Cole Haan to stop using fur on its shoes

BEAVERTON, Ore. – Nike subsidiary Cole Haan says it will go fur-free in 2008.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals had asked Cole Haan to stop using fur in its products. While Nike doesn’t use any fur in its own products, Cole Haan uses fur in coats and gloves.

Cole Haan, which is headquartered in New York and Yarmouth, Maine, says it will stop using fur in its product line for “business and sustainability reasons.”
