Sheepskin coat from goat
Sheepskin coat is a very common and democratic type of clothing that is very popular. Inexpensive and comfortable, sheepskin coats have firmly taken their place in the wardrobes of both men and women. One of the options is a goat sheepskin coat.
Peculiarities
Factory goat sheepskin coats are light, soft and beautiful products, which, however, are off-season. The fact is that goats do not have an undercoat, and their wool itself is not dense, therefore, products made from goats do not withstand frost well.
With a slight density, the main feature of goat fur is that it can be either short, downy or of a very decent length - this is often used to trim collars and hoods.
Models
Indeed, most often you can find sheepskin coats, inside of which there is some other fur, for example, sheepskin, but the collar is decorated with beautiful, long, slightly curly goat fur.
Modern technologies allow you to cut it, tint and dye it in different shades, which gives originality and zest to sheepskin coats with goat fur.
But demi-season, shortened models can be completely on goat fur. The skins of these animals are not too expensive, which makes such sheepskin coats affordable. The advantage of goat skins is that they are very durable, resistant to abrasion, cuts or other damage, which allows them to be worn for more than one season.
For the same reason, children's models of goat sheepskin coats are popular - even an active child is unlikely to spoil the product.
Products made of mountain goat fur stand apart. Unlike its “terrestrial” relatives, the ibex lives in places with a difficult, cold climate, and its skin is adapted to fight against frost, snow and wind. Therefore, sheepskin coats made of such fur are able to warm their owner even in a strong minus.
There are several models of mountain goat sheepskin coats - this fur also lends itself well to shearing.
More frivolous, original models have long fur, which not only warms up from the inside, but is also clearly visible from the outside - the pile sticks out from the collar, hem and sleeves, creating a casual but very stylish look.
Sheepskin coats from sheared mountain goat fur can be of absolutely any style - from short autolady to floor-length options.
A goat sheepskin coat will be especially good for young ladies or men who spend a lot of time on the road - behind the wheel or as a passenger. Since both the fur and the skin of the goat are not prone to wiping, the product will last a long time.
How to choose?
First of all, you need to pay attention to the front side of the sheepskin coat. The flesh of a goat's fur coat is very dense, strong and durable, and if you run your finger over it, you will certainly leave a clear trace "against the grain". If this does not happen, the skin is poorly dressed.
Another important point is the smooth and uniform structure of the leather, the sheepskin coat should not have dents or greasy spots, scratches, traces of paint or, worse, glue. If the model does not suggest this, the pile should not stick out from under the product.
Pay attention to the seams - they should be soft, thin, in no case "hardened" or too rough. A good quality sheepskin coat has straight seams, without gaps and wrinkles. On the reverse side, no fur should enter the seam.
It is worth smelling the product - it should not smell of both chemistry and "natural odors". In nature, a goat has a rather pungent odor, but with proper dressing, it should completely disappear.
When choosing a sheepskin coat, it is worth picking it up and shaking it vigorously. The product should be elastic and flexible, not make noise or rattle - the first sign of an old sheepskin coat that has already dried up.
The wool itself needs to be pulled without hesitation. Fur will surely come out of a poor quality sheepskin coat, but if the skins were stored and dressed according to all the rules, such a nuisance will not happen.
