I'm a big fan of Merino wool and have enjoyed my prior Fitsok purchases. Before I purchase any more, though, I have an animal welfare question for Fitsok. Do any of your wool suppliers practice mulesing? I don't see any related information or certifications on the website.
bitsofstringGreat question and very important for sure! We're triple confirming with the supplier to make sure, but it seems they are closed for the week. Trying to gather what we can in the interim but wanted to let you know we're on it!
kim.suarezIt's disappointing to see this question was never answered. You should have followed up on this long ago. And while I don't necessarily agree that the supplier shouldn't perform the procedure, I do agree they shouldn't do so without using anesthetic. So I, too, would like to know their practices regarding this.
vertigo220Oh man! So sorry guys! Not sure why I didn't see this! I had to reconfirm as I didn't receive an answer before. But Yes! They only source from reputable wool wills that do not participate in mulesing of the sheep.
