There has been many times where we have seen men walking down the runway of high fashion designers with a big, heavy, and beautiful fur coat on their shoulders. Let us rewind to the ice age and its humble cavemen.

Fur was used for the sole purpose of survival and not a fashion statement like it is today. It was used for lack of the invention of heaters and to survive the cold and harsh times. Now let us fast forward back to the royal family of England. They use fur coats as a sign of wealth, royalty and prestige. For example, the white winter coat of the Stoat is only used and worn by British Royalty even today. Fur slowly became a sign of wealth, a sign of class and specifically a sign of the upper class. Only the most elite Hollywood stars would wear fur. We have photographs of the timeless leading men and musical stars rocking the fur coat on their shoulders. With fur being made out of actual animals, over the years dwindling resources and public opinion has made acquiring real fur coats as expensive as buying a car.



Faux fake fur is slowly and surely replacing the fur trend, with it being a more conscious and affordable choice. Styling the faux fur coat has never been easier. First off, finding a good pair of Men’s dress slacks to go with a faux fur jacket is vital. Remember to only allow one item to have fur, either it be an accent or a jacket in its entirety. The Faux fur coat may be used for several different occasions, and can be dressed up or down. Wearing your best 2 Button suit without the blazer and throw on the Faux Fur Coat and you’re ready to go to a gala, wedding, or any fancy event that you have been invited to. Another way to dress your faux fur coat is to urbanize it. Throw it on top of a sleeveless shirt, distressed jeans and a combat, or exotic shoe with a good leather cowboy belt and you are good to go.
