Frequently asked questions
- Is fox or raccoon warmer?
- Medium-high vs High is the honest comparison above. Coyote holds warmth best in wind; fox and raccoon trade some warmth for softness and volume.
- Can I move a trim between the two?
- Only if the fastening matches. A zip trim does not seat on button loops and a button trim does not seat on a slider. Measure the rim and count the loops or photograph the slider.
- Which is cheaper?
- Faux is 67-87 EUR, natural fur starts at 166 EUR and runs to 237 EUR depending on species and length. Length changes the price more than the brand does.
