The German company Christ was founded in Germany by a young entrepreneur in 1954, and today it is known throughout the world as one of the best manufacturers of sheepskin coats. Initially, the company produced leather jackets and coats, but due to the high competition, it was decided to sew fur products, including sheepskin.
Outerwear quickly gained popularity, and brought the company to a new level. Today Krist coats are known all over the world as one of the most high-quality and durable things.
Features
Starting the production of fur clothing at the factory of Christ, first of all, emphasis was placed on its quality, therefore, only high-quality sheepskin is used, and the manufacture of skins is done manually. Thus, the material retains softness and elasticity, which allows you to sew coats with non-standard cut.
The main feature of German products Krist is its lightness, because even long products weigh about 1.5 kg. Despite the small weight, outerwear has excellent heat-saving properties, so it is warm in it even during strong frosts.
The company Christ has developed a unique water repellent, which is impregnated with sheepskin, to provide her reliable protection against moisture. It is based on natural ingredients that in no way harm things, and also preserves the function of air exchange. Due to the protective coating of the products, sleet and rain are not terrible, water droplets simply roll off the surface.
Styles and models
Krist Factory offers consumers a wide range of sheepskin coats, which differ in style, length and color.

- Trench - outerwear of this style is similar to the coat of the same name.
