Fur coats from China

Common in the past stereotype that Chinese products are of low, “consumer-friendly” quality, every year it becomes less and less relevant and relevant to reality. The vast majority of world-famous brands have long had their own factories in China, which is largely due to the cheapness of the workforce and, as a consequence, the entire production cycle as a whole. Wherein quality products coming out of the conveyor are thoroughly checked and controlled.

The fashion industry was no exception. Fur coats originally from the Middle Kingdom are sold far not only domestically - the vast majority of models are exported, including to Europe and North America. Thus, buying a fur coat in Italy, Turkey or Germany, you can easily get a thing made in China. Famous brands trust the 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 doubt the quality of this product, however, it must be understood that about 80 percent of the fur coats offered by Greek or Italian brands were sewn in Chinese factories.

Factory production determines a decent level of this category of goods. Experts identify several main factors, based on which the purchase of a fur coat made in China is no longer a purchase of a "pig in a poke":

• fur factories are actively developing in 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 coat factories, new Chinese players in this market have practically abandoned the cultivation and breeding of fur animals in 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 the fur coats, however, to this day, factory-made Chinese fur products are much more affordable than comparable products in quality from Turkey, Greece or Italy.

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

The advantages of faux fur are obvious:

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

In its structure, this material is a special fiber obtained from coal and hydrocarbon raw materials, 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 their purchase: via the Internet, from Russian dealers, through intermediaries and directly in China. If you consider ordering a fur coat via the Network, it is important to remember that not all product photos presented on Chinese sites are completely true. Again, there is no way to inspect and try on a fur coat before buying.

The second option is the acquisition of a Chinese fur coat in multi-brand fur boutiques. 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 site, however, the client will be able to independently check the quality and appearance of the product. Some fashionistas resort to the services of intermediaries who are personally involved in the selection, purchase and delivery of fur coats from the Middle Kingdom. 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 coat" to China on their own. However, taking into account transportation costs and other unavoidable expenses, such an extreme will be more justified if the purpose of such a trip is to purchase several fur coats at once. This can be a kind of collective purchase, as well as 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 the 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). 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 retail outlets. Unfortunately, it happens that sellers secretly replace a fur coat with a cheaper or less quality one, sewn in clandestine shops from dubious raw materials. Also, there were cases when mink fur was indicated on the fur coat label, which turned out to be a rabbit or a fox. Knowledgeable people advise not to be shy about bargaining in fur markets - as a rule, 40 or even 50 percent are already included in the declared price tag for a fur coat, for which the seller is ready to "move".

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

A fur coat made of natural mink fur, even without discounts, can cost both $ 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 all kinds of discounts to this - and even with the condition of a “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 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 the coat “blindly”, flattered by the cheapness and popularity of a certain style and type of fur.

An example of contrasting mood reviews is the comments of fur coats owners, who more responsibly approached the selection and ordering of goods, 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.
