This store is the only retail place in the World where I go to hug the merchandise. Charisma Furs has the most gorgeous fur coats for women with perhaps the best selections, with jackets dating back to the 1950’s. There are pelts in almost all of the Canadian wildlife, from coyotes, foxes, mink, to beaver. There are services offered to the true fur aficionado, which include that thing which they do to stuff the faces of your pelt. It’s one of the few places I go and strike up a conversation with the staff/owners of which that I am actually interested in having. My first time here was with my friend Claire, whose fondness for the velvety texture of all the things on the racks was as animated as a girl in a fur Shoppe can be. I was equally as ecstatic, but kept my emotions securely tucked under my stolid persona. Really though, I wanted to roll naked on the floor with these beautiful things! For foxtails and small items, Charisma has the best price among all the competing shops in the area. A fox jacket costs around $ 2100, which isn’t that bad. The selection is quite impressive, and the service is very friendly. Not like; «Hello, hi, how are you?» friendly. But they actually engage in casual talks and both they and I were able to educate each other on the fur trade. More so them educating me than me – them… I eventually bought Claire a foxtail from here, and through that I believe I’ve discovered the blankie equivlent for the adult female.
