Mega-retailer American Eagle Outfitters joins Timberland and Limited Brands—which operates stores under The Limited, Express, Henri Bendel, Victoria's Secret, and other major names—as the latest major company to join the retailer-led movement to reform the Australian wool industry by pledging to not use Australian merino wool until lamb mutilations and live sheep exports end.
Along with Abercrombie & Fitch, J.Crew, SmartWool, and others, these companies have made a compassionate decision that sends a powerful message to the Australian wool industry: Cruelty to animals will not be tolerated.
