Adidas Takes a Stand
In a significant move towards ethical sourcing, Adidas has halted the use of kangaroo skins in its athletic footwear line. This decision comes after increasing pressure from the Center for a Humane Economy, which advocates for the humane treatment of animals. With this change, Adidas joins other prominent brands that have made similar commitments to sustainability and animal welfare.
This decision reflects a broader trend in the fashion and footwear industry, where companies are increasingly prioritizing ethical practices. As consumer awareness grows, brands are recognizing the importance of aligning their values with those of their customers. Adidas’ commitment to discontinuing kangaroo skins is a positive step towards not only enhancing its brand image but also promoting a more humane approach to production.
