a_man_of_many_foxes Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Hello all, Hope everyone is doing well. I just wanted to say that I live in downtown Chicago (USA) and have seen a ton of furs out this winter. Consisting of all ages and genders. I have worn my brown mink jacket pretty much every day under 30°F and have received nothing but compliments and some staring (who cares). I see a lot of doom and gloom on this site, but I just wanted to post some fur positivity. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blowmybagpipes2 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Hey there, That's great to hear you have seen so many! I'm super jealous. I used to live on the North Side for two years back in 2017 and it was always a dream going down to Michigan to see all of the furs. Unfortunately I'm elsewhere in IL for my graduate degree. Would you be up for talking more about your experiences if I PM'd you? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minkme Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 That's good news to hear, a man of many foxes. I am glad to hear that are still parts of the USA that one can still wear furs in the winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's great that you do! Do you see any furs worn by other people in that area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoyoteFox Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 TORONTO's weather is perfect for fur right now... We just need the freedom to go out and have something to celebrate in our furs! Though the city is changing... Less "Old Money" fur wearers, and more confusion about whether it's socially-acceptable to wear fur. REALLY HOPING VINTAGE BECOMES MORE AND MORE ACCEPTABLE (big 80's and early 90's furs ), AND THAT CRITICS SEE THE USE OF OLD FUR AS MORE RESPECTFUL TO THE ANIMAL THAN DESTROYING THE GARMENT COMPLETELY.

WilliGCoyote Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 You think it'd be okay to bring a full fur coat to Chicago?? I'm wanting to go there this holiday season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
