Heavy fur is a type of leather produced when a cook butchers a megasloth at a butcher table.

Acquisition

The following animals provide heavy fur.

Animal	Leather Yield
Megasloth	160

Analysis

Heavy fur is the 5th most protective textile against sharp and blunt, and tied 3rd against heat. It is the 4th best for cold insulation in the game. Only thrumbofur provides better protection and cold insulation.

In cold biomes, heavy fur is very useful against cold. For example, a heavy fur tribalwear can allow a pawn to wear a duster or jacket of a more protective, but less insulating material. In very cold biomes, like the ice sheet, heavy fur parkas offer a great mix of protection and cold insulation.

Outside of cold biomes, it should be replaced by better materials like devilstrand whenever possible. Prioritize your best material for dusters, where they will have the greatest impact. If you are limited on better textile, use extra fur for pants and button-down shirts. Heavy fur is strong enough where even pants provide some protection against bullets.

For use in furniture, it has a middle-of-the-road beauty factor. But more beautiful textiles like thrumbofur are in high demand as clothing. So, once redundant as clothing, it is a decent choice for furniture beauty.

-Heavy fur is the 5th most protective [[textile]] against sharp and blunt, and tied 3rd against heat. It is also the 4th best cold insulator in the game, and only [[thrumbofur]] provides both superior protection and cold insulation. While its heat insulation is mediocre, it is still one of the best balanced [[textiles]] between protection and insulation and provides approximately 15% more item hit points than other leathers. It is a very good candidate for [[duster]]s and clothing in the early game. However, outside of cold [[biomes]] it should be replaced by better materials such as [[Devilstrand]] in the mid-game, with dusters receiving priority.

-As it provides enough sharp protection for even [[pants]] and [[button-down shirt]]s to have a chance to stop attacks, it can be valuable to transition to using heavy fur for those items to save limited stocks of better materials for dusters where they will have more impact while still providing some chance to deflect a blow after AP.
+In cold [[biome]]s, heavy fur is very useful against cold. For example, a heavy fur [[tribalwear]] can allow a pawn to wear a [[duster]] or [[jacket]] of a more protective, but less insulating material. In very cold biomes, like the ice sheet, heavy fur [[parka]]s offer a great mix of protection and cold insulation.
-In cold biomes its lifespan may be longer as heavy fur [[tribalwear]] can allow a pawn to survive without having to sacrifice the greater protection from a [[duster]] of a stronger material for something warmer. In very cold biomes, very warm materials on all items may be required to survive. In such instances, heavy fur's particular stat balance excels.
-For use in [[furniture]], it has a middle-of-the-road [[Property:Beauty Factor|beauty factor]], but its eventual redundancy as clothing and the demand for more beautiful textiles like [[Thrumbofur]] in other roles makes it a decent choice for improving furniture [[beauty]] once the colony has transitioned to more protective textiles.
