In the item description for the Nuage Quilted Coat, the fur trim is 88% acrylic, 9% polyester and 3% other. What is the other?? I’m very conscientious of purchasing faux fur from China, as they like to sneak in actual real fur from raccoon dogs without anyone knowing.  So, what is the other 3% made of?

You could ask customer care but I have a feeling whatever someone tells you, it will not be what they know but what they are guessing.  Do you think we all really know what comes out of China?!

I agree, I've seen several documentaries re: 'faux fur' from China being tested as coming from cat, dogs, etc.

 

After that, I won't even buy anything with 'faux fur'.

 

The fact that the description is so vague with 3% OTHER, tells me all I need to know to not buy it.

You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.

I in no way think we know everything that comes out of China, but if I can avoid contributing to crappy practices I will.  I’m also sure I will get a generic answer, but they should be aware that this description is lacking detail and transparency.
