Victory: J.Crew Is Now Fur-Free!

For 11 short weeks, PETA's supporters waged a vigorous campaign against retailer J.Crew, capturing headlines and attention throughout the nation, demanding that the chain stop selling fur clothing, fur trim, and other fur items. This pressure, along with a tremendous outcry from J.Crew's own customers, who were shocked to see that the retailer was supporting the violent and bloody fur industry, paid off: On November 30, 2005, J.Crew confirmed that it will no longer sell any fur.

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 putting rabbits, coyotes, foxes, and other animals through horrible lives and torturous deaths will not be tolerated.

Thank you to everyone who made this step forward in the fight against cruelty to animals possible. If you haven't already, take a look at FurIsDead.com for more ways to help animals killed for their fur.
