It can be a muton, mink fur, astrakhan fur, arctic fox, fox, raccoon. For less wear-resistant, but more affordable for the price, include mittens made of rabbit fur.

Colour
The color scale in which fur mittens are presented is usually quite restrained and limited. This concerns, first of all, products made of natural fur. Red, black, with a silver tint, brown and snow-white mittens, thanks to its natural color, look great with different options for outerwear.
If mittens are sewn or knitted with the use of artificial fur, then there are practically no restrictions on the choice of color. These can be colors close to natural or, on the contrary, bright and contrasting: blue, emerald, lingonberry, pale pink, red, lilac, green, orange, etc. Typically, these mittens are chosen to match the outerwear or in a set for a hat and scarf.
Mittens can be combined from fur of different colors, for example, white and black or white and red. Fabrics of different colors, beads, rhinestones, tassels, fringe, metal decor, etc. can be used as jewelry of mittens.
Mittens can be not only monophonic, but also printed. This is especially true for the combined models of leather, suede or wool. Fur in these models acts as a decorative element or a fluffy edge. And any print is chosen as a print - from classic snowflakes to flowers, abstraction and oriental ornaments.
How to choose?
To choose a truly high-quality, warm and cozy mittens, you need to pay attention to a few points:
- The most wear-resistant mittens are sewn from a muton, mink or astrakhan fur. They permanently retain their original appearance, do not wipe, do not fade.
- If you want to buy a truly exclusive and expensive thing, it is best to opt for mittens made of sable, silver fox or lynx. They serve less than mink or astrakhan mittens, but look simply luxurious.
- Inexpensive, but warm and cute option - rabbit fur mittens. Rabbit mittens are very warm, soft, tender and pleasant to the touch. It is no coincidence that rabbit fur is often used for sewing children's clothes.
- When buying, be sure to check the wrong side of the mittens. If they are not sewn from solid leather, but from pieces of fur, they will serve less. The seams should be well finished, even and clear. Threads should not stick out, the fur should be uniform and even over the entire surface. Fur hair should not climb.
- The lining of the mittens should be made of natural material, such as cotton, wool or silk. Natural materials have excellent air and water permeability, which means that the hands will be warm and comfortable.
- And, of course, mittens should be matched in size. Too tight or too loose will warm your hands very badly.
