Beyond Skin has tied up with World Animal Protection UK for its Tiger and Tigress product lines in aid of the public awareness campaign.
Luxury British footwear brand, Beyond Skin, has joined forces with World Animal Protection UK to sell designer slip-ons and stilettos in black faux suede with gold Tiger embroidery in aid of the organisation’s newly launched Wildlife. Not Entertainers campaign.
For International World Tiger Day, the boutique vegan company is promoting the stylish Tiger pumps and Tigress stilettos. In conjunction with the push, 10 percent from every sale will assist World Animal Protection in its efforts to end the use of all wild animals for entertainment.
The non-profit platform estimates that at least 550,000 wild animals including tigers, elephants, and dolphins suffer at the hands of irresponsible wildlife tourist attractions around the world, many of which are promoted and sold online to more than 300 million visitors each month.
Animals at the widely marketed venues are often taken from their mothers when young, beaten, and endure ongoing physical and psychological abuse during training to make them submissive enough to give rides, perform tricks or pose for holiday selfies with tourists.
“Ending the exploitation of animals is an issue that is close to our heart. We’re hoping the two styles we designed will start conversations about this campaign and raise people’s awareness that wild animals deserve so much more than suffering for the sake of a selfie,” a spokesperson from Beyond Skin said.
The aforementioned flat slip-ons are now on sale, while the stilettos are available to pre-order for a September delivery via the Beyond Skin website with free standard worldwide delivery, alongside express options. Orders are dispatched on the same day if place before 2:00 pm.
