Excellent faux fur for my needs! I bought this fur for two purposes: One, I have an old Air Force N3B Parka that I wanted to replace the fur trim on because the previous owner had neglected to take care of it properly. It had become matted, yellowed and hideous, and I figured the grey/white look of this faux fur would compliment the olive drab Jacket nicely, which it did. It fact, it looks great! The underside of the fur has a fabric side which my sister in law was able to sew easily to the parka's hood. I'm not sure how well the fur will hold up to wet weather, but before next winter hits I'll be sure to research if there are any options for treating it.The other reason I bought the fur was for some newborn photography. At the time, we had a little one on the way. Now, she's 6 months old, and I'm still using this fur for backdrops (there was plenty leftover from the small amount I needed for the hood). The fur is so soft, and our girl has never acted like she was irritated being on it. I've noticed no problem with shedding, either. And this stuff adds such a touch of professionalism, especially with some natural light hitting it. It looks great with both hard and soft focus. I still plan on picking up some other colored furs eventually to switch it up a little. I definitely recommend this to photographers. It's great quality and inexpensive for the amount you get.
