Mission: Show That You’re Proud in Your Own Skin

Some humans really walk around wearing animals’ skin like it’s no biggie. 😯 Help save animals from suffering and dying for clothing with a clear, empowering message: “I’m proud in my own skin!”

Over a billion animals are abused and killed annually for their body parts. Sheep are stomped on, sliced, and slaughtered in the wool trade. Minks are forced to live in cramped, filthy cages and are electrocuted or gassed to death for their fur. Cows are burned, beaten, and killed for their skin—sometimes they’re even skinned alive. 😰

If you’re furious rn (and who wouldn’t be after reading that), remember: It doesn’t have to be this way. So many vegan materials mimic the feel of wool, fur, and animal skin. It’s never been easier to find comfy sweaters, chic coats, and sleek boots that don’t harm sheep, minks, or cows. 🙏 Look for materials like bamboo, hemp, organic cotton, nylon, and recycled polyester when you read the labels on items, and avoid wool, fur, leather, feathers, cashmere, and anything else that comes from an animal.
