Hi everyone,
I'm new here (hi!)
And I hope that this forum is the right place to bring up these questions, if not please advise me...

I am interested to know, what you think and feel about clothing - in particular winter clothing (mitts, hats, coats) - that may be made with real animal fur and real animal leather.

Do you consider it to be functional (it'll keep you warm) and stylish (it looks presentable and you feel good wearing it)?

Or do you think fur and leather are immoral and don't want to have anything to do with natural animal products?

Or perhaps you don't think they are immoral, but it's just not for you?

- - - - -
why am I interested? I was thinking of starting a small business making upscale winter wear (using real fur made from fox, wolf etc.). I am old enough to remember the anti-fur sentiments of past years, but I also understand that fur has become trendy. So I'm unsure what people really think about fur.

Again I hope I'm using the forums in a proper manner, thank you for your help.

-VV
