Finding a Faux Fur Jacket

Erin Duff
As the weather becomes colder, you will likely be switching from a light fall jacket to a heavier, warmer winter jacket. Instead of the same boring jacket you wear year after year, consider a faux fur jacket. It adds a unique touch to your everyday winter wear, and can be found in several different stores. All of the following jackets reviewed are available online as well.

As I looked for a faux fur jacket to wear to work, I found a tweed jacket with a faux fur collar at Neiman Marcus. This is my favorite jacket, as it has a classic tweed print. The jacket is brown/multicolored, has a button-front, flap pockets, and long sleeves. It falls at mid-thigh. It is available in sizes 4-14, and is currently listed for $325. I have a similar jacket (it has a black print) that I purchased at Kohl's, and it was only $89.

If you're looking for a basic black jacket with a faux fur collar, you can find it at Jones New York. A fitted classic black leather jacket is available with a removable faux fur mink collar. The jacket falls at the hip, and would be appropriate for work and during weekend activities. The jacket is well-made, and would be a flattering option for several different body types. It is available in sizes small, medium, and large, and is currently listed for $199.99.

If you would prefer an all faux fur jacket, consider purchasing the faux fur jacket available in the Grandpointe catalog or online. This jacket has mod acrylic fur with polyester backing, and looks very warm! The jacket falls at the hip, and has a pea coat style cut that buttons down. It's available in both ivory and black, and has sizes from 6-26W. The prices begin at $74.99, and plus sizes are available for $78.99.

If you'd prefer a jacket to wear outside while skiing, sled-riding, or playing the snow, consider the Spyder faux fur jacket. This jacket is eco-friendly, water-repellent, weatherproof, and has both body and sleeve insulation. The Spyder jacket is given a classier feel due to the removable faux fur collar, which is tan. The list of features is much too long to mention in one review, but this jacket is perfect for anyone who spends a lot of time outdoors. This faux fur jacket is available in black and hurricane, which is a darker shade of blue with light-blue accents. The available sizes are sizes 4-14. This jacket is pricey but worth the cost, at $378.35.

If you'd prefer a jacket that is similar to the Spyder faux fur jacket but costs less, consider the Sears Weather Tamer faux fur trim hooded butterfly quilt jacket. It is available in both black and brown, and has a grey faux fur collar. It sits at the hip, and has a fit similar to the Spyder jacket. The sizes available are small to extra-large, and the jacket only costs $59.99.

As you can see, faux fur jackets are available in a wide variety of colors, styles, and prices. Consider adding this to your wardrobe for a fun new winter look!
