In other words, it comes down to a personal decision on which you regard as being more important out of your preferences or the suffering animals? As a vegan, I chose the latter and so went down a different path to you. Having said that, causing or condoning animal suffering for vanity/cosmetic reasons (e.g. fur coats) is pretty difficult for anyone to defend in my opinion.

Perhaps it is no longer in fashion, but natural furs are almost always better insulators than anything artificial replacement... from a purely practical point of view, a natural fur coat will probably keep you much warmer in cold weather.I know a lot of people seem to have trouble with animals raised for food, hide, or other by-products, and frankly there are certain aspects of the process I'd rather not know about. But all things considered, I'd still prefer not give up my leather furniture, coat, wallet, etc. or my steak, hamburgers etc. - any non-animal substitute you can think of just won't quite measure up.

I thought that fur was sort of done with...

I remember those fox hides when I was a kid, they were in fashion and my mom had one. But now I would never buy one, I just can't think of supporting that type of industry.
