For Those of You Who Signed Petition Against J.Crew Fur Trade: They Promise NO MORE FUR!

Thanks to each and every one of you who signed the petition, handed out leaflets, called the CEO to tell him how horrified you were that the company was selling fur, and otherwise helped the cause. After just 11 short weeks, this pressure has paid off. On November 30, J.Crew confirmed that it will no longer sell fur—no fur garments, no fur trim, no fur anything. Joining the ranks of top fashion retailers H&M, Forever 21, and others that have adopted fur-free policies, J.Crew is sending a powerful message to the clothing industry that subjecting rabbits, coyotes, foxes, and other animals to horrible lives and torturous deaths will not be tolerated.

In light of this exciting agreement, please dispose of any J.Crew campaign materials that you have, and please stop contacting the company.

Thanks again for all that you did to play an important part in this step forward in the fight against cruelty to animals! Please forward this good news to a friend.

Sincerely,

Ian Blessing

Re: For Those of You Who Signed Petition Against J.Crew Fur Trade: They Promise NO MORE FUR!

that's great that they've agreed to this.

but how can everyone know for sure if in fact that they actually honor this agreement?? Chat Icon
does PETA send inspectors BACK after a while to see if the practice is still ongoing, or is just their word sufficient? i never really believed when a major corporation agrees to cease these types of practices, that they actually do. at least not completely.
