“Adidas’ decision marks a historic milestone in animal protection and corporate responsibility,” said Jennifer Skiff, director of international programmes at the Centre for a Humane Economy.
Since the launch of the Kangaroos Are Not Shoes campaign in 2020, the Centre for a Humane Economy has led investigations, protests, litigation, and international coalition-building to expose the commercial slaughter of kangaroos in Australia. The kill has already dropped from 2 million to 1.3 million, the organisation said in a press release.
"Adidas joining its competitors in ending the use of kangaroo leather is not only a win for animals—it’s a win for transparency, ethics, and global consumer expectations. Australians and animal lovers worldwide owe a great deal to the relentless work of the Centre for a Humane Economy and the global coalition that made this possible," said Emma Hurst, member of parliament, Animal Justice Party, Australia.
