra (wrong side of the skin) should be soft, elastic, in no case should it creak. Check the seams, how well they are made, if the threads are not climbing. If there are no seams, then you are offered a glued fur coat. Some Chinese mink coats can boast of this. This product is not worth buying!

In any case, we advise you not to buy mink coats in the markets. All the same, the guarantees provided by the fur salon are worth paying a couple of percent more for the product. And tomorrow you may not find sellers from the market in the usual place.
