Coach\u2019s pathetic attempt at greenwashing its cruelly obtained leather products is nothing short of a despicable con.<\/strong> Slapping trendy buzzwords like \u201crecycled,\u201d \u201cregenerative,\u201d and \u201csustainable\u201d on its bags does nothing to prevent the inherent cruelty or environmental destruction in the leather trade, which can never be truly sustainable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cows are social animals. They have the ability to recognize more than 100 other cows, and they form close friendships with members of their herd. Researchers report that cows grieve when their friends or family members die. But more than a billion gentle cows and other animals are killed annually for their skin worldwide<\/a>. These animals are forced to endure all the horrors of factory farming\u2014including castration, branding, dehorning, and tail docking, often without any painkillers. After a lifetime of intensive confinement, they\u2019re typically transported to slaughterhouses, where their throats are slit and some are even skinned and dismembered while they\u2019re still conscious<\/strong>, often in full view of other terrified animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
