No, fur would be closer to leather. You need the pelt to attach to other pelts to form the garment.

The fur needs to be crafted in certain directions to achieve the desired outcome. Much like the grain of leather.

I'm no fur expert by any means, these are just my thoughts derived from looking at different items at trade shows, etc.
