Fur ruff for Norrøna cotton smock

[gilamator]

I am looking to source a velcro backed fur ruff to fit the hood on a Norrona Svalbard cotton anorak.

Unfortunately Norrona do not manufacture them any longer.

Does anyone have a suggestion of where these, or a similar type, can be bought?

Many thanks in advance

Funnily enough, I've been looking for a couple for our bergans jackets that were being sold off cheap in Norways Coop a couple of years ago. I contacted Bergans but never got a reply and it looks like they stopped doing them to.
Cheers for the link Janne, they look lovely.

You are welcome!
If you change the currency to GBP you will see they are not that expensive.

You could buy raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides) pelts from Finland and make your own. One large pelt will make one good or two lesser ruffs. Since raccoon dogs are hunted for being pests, their pelts cost far less than e.g. imported coyote pelts from Canada.

True. He could also go into a charity shop and look for old fur. Lots of people in UK are anti-fur, and people are getting rid of these items.
