Men's Sheepskin Coats: Timeless Elegance

Shearling's history in men's fashion is a bit woolly. The fabric's history with the air force and association with brave aviators will always lend shearling coats an air of fly-boy cool. Aside from being warm and tactile, the shearling looks luxurious.

What is shearling?

Shearling is a term used to describe a lamb that has undergone only one shearing. Shearling lambskins are skins that are tanned, processed, and dyed while still retaining the wool. Using this method, you can make a suede- or leather-like material with a plush woolly reverse.

Shearling is a type of fur in which the wool remains attached to the skin. In addition to being used for luxurious outerwear, lambskin shearling leather is also a popular choice for jackets, hats, gloves, and other accessories.

Sheepskin coats have been worn by men since prehistoric times when fur was a necessity for staying warm. During World War I, sturdy, ultra-warm shearling jackets were manufactured to protect pilots flying uninsulated planes in subzero temperatures. Men's sheepskin shearling coats were still worn by soldiers in World War II.

Faux Shearling vs Genuine Shearling

No one wants to be duped into giving their money for something that isn't worthwhile. It is extremely difficult to tell the difference between faux shearling and genuine shearling because it accurately mimics the look of genuine shearling.

The lifespan is what sets it apart from genuine shearling. A well-cared-for piece of genuine shearling can be passed down through the family for generations, while its faux shearling will fall apart after a year or two at the most.

Difference Between Sherpa, Shearling, and Sheepskin

Real shearling is more flexible and breathes better than sherpa, which is also called faux shearling. Shearling has denser fur on it and is much heavier in weight. The primary distinction between shearling and sherpa is that sherpa has a bit of shine on the outside while the outside of shearling is dull and a bit sticky to the touch.

Shearling Jacket Style

You still haven't worn all those fall-inspired outfits, right? Well if you want to wear them you can pair them with warm and cozy shearling jackets. It will give an air of sophistication.

Shearling Coat Style

Keep your styling simple yet luxurious by pairing your shearling coat with t-shirts, trousers, and sneakers. It may appear to be a basic look of having a long coat over t-shirts or sneakers but it allows the smaller details of your coat i.e. cut, hardware, or color to stand out and will further prove the power of owning this shearling coat.

What to Consider When Buying a Shearling Jacket

Since a shearling coat is an expensive investment, you should think about the following points before making a purchase.

Size

Shearling jackets are naturally bulky, and you typically need to size up to wear anything thicker than a T-shirt underneath them, so if you are short and stocky, it is not advisable to choose a bulky bomber jacket with a collar that encircles your entire head. Without a doubt, you will appear ridiculous.

Likewise, if you are tall and slender, a flight jacket will make you look like a Magnum ice cream. Having the right ratios is crucial.

Style

The flight jacket is the most ubiquitous style of a men's sheepskin coat. They are masculine, functional, and simple to dress up or down.

Fabric

When looking for shearling, you may find yourself confronted with the ethical fashion industry's knotty dilemma. For ethical reasons, some people just can't buy real animals.

Color

The most typical and widespread look is tan shearling, which is associated with the Del Boy stereotype. If you're looking for something other than black, a sheepskin long coat is a good place to start.

While many classic fur jackets for men have white sheepskin linings or collars, many contemporary shearling jackets have the linings dyed to give a tonal appearance.

FAQs: Men's Sheepskin Coat

Are shearling jackets worth it?

As one of the most luxurious outerwear options, a men's shearling jacket is also one of the most costly. Despite this, it has features that increase its desirability to buyers. It's not surprising how prominently it has been displayed in stores all through the cold season. The ability to keep you warm makes it worthwhile.

What is real shearling made of?

A real shearling is a one-shorn yearling sheep and is made from the wool of a sheep or lamb that was sheared just before it was slaughtered.

Is shearling warmer than wool?

There’s no doubt that shearling is warmer than wool. As the leather prevents the wool from getting wet by acting as a barrier to the weather elements. Moreover, shearling's lofty wool effectively traps a lot of unnecessary air movement.
