Fur coats from China

Common in the past stereotype The fact that Chinese goods are of low, “consumer demand” quality is becoming less relevant and true 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 cheap labor and - as a result - the entire production cycle as a whole. Wherein quality products coming out of the conveyor are thoroughly checked and monitored.

The fashion industry was no exception. Fur coats originally from the Middle Kingdom are sold not only domestically - the vast majority of models are exported, including to Europe and North America. Thus, acquiring a fur coat in Italy, Turkey or Germany, you can easily get a thing made in China. Eminent brands trust the product 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 in Chinese factories.

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

• fur factories are actively developing in China;
• in the manufacture of fur coats in factories, high quality fur is used;
• thorough adherence to each 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, the new Chinese players in this market virtually abandoned growing and breeding fur-bearing animals within the country, switching to the practice of participating in global auctions and ordering raw materials from proven suppliers from Canada. This, of course, could not but affect the final cost of the coats, however, to this day, factory-made Chinese fur products are much more affordable than products of comparable quality from Turkey, Greece or Italy.

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

The advantages of faux fur are obvious:

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

By its structure, this material is a special fiber obtained from coal and hydrocarbon raw materials, as well as from limestone, and subjected to special treatment and subsequent drying. Later it is placed on a woolen or cotton base, shortened to the desired length and colored as necessary.

In the case of Chinese goods, there are four options for acquiring them: via the Internet, from Russian dealers, through intermediaries and directly in China.If you look at the order of a fur coat via the Network, it is important to remember that not all product photos presented on Chinese websites 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. The difference in price is easy to understand when comparing price tags on the manufacturer’s website and directly in the store. Savings in this case will be slightly lower than when ordering through the site, but the customer 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, acquisition and delivery of fur coats from the Middle Kingdom. Overpayment in this case, as a rule, is much less than the store mark-up, however the experience and decency of such a "buyer" is of great importance.

Maximum savings can be achieved by going to the "fur coat" in China on their own. However, taking into account transport costs and other inevitable expenses, such an extreme would be more justified if the purpose of such a trip would be to buy several fur coats at once. This can be both a kind of collective purchase, and the purchase of furs for resale.

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

If you go to China for a fur coat, remember - it is important not to let the selected product out of sight during payment and packaging, especially in small outlets. Unfortunately, it happens that the sellers secretly replace the fur coat with a cheaper or lower quality sewn in underground workshops of dubious raw materials. There were also cases when the mink fur was indicated on the label of the fur coat, which turned out to be a rabbit or a fox. Knowledgeable people advise not to be shy to bargain in the fur markets - as a rule, 40 or even 50 percent have already been included in the declared price tag for a fur coat, for which the seller is ready to "move over."

Depending on how the fur coat from China gets to the buyer, its price tag also changes. The most budget option - order on Chinese sites. Given the 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 even without discounts can cost as much as $ 600 and $ 1,000, but exquisite “floor” models of raccoon and beaver are available from $ 400. Models from nutria will be even cheaper. If you add to this all sorts of discounts - and even with the condition of the "biting" rate of this currency, the benefit will be obvious.

As in any other case, the Network is full of both positive and negative reviews about Chinese fur coats. Most of the disgruntled say that the product they purchased did not correspond to the “advertising picture” and rather quickly lost its attractive appearance. Such people admit that they bought a fur coat "blindly", being tempted 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 more responsibly approached the selection and order of goods, were convinced of the availability of appropriate certificates and 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.
