Our winters are very cold, which is why mouton coats are so popular among Russian women . This fur is produced only in Russia by a special technology, because it is most suitable for our climate. Any woman with pleasure in winter will put on a warm light coat. The most common fur for the production of modern fur coats is a muton. What it is?
What is a muton
A few decades ago it was called a tsigeyka, but in recent years the same fur is called the French word "muton", which means "ram". Sheepskin brought from Australia is now used for its production. Valuable breeds of sheep are raised there.
Only in our country there is a special technology for processing sheepskin. For many hundreds of years, our ancestors wore sheepskin coats and sheepskin short fur coats. It is this fur that heats best in extreme cold, protects against wind and moisture. But only in the twentieth century did they learn to process fur so that it was not only warm, but also soft, light and beautiful. Now even among young girls and fashion designers, a muton is popular. What it is?
How to make a muton
To make this fur, the sheepskin is first sheared so that the hairs are no more than a centimeter in length. This makes the muton soft and tender to the touch. After that, the fur is treated with formalin. This technology exists only in Russia, because this substance is prohibited throughout the world. But this treatment gives the fur special properties. It is because of them that the muton is famous. What is it that interests many women.
After formalin treatment, each hair of the fur is preserved and
becomes resistant to moisture and friction. Mouton fur coats are considered the most durable. They do not care wet snow and strong winds. With proper care, such clothes can be worn for up to 10 years. In this they win against all other furs.
The last step in making a muton is coloring. Most often, they take persistent dyes of natural colors, sometimes they mask a muton under the fox or mink fur. The softness and luster of his fur makes such fur coats very beautiful and indistinguishable from expensive ones. After all, the cost of a muton is much lower than that of other furs, and it is available to everyone. Russian manufacturers produce many options for men, women and children’s clothing for every taste and wealth.
Where to buy and how to choose a fur coat from Mouton
If you are wondering where to buy a mouton, pay attention only to well-known stores, because you can buy a fake on the market. Pyatigorskaya is considered the best factory for the production of this fur, so look for the products of this manufacturer. When choosing a fur coat for the winter, many women recall that the best fur for our climate is the muton. How to choose it? You can give some advice.
1. To check the quality of the fur, pinch it a little, walk your hand against the growth of the coat. Hair should not break and come out. If you squeeze the fur in the palm of your hand, then a high-quality muton will not stick together and will quickly take its original form.
2. To check the quality of coloring, sweep the fur with a light shawl. There should not be any marks on it.
3. The quality of the seams is very important. They should be felt - this shows that the fur coat is sewn, not glued. At the same time, too convex seams will interfere with you.
4. Lining and insulation should also be of high quality. Often, to ease the product, put less insulation, such a coat will be worse to warm you in the cold.
5. Be sure to check the labels and labels. If you want to buy a fur coat from a well-known manufacturer, ask the seller for a certificate and do not forget to take a warranty card.
