Men's Fur & Shearling Jackets

Fur jackets are made with animal pelts that retain the full fur on one side, giving them a luxurious, plush exterior. Shearling jackets, on the other hand, are made from sheepskin or lambskin with the wool still attached to the hide, the leather side faces outward, and the wool lines the interior. Both offer exceptional warmth, but shearling provides a rugged, timeless look, while fur jackets lean more toward a premium, fashion-forward appearance.

Yes, both are among the warmest outerwear options available. Shearling naturally insulates by trapping body heat while allowing air to circulate, preventing overheating. Fur jackets excel in extreme cold thanks to their dense fibers, which block wind and retain warmth even in subzero temperatures. These jackets are perfect for men who want maximum warmth without compromising on classic or luxurious style.

A proper fit should allow enough room for comfort while keeping the jacket close enough to preserve heat. The shoulders should sit naturally, and the sleeves should reach the wrist without pulling when arms are bent. Since shearling and fur are naturally thick, avoid sizing up too much, they’ll mold to your body with wear. The fit should balance warmth, comfort, and a flattering silhouette that complements your frame.

Both materials need gentle care to maintain their texture and longevity. After wearing, shake the jacket lightly to remove dust and moisture. For shearling, wipe the leather exterior with a soft damp cloth and use a suede brush for the wool side. For fur, use a specialized fur brush to keep it soft and tangle-free. Always store in a cool, dry space on a wide hanger inside a breathable garment bag. Avoid direct heat, sunlight, or plastic covers, as they can cause drying or matting. With occasional conditioning and professional cleaning, a quality fur or shearling jacket can last for decades while maintaining its luxurious appeal.
