Fur fetishism is the name popularly used to describe a fetishistic attraction to people wearing fur, or in certain cases, to the garments themselves.

One reason why fur may be fetishized is perhaps that the garment forms a “second skin” that acts as a fetishistic surrogate for the wearer’s own skin. This is heightened by the fact that the fur was originally an animal’s skin and hair. The fur fetishists also refer to fur being “very soft and sensuous”, and to the “tickling sensations” that the touch of fur creates against their skin, especially on the sensitive parts.

I have to admit it is a distinct sensual, and erotic sensation while putting on a fur coat. This is especially true while I am wearing nothing or very little underneath. Many fur coats are lined with silk which feels like butter to my skin.
