fur on direct contact with the epidermis is probably more warm and comfortable than wearing a jacket with the fur on the outside.

Is a fur coat warmer with the fur inside or outside?

A fur coat is warmer with the fur on the inside because the fur acts as an insulator that traps heat close to your body. When the fur is on the outside, it may provide some protection against the cold, but it is not as effective as when it is on the inside.

Why is a fur coat warmer if the fur is on the inside?

The fur lining of a coat creates what are called dead air spaces inside that coat. Air in these tiny spaces will warm up from body heat, but because the air can't move around very well, convection is kept to a minimum. The fur has thus created a layer of insulation inside the shell of the jacket, and this will reduce heat loss. Fur on the inside of a coat will thus act to keep the wearer warmer than if the fur was on the outside.A classic example of the application of this idea is the sheepskin coat. The leather side is out, and the wool (the fur) acts as the lining. The wool creates myriad dead air spaces, and there is no large-scale convection happening. This minimizes the conduction of heat away from the body and out to where it is lost. These coats work so well that they can actually be uncomfortably warm on anything but a truly cold day. Use the link below to view images of the sheepskin jacket and consider the effect of the lining.


Why is a fur coat warmer inside out?

Insulation is mainly a question of the amount of trapped air, and inside-out traps more air against you.


Is a winter jacket a poor conductor of heat?

jackets are insulators so it starts leaving the heat of the jacket inside. Jackets with fur inside are the warmest kinds of jackets not just because they have fur but even without fur they are still warm,anyways they are warm because the heat during the winter is cold and Insulators stop the energy from going through the material.
