Fur coats from China

Distributed in the past stereotype the fact that Chinese goods are of low, “consumer” quality is becoming less and less relevant every year. The vast majority of world famous brands have long had their own factories and factories in China, which is largely due to the cheapness of labor and, as a consequence, the entire production cycle as a whole. Wherein quality products leaving the conveyor are carefully checked and controlled.

The fashion industry was no exception. Fur coats from the Middle Kingdom are sold not only domestically - the vast majority of models are exported, including to Europe and North America. Thus, purchasing a fur coat in Italy, Turkey or Germany, you can easily get a thing made in China. Famous brands rely on products made in China, which is a guarantee of decent quality.

The most attractive feature of Chinese fur coats is, of course, their price. At the same time, an unprepared buyer may have doubts about the quality of this product, but you need to understand that about 80 percent of the fur coats offered by Greek or Italian brands were sewn at factories in China.

It is the factory production that determines the decent level of this category of goods. Experts identify several main factors, based on which the purchase of a Chinese-made fur coat has ceased to be a “pig in a poke” purchase:

• fur factories are actively developing on the territory of China;
• in the manufacture of fur coats in factories, high quality fur is used;
• thorough adherence to every technological nuance;
• constant quality control according to international standards;
• system of quality marks and confirming certificates.

With the development of modern infrastructure and the emergence of large fur factories, new Chinese players in this market have practically abandoned the cultivation and breeding of fur animals within the country, having switched to the practice of participating in world auctions and ordering raw materials from trusted suppliers from Canada. This, of course, could not but affect the final cost of fur coats, however, to this day, factory-made Chinese fur products are much more affordable than comparable quality products from Turkey, Greece or Italy.

Having abandoned, in fact, from the production of its own natural raw materials, China focused on synthetic fur.

The advantages of faux fur are obvious:

• several times lower (compared to natural material) price;
• in the production of "synthetics" they do not kill animals;
• the ability to imitate the fur of any animal;
• long service life;
• unpretentious storage;
• natural fur is much heavier than artificial.

By its structure, this material is a special fiber obtained from coal and hydrocarbons, as well as from limestone, and subjected to special processing and subsequent drying. Subsequently, it is placed on a woolen or cotton base, shortened to the desired length and dyed as necessary.

In the case of Chinese goods, there are four options for purchasing them: via the Internet, from Russian dealers, through intermediaries and directly in China. If we consider ordering a fur coat through the Internet, it is important to remember that not all photos of the goods presented on Chinese sites are 100% true. Again, there is no opportunity to inspect and try on a fur coat before buying.

The second option is to purchase a Chinese fur coat in multi-brand fur boutiques. At the same time, the difference in price is easy to understand by comparing the price tags on the manufacturer's website and directly in the store. The savings in this case will be slightly lower than when ordering through the website, but the client will be able to independently check the quality and appearance of the product. Some women of fashion resort to the services of intermediaries who are personally involved in the selection, purchase and delivery of fur coats from the Middle Kingdom. The overpayment in this case, as a rule, is much less than the store margin, but the experience and decency of such a “buyer” is of great importance.

The maximum savings can be achieved by going to the "fur-tour" in China on your own. However, taking into account transport costs and other inevitable expenses, such an extreme will be more justified if the purpose of such a trip is to buy several fur coats at once. This can be a kind of collective purchase, or the purchase of furs for further resale.

When ordering a fur coat on the site, experienced users are advised to thoroughly study the description of the product, information about its size and material from which it is made, as well as comments and customer reviews. Particular attention should be paid to negative comments and seller ratings (if any on the site). And of course, you need to use only popular and proven online platforms.

If you are going to China for a fur coat, remember - it is important not to lose sight of the selected product during payment and packaging, especially in small retail outlets. Unfortunately, it happens that sellers secretly replace a fur coat with a cheaper or lower quality one, sewn in clandestine workshops from dubious raw materials. Also, there were frequent cases when mink fur was indicated on the label of a fur coat, in fact it turned out to be a rabbit or a fox.Knowledgeable people advise not to hesitate to bargain on fur markets - as a rule, the declared price tag for a fur coat already includes 40, or even 50 percent, by which the seller is ready to "move".

Depending on how a fur coat from China gets to the buyer, its price tag also changes. The most budgetary option is to order on Chinese sites. Taking into account constant discounts, promotions and seasonal sales, the difference in price with fur coats from Europe reaches 50 or even 80 percent.

A fur coat made of natural mink fur can cost $ 600 or $ 1000 even without discounts, but exquisite floor-length models of raccoon and beaver are available from $ 400. Nutria models will be even cheaper. If we add to this all kinds of discounts - and even with the condition of the "biting" rate of this currency, the benefits will be obvious.

As with anything else, the Web is full of both positive and negative reviews of Chinese fur coats. Most of the dissatisfied note that the product they purchased did not match the "advertising picture" and quickly lost its attractive appearance. Such people admit that they bought a fur coat "blindly", flattered by the cheapness and popularity of a certain style and type of fur.

An example of contrasting mood reviews are the comments of the owners of fur coats, who approached the selection and order of goods more responsibly, were convinced of the availability of appropriate certificates and the reliability of both the seller and the manufacturer. Those who personally traveled to China and bought fur coats "on the spot" pay attention to the importance of choosing a consultant who is well versed in fur and speaks the language.
