NEW YORK (Reuters) - An animal rights group on Friday accused Macy's of selling a coat with a real animal fur collar even though it was advertised as fake fur.
The Humane Society of the United States said a $237.99 Sean John Hooded Snorkel Jacket for sale on Macy's Web site was described as having an "imitation rabbit fur collar."
But the group said when it purchased the coat, the label read "Made in China" and "genuine raccoon fur." The group said it is testing the fur to see if it is from a raccoon dog, a type of dog raised in China whose fur resembles that of a raccoon.

LOL................. on his tombstone.

It is fake RABBIT, but not fake FUR.
Well, they didn't say it was "fake fur", they said it was "imitation rabbit".
The Turks think they have it bad with conspiracies and Hurufis hiding around every corner, but they lag the West in that area, too.
Beautiful isn't it? Wish I could have one but they are waaaaay tooo expensive--even if I could find one.
Very true. And if it was not rabbit then they complied with the "truth in labeling" laws.
Funny thing is Sean P Diddy Combs owns the Sean John clothing label and has been heavily criticized in the past for his love of wearing fur coats...
Beautiful isn't it?
