The Myth Of Snow Boots Sales Is Originated From Real Fur, But The Trend Is Artificial Fur.

Do not see, do not know, a look scared.

Type UGG on Taobao, or

The world of snow boots is mixed.

According to the most obvious feature of snow boots -- "fur and wool", tens of Yuan's snow boots also dares to mark the fur and the whole.

"Do not calculate the cost of wool.

Heavy beauty

The widespread sale of snow boots in China is a myth.

Two years ago, overnight boots became a fashion item for young people to buy.

The first person to see snow boots will be incomprehensible by this ugly and cumbersome figure, and it is such a boot that has swept the Eurasian land. Now there is a new trend in the world. The main trend of the wind is brought by the stars in Europe and America.

In the author's impression, the selling of snow boots is almost the same as that of Rome shoes.

First, the Internet came all over the place. Only a year later did we see the real products in the shopping mall.

At this time, the network price is two hundred or three hundred, and the real price of the shopping mall is two thousand or three thousand.

Whether it is genuine or imitation, it is marked "UGG", so I thought for a long time that UGG is a brand of snow boots.

In fact, snow boots were originally called Ugly boots, and later were referred to as UGG.

Snow boots were first developed in Australia during World War I. Australian pilots wrapped two sheepskins into shoes to protect themselves from the cold. Later, they gradually became popular in Australia.

The more popular brands are UGG Australia, JOMVOX, EMU, MOU, CGM excellent, Yellow Earth and so on.

There is a story about the rise of snow boots.

It is said that in 1870s, a young man in Australia would make a whole piece of sheepskin, which was hand-made into boots with leather and fur inside.

These boots are breathable and soft.

This accidental discovery became the prototype of a great product.

"Snow boots are very practical.

It's especially warm in winter.

Celebrities are also in love. It's still a fashion.

Snow boots are a good choice for people who are so cold to me. "

In the annex of Xidan, Beijing, I randomly interviewed several people who wore snow boots.

These wearers are full of praise for the warm function of snow boots.

Snow boots are equipped with short down jacket, long sweater, thin leg pants, some star fan.

From its initial and subsequent development, the biggest feature of snow boots is the integration of fur and fur.

Sheepskin and wool have a high price. This is due to the wide variety of processing procedures, the high precision requirements, the high price of raw materials, and the high cost of chemical materials.

Fur leather processing base was pferred from Europe to China in the latter part of the last century. Fur leather processing and manufacturing industry has been fully developed. In particular, the quality of fur and leather skin made of Merino lamb skin is more perfect, providing a rich soil for the development of snow boots, sheepskin and fur integrated products.

Material mix

Looking at the snow boots sold in the market, most of the snow boots are against their original idea of "fur and wool".

According to industry analysis, the cheap snow boots on the market are mainly in the following situations:

1. outside is suede flannelette, inside is artificial wool.

It is the name of a cloth, soft and soft, and the skin style of frosted effect is very similar, but the price is extremely cheap. It is often used on many thin boots.

Artificial wool is made of chemical fiber, and its luster is bright, but it is bright and false. It is light, dry, hard, layered and three-dimensional without any texture.

2. outside is suede, with wool inside.

This material is made of single sided woolen leather, which is very cheap.

3. outside, there are two layers of leather, also called beef down, which is made of artificial wool.

Velvet is very cheap, just like cloth.

Artificial wool has been mentioned above.

4. outside, there are two layers of leather, also called beef down, and wool inside.

This is better than the above three kinds of defective products.

However, compared with sheepskin and fur, the quality and price difference is not a grade.

The author interviewed a manufacturer of wool cushion in Xingtai, Hebei, and learned that they also produce some products for snowshoe manufacturers.

"What we supply is fur and wool, but some of the wool has a low density on the skin, so we take some rework by manual sewing."

The owner of the factory, who was unwilling to disclose his name, told the author, "sewing is made of some chemical fibers, which will make the whole fur look better and feel better."

Originally, there are also some fur covered snowy boots that have undergone such processing.

Among the many products of the snow boots, some of the boots of the snow boots are shiny, and it is difficult to distinguish whether they are real wool or imitation wool.

This experience reminds me of China's Plush city - Cixi, Zhejiang.

In Cixi, there are more than 200 fur processing enterprises.

The artificial fur produced by these enterprises can achieve a false degree of truth.

Reporters have visited Cixi Ningbo Datong textile printing and dyeing Co., Ltd., the fox fur produced by the company has no difference from real wool whether from the touch or gloss.

With such production technology, it is easy to produce products that imitate fur and fur.

Even the variation of the texture, hair direction and gloss of fox fur is not different from that of real fox fur, so it is not difficult to produce "skin and wool integrated" products similar to wool.

"The final products of our products include clothing accessories such as wool collar, shoes and other products.

Relatively speaking, shoes are slightly less demanding for artificial fur than clothing accessories, "said Yu Wanjun, general manager of Ningbo Datong textile printing and dyeing Co., Ltd.

Candy: protest by animal protection groups

Animal protection organizations have never ceased to protest fur.

I once saw an article in a forum about the making process of snow boots.

The sheep's body is dripping with blood in the photographs of animal fur.

After processing, it turned into a pair of beautiful snow boots.

When I saw this picture, I couldn't bear to buy the real fur and snow boots.

The animal protection organization is even more bitter about this.

This is an intolerable act of animal protection organizers.

Animal protection organizations are effective in protecting sheep.

As far as I know, the growth of Merino sheep in Australia, due to thick wool, sheep feces stuck to the hair, can not be promptly cleared, breeding a large number of flies, infected with the disease.

In order to prevent disease, some shepherds cut off the tail of the sheep and stripped the skin nearby, leaving a scar on the plate size.

Animal defenders therefore accused Australian herdsmen of "inhumane cruelty to animals".

Dissuaded by animal protection groups, some US and European retailers have announced that they boycotted Australian wool, causing the wool industry to suffer.

Finally, the Australian herdsmen made a compromise.

In accordance with the commitment of Australian wool producers, the cut tail will be formally abolished in 2010.

At present, Australia is promoting a method of clamping tail, and is progressing smoothly.

It is understood that in order to reshape the environmental image of wool, the Australian wool Producers Association has introduced a spray that can reduce the pain of live sheep.

It is understood that this analgesic spray can reduce the pain of live sheep after being cut 85%.

This is a learning experience for manufacturers of snow boots.

Before the animal protection organization focused on limiting the production of snow boots, it made an environmental gesture so that such a popular product could continue to be popular in the world.

Fur is luxurious and beautiful, but it is not environmentally friendly.

In order to solve this problem, fur clothing this year has been worn out fur fur luxurious feeling, and conforms to the current low carbon environmental protection life style.

What reason do we have to condemn the imitation fur boots? They are contributing to our environmental protection.

It is only that they should not tell lies. They should admit that they produce and sell snow boots are artificial fur.

This is an honor, and it is also the development direction of most of the future snow boots.

When the demand for snow boots is bigger and bigger, the fur boots should not be the mainstream.

However, the artificial fur snow boots should also be improved in air permeability and comfort.

When the air permeability and comfort of artificial fur are almost the same as that of real fur, why should we choose the real fur without environmental protection?

Snow boots, though starting from "fur and wool", are popular and fashionable.
