Amsterdam-based outerwear brand Hemp Tailor (formerly HoodLamb by Hemp Tailor) continues to be a leader in the sustainable fashion industry. With its faux-fur lining made from recycled plastic bottles, Hemp Tailor offers an eco-friendly and animal-free choice for anyone who knows how cruel Canada Goose’s feather-and-coyote-fur jackets are. Plus, its new knitwear collection, made with recycled hemp and organic cotton, was selected as the Best Wool-Free Collection by PETA U.K. Ladies nordic parka Hemp Tailor’s light but sturdy jackets feature vegan materials such as Zelan R3, a weather-resistant coating that’s derived from renewably sourced plant materials and one of the strongest environmentally friendly ways to protect your gear from the elements. Select styles also incorporate REPREVE insulation, a feather-free down that keeps wearers warm even in the most frigid temperatures.

“We are urgently expanding our efforts to reverse the harmful effects of today’s fashion industry,” Hemp Tailor states on its website. Hemp’s sustainability and durability make it the perfect material for animal-friendly outerwear. From insulated puffer jackets to wool-free knit sweaters, you can find everything that you need to stay warm this winter.

PETA encourages compassionate shoppers to wear their values on their sleeve by choosing retailers whose products are kind to animals and the environment.


[promo-vegan-pledge]Birds used in down production often spend their entire lives in crowded, filthy conditions and are denied water to swim and bathe in, the opportunity to forage for food, and, sometimes, even enough room to turn around.

A 2016 PETA exposé revealed that workers tore out birds’ feathers as the animals struggled and screamed, leaving gaping, bloody wounds.

Coyotes and other animals trapped in the wild for their fur often suffer for days in steel-jaw traps that slam down on their legs, frequently cutting to the bone. The animals die from blood loss, shock, dehydration, gangrene, or attacks by predators. Mother foxes, in particular, have been known to chew off their own legs in an attempt to escape and return to their young.
