They aren't going to throw money away by selling real fur hoodies at a loss. That's just poor business sense.

the moose heads aren't real, either. parts of them may be, but for the most part, they're fake.

the only live anything ever in an anf co store was a live version of trubble and live cats/parrots for hco...but again those were live, not used in the clothing

Fur is extremely expensive to produce. It costs thousands of times more per square yard than does cotton.

I was saying, that lets say, you have a hoodie and a flannel from before, which most probably do have a hoodie, and maybe a flannel as well, you combne them and you dunn have to spend 150 USD to get something which you can spend 79.50 to make it at home or 0 dollars if you have them from before.

No. They kept live animals in the store which bothered peta, and the occasional greeny college girl.

Dunn? I think you mean "don't."

Yes, Abercrombie had an EZRA FITCH leather jacket back in Christmas 2005 that had a genuine fur collar, and RUEHL had fur booties and coats and purses, etc.
