Mink mittens

Winters and frosts in our country are often very cold. Temperatures can often drop to very low values. And it often turns out that the selection of the appropriate outerwear does not correct the situation, because many forget about the selection of warm accessories: mittens or gloves and hats. Mink mittens are an excellent solution against low temperatures, extreme cold and bad weather conditions.

This original accessory will not only help keep delicate women's hands warm, but will also be an incredibly stylish addition to any look, thanks to the shiny and natural fur.

• Mink is an excellent fur that resists wear and tear and physical damage well. If you buy such fur mittens, then you can permanently close the issue of protecting your hands from frost and low temperatures in the winter season.

• The price of such an accessory will be high, but given its durability, the cost justifies itself. According to experts, with proper care, this item of clothing can serve the wearer even for several decades.
• Mink fur is also lightweight and flexible. Therefore, it is very simple to wear such mittens and it does not cause any discomfort, in contrast to products with a more rigid type of fur.

• Another advantage of mink mittens is that they look great with any outerwear. They look beautiful and will be a great addition to any outfit. And if you add some fur accessories, then any girl will look really impressive and beautiful.

The advantages of this accessory:

• excellent wear resistance;
• durability;
• lightness and practicality;
• good compatibility with any clothing.

If we talk about the types of this item of clothing, then there are two categories that differ in manufacturing technology:

• gloves made of solid mink;
• knitted mink mittens.

Let's say more about each group.

Models made of solid mink skins are voluminous and do not fit the hand very well, because in this case it is the whole mink skins that are used, and not what remains from the production of fur coats. Such products will be significantly more expensive. But they have an important advantage - they are much warmer than knitted counterparts.

If the girl has to be in a cold climate, then it is better to purchase such gloves. They are made not only in factories, but also by lone specialists. Typically, their color scheme is presented either in the natural color of the mink, or tinted in a darker or lighter color.

The second category is knitted mink patterns. They are made from yarn, most often acrylic or woolen, onto which simply pieces of mink or strips of fur are sewn. And only then the manufacture of the product itself begins.

Its advantage is that it fits snugly on the brush, following its contours as much as possible. It will be even more elastic and thin, which gives the hand good freedom of movement. And outwardly, such mittens look beautiful. Another plus is that in this case there can be significantly more color solutions, and you can choose an option for almost any outfit.

Recently, another type of knitted mittens has appeared - mitts. These are fingerless gloves that provide freedom of action. At the same time, the palm and hand remain covered, which allows you to keep most of the hand warm.

When buying women's fur mittens, you should be careful, because it is very easy to buy low-quality goods today. It is necessary to pay attention to all the features of sewing, or rather - an accessory is made from a whole mink skin or sewn from fur pieces.

As already mentioned, those sewn from scraps are not so durable and keep warm worse. The reason for this is simple - they are made of mink fur, which has bald patches and scuffs.

Look at the quality of the seams - they should be even, strong and no threads sticking out of them. Take a look at the lining and the material it is made from. It is desirable that it was natural - cotton, silk or wool. This will be especially important for girls with extremely sensitive skin. Natural materials simply won't cause irritation or allergic reactions.

If you decide to make your own mink mittens, you need special equipment. It is important to remember that this business takes practice and experience. If you are a beginner, it is better to contact an atelier, where experienced craftsmen already know how to work with such things and can do them quickly and efficiently. Otherwise, you only risk spoiling the precious fur.

Last but not least, pay attention to the fur. The fact is that counterfeits are now very common. Often people try to pass off marmot or rabbit fur as natural mink. In the case of the marmot, everything is simple - you just need to slide the mitt against the hair growth. If the fur quickly returns to the opposite position, then you can be sure that it is a mink.

In the case of the rabbit, things are a little more complicated. Both types of fur have a soft and fluffy pile. But you can still find differences, because mink fur is denser, and rabbit fur is rare and does not have a down. And one more sign - if the fur was dyed, then there is a high probability that it is a rabbit.

Sometimes, honorika fur is also tried to be passed off as mink fur. This animal is a hybrid of a ferret and a European mink, but their fur is different and it is also possible to tell the difference. Color will play an important role here. In mink, the color is uniform and does not change, while in honorik it is generally darker and can change.

And one more danger that may lie in wait for the buyer - the fur may turn out to be artificial. In order not to be deceived, you should inspect the mittens from the inside out - fake fur is always attached to a fabric base.If you see something like this, then we can say that the mink in front of you is most likely artificial. Whether to buy such a product or not is up to you.

Now let's summarize a little how to choose long mittens or any other from the mink:

• The fur of this animal will be thick;
• Touch the mittens and trust your feelings. If you feel soft and you can see that the fur returns to its original position after fluffing, then before you are natural mink mittens;

• Look for places where there is no fur or it is very rare - this will help you understand how high-quality the accessory is;
• See if there are spots of different color - some manufacturers want to pass off a fake for the original, painting it in a color traditional for mink;
• Mink mittens should shine a little.

And be sure to ask the seller for documents on the product, where the basic information about the product you bought will be exactly indicated.

Mink gloves will look great with a headdress that matches the tone.

They will be a great addition to a natural fur coat. But they will go well with a sheepskin coat, especially if it is decorated with fur.

You can wear a classic coat with such mittens. But in this case, it would be correct to have some fur accessories present. For example, a scarf with fur pom-poms.

It is interesting that such an expensive accessory will fit into the usual urban style. That is, they can also be worn with a jacket and down jacket. This combination will look bold and stylish at the same time. Mink mittens are great for a date or a casual walk.
