Tell Wilson You Need Vegan Gym Equipment

Consumers do not want their sports equipment to be manufactured in a way that causes distress to animals and negatively impacts the environment. And if the documentary about James Cameron Changes to the rules of the game taught us anything, namely that athletes of all types go vegan to improve their game and be kinder to animals, the planet and their bodies. So why aren’t athletic equipment manufacturers keeping up with this? It’s time for the sporting goods makers to change their game.

Sporting goods company Wilson says it is “the number one equipment brand for more sports than any other brand.” This gives him the ability to save countless animal lives and take huge steps to protect the planet.

Leather, such as that used in Wilson’s baseball and softball gloves, usually comes from cows that have undergone branding, tail docking, and castration. Some animals are skinned while they still conscious… And in more than 100 wool factories visited by PETA investigators – even on so-called “sustainable” and “responsible” farms – workers beat, trampled, slaughtered sheep, and cut their throats. Nobody should be hurt by a tennis ball. Livestock production accounts for almost one fifth of all anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions.

Cows are intelligent, sensitive people who feel pain and fear, develop deep relationships, and are empowered when they reach their goals. Meek sheep are most happy with their flock mates and jump into the air with excitement when they see their friends and family. These animals do not want to suffer and die to become sports equipment, no more than our dogs and cats.

Please convince Wilson to obtain the animal-based materials from Start with an easy transition to leatherless baseball and softball gloves and woolless tennis balls.
