The Truth About Faux Fur — And Why We Wear the Real Thing

ZUBEK’s ivory white sheepskin coat resting in warm sunlight on a textured floor. Naturally luxurious, biodegradable, and sculpted in clean, timeless design.

Sheepskin Is in Our DNA

We grew up in Poland, wrapped in thick ivory sheepskin coats that smelled like snow and home. Our grandmother wore hers every winter. It wasn’t trendy. It was real. It was passed down. And it lasted a lifetime.

That memory never left us.

So when we began designing outerwear for ZUBEK, we didn’t chase fast fashion. We returned to our roots — to real, skin-safe, heirloom-quality sheepskin fur.

Today, our signature sheepskin coat comes in two shades:

  • Rich Chocolate Brown — deep, sculpted, editorial edge

  • Ivory White — clean, timeless, a modern classic

Each one lined with silk. Cut to elevate. Built to last.

And when you wear it? You feel like a million

.


Why We Refuse to Use Faux Fur

Faux fur is marketed as "ethical." But here’s what brands aren’t telling you:

Faux fur is plastic.

  • It’s usually made from acrylic, polyester, or modacrylic — aka fossil fuel fabrics

  • These shed microplastics into our oceans and air

  • They’re not biodegradable and can stay in landfills for centuries

Faux fur is not breathable.

  • Traps heat and moisture

  • Can irritate sensitive skin

  • Feels heavy, sticky, or suffocating

Faux fur is often treated with toxic dyes and flame retardants

  • Can contain formaldehyde and endocrine disruptors

  • Definitely not something we want touching your skin — or your child’s

“Sustainable” should never mean wearing plastic.

Timeless, Elevated, Zero Plastic

Our sheepskin pieces are made in small batches, with:

  • No synthetic linings

  • No toxic finishes

  • No compromises

Just silk, skin-safe dyes, and sculpted elegance.

You can wear it to a meeting, a mountain lodge, or a midnight walk through the city.

You can pass it down.

You can trust it.


This Isn’t Fast Fashion. It’s An Heirloom.

Sheepskin isn’t trendy. It’s forever.

Just like the one our grandmother wore. Just like the one you’ll be remembered in.

No plastic. No drama. Just clean, real, radiant style.
