{{Info|'''Foxfur''' is a type of [[leather]] produced when a [[Skills#Cooking|cook]] butchers an [[arctic fox|arctic]], [[fennec fox|fennec]], or [[red fox]] at a [[butcher table]].}}

==Analysis==
Foxfur is one of many [[textiles]] with protection stats almost identical to [[plainleather]]. However it diverges in most other values having better cold insulation, item hit points, market value and [[Property:Beauty Factor|beauty factor]]. It is somewhat comparable to [[Bluefur]] in this regard.

As it is 6-way tied for the 11th most protective textile in the game, it is largely irrelevant as protective [[clothing]] after the very early game, and even then there are many other options that are just as good or better. While its cold insulation is moderately good, there are several textiles that provide both better protection and equivalent or better insulation, including [[Wolfskin|wolf]] and [[bearskin]], [[heavy fur]], [[devilstrand]] and, of course, [[thrumbofur]]. Thus, like its use in protection, foxfur will be superceded in this role after the early game. The fact other common leathers create items with 30% more hit points further solidifiees this obsolence, 

For use in [[furniture]], its place as the textile with the 8th highest [[Property:Beauty Factor|beauty factor]] and market value makes it a good choice for improving furniture [[beauty]] and [[room stats]]. However sourcing enough material to use this commonly will be difficult, as to gather enough fur for even a single [[armchair]] would require butchering of 5 foxes. 

Foxfur's high market value also make it a valuable commodity, especially if processed into a high [[quality]] item of [[clothing]] or [[furniture]] first. While the efficiency of raising foxes for the slaughter is unknown, it is likely inferior to [[chinchilla]]s and [[chinchilla fur]] for this purpose.

==Version History==
*Foxfur was added in update 0.19/1.0 as a merger of different fur types from foxes: arctic foxskin, fennec foxskin and red foxskin.
