Sean John Jackets Finally Pulled

The New York Post reports, the Sean John flagship store on fifth avenue in NY. Was slow at pulling the Sean John dog fur jacket thats been questioned, in addition th retailer mislabeled the fur as "faux."
the $280 snorkel coats were still on display in the windows and on the racks at his Fifth Avenue flagship. And the coats were still erroneously labeled as made with raccoon fur - not that of the strange-looking dog. Macy's did pull the coats from its stores and Web site. The retailer had compounded the controversy by erroneously tagging the coats as containing "faux" fur. Even Combs' store employees were confused, first saying the fur was coyote, then rabbit. The fur fight "shows the complex ways in which consumers can be duped," said Michael Markarian, executive director of the Humane Society of the United States.

Only later the SJ Jockets were later pulled from the racks.
Only after Post inquires - and following a reporter's purchase of a dog-fur coat yesterday afternoon - did a saleswoman finally pull the coats from a rack, citing a "problem" with them. The jackets, part of Combs' fall line for men and women, came in black, brown or cream, with the women's versions rendered in leather.
