A bobcat fur coat retailing on a specialist fur site might start around $2,000 for a basic sectioned bobcat coat, but most go for a lot more than that if well made.

Lynx coats generally cost more than straight bobcat because the fur is rarer and thicker/softer: about $5,000 – $25,000 or more for new high-end pieces. Some luxury pieces with prime lynx belly fur can be much higher ($30K-100K), depending on styling and heritage.

A lynx belly fur coat uses only the rare, pure white, spotted underbelly for ultimate luxury, making it extremely expensive, while a full pelt coat uses the entire skin, including the browner, less uniform back, offering a more affordable but still beautiful and spotted garment, with the belly sections still being the most prized parts. The belly fur is prized for its distinct pure white base and crisp black spots, requiring many pelts to create one garment, whereas full pelt coats balance luxury with accessibility. Very expensive and rare because it uses only the best, whitest part of each pelt, demanding more effort and pelts per garment. Other coats use the full lynx pelt which are still high quality and luxurious, using skilled craftsmanship to integrate the different parts of the pelt and the coats tend to be more brown.

The most expensive types of fur coats are made from rare furs like Russian sable, chinchilla, and lynx, with Russian sable being the most valuable due to its unique softness and sheen.  Minx, silver fox, and other furs are the usual starting points for a collection.
