Don't know exactly......year it all stopped.......but I can remember a time women proudly wore mink or fox coats and jackets......even in fall and spring...... fur collars....wrists......trim....was always a status symbol and used to show off in front of friends and relatives.........even the large dry cleaner in town ......advertising on tv of their " fur vault " for proper out of season storage of fur outerwear.......can't remember the year but it all went away overnite.....

I bought the wife a mink coat last year for her birthday. Still prominent in colder climates, it's hard to beat. I have a set of beaver gauntlets I use on my snow machines too. I'd like to say I have more, but it sure is spendy. Not sure where the cost comes in, I know the guy who caught all those mink didn't get much out of the deal, and I doubt the tannery did either

Plenty of fur is worn in America, it's just not celebrated like it used to be.

I'd wear more if I knew how to sew good. I have a truck or two that cost less than the mink coat I got the missus

I saw a pic a couple of days ago with J Lo wearing a full length fur coat.
