Fur Fan Man Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 I'm seeing so many racoon fur hoods in London (which is amazing!) and wondering where everyone is buying them from? They seem so popular that they must be easily attainable. I can't imagine they are all going out their way to find these coats but I struggle to find many sites selling them (apart from eBay etc) let alone shops. I didn't think my internet searching skills were that bad! I'd love to take a look at them for my wife. I'm otherwise considering ordering a fur hood trim separately to add to a coat. Can anyone advise on where I can find these coats? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maktak Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 So the two sources I know of which (I think) are based around the UK are South West Ten: https://southwestten.com/collections/women-1 and Ducie: http://www.ducie.co.uk/ I imagine Mr Mrs Furs ships to the UK, though I cannot say. Then there's Ohhhlala (https://www.ohhhlala.com/), I guess, if you don't mind paying extra for shipping? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smother Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 You can buy almost the exact same coats and jackets on Aliexpress for a fraction of the cost. I would wager that that is where a lot of these shops are getting the coats from anyway. Smother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maktak Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I don't have any experience purchasing off AliExpress / Taobao, but I've been tempted (by the prices). However, I'm hesitant to put out any money when it's hard to find sellers not using stock photos or ripping off other seller's photos en masse. (Reverse image search on such listings on Taobao is actually how I get my Korean styler fix every winter!) In my opinion, this practice reflects very poorly on the seller. Though if any of you have had positive experiences purchasing off AliExpress / Taobao, I would love to hear about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fur Fan Man Posted March 18, 2017 Author Share Posted March 18, 2017 Thanks guys. Yea I also share the temptation and hesitation of AliExpress but probably won't chance it. It's just bizarre that I'm seeing so many raccoon hoods but they don't seem to be sold in many places. This place looks very reasonable but mostly out of stock. https://www.theboutiqueessex.co.uk/collections/fur Also tempted to buy the fur trim separately and attach to a coat but could be fiddly.

elbas3175 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 There are a load of people selling parkas lined with fox or raccoon on Instagram. From Ukraine and Russia in particular. I've found a couple in the UK and the US as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quirky Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Probably from Sorel/Canada Goose. Possibly some coyote as well not necessarily raccoon. I'm not sure if Canada Goose uses raccoon at all but I know Sorel for sure uses coyote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miller9163286 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 The reverse image search is a very useful tool to help you to find the images that you are looking for... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
