You would think that fur owners would worry their fur wasn’t real—not the other way around.

But that’s exactly what the Humane Society of the United States says happened at Macy’s in Herald Square: A coat advertised as faux fur actually contains real fur.

The Sean John Hooded Snorkel Jacket was described online as containing nylon and faux fur and goose down. The coat supposedly had an imitation rabbit fur collar.

The Humane Society bought the coat. Its label says “Made in China” and “genuine raccoon fur,” according to the Humane Society.

The Macy’s Web site now says “We’re sorry. This product is currently unavailable.” And the picture’s been removed.

The Humane Society has submitted the coat for DNA testing to find out if it’s actually raccoon dog, a type of dog raised in China whose fur resembles raccoon. The Humane Society says dogs and cats are killed inhumanely in China.

UPDATE: A response from Federated Department Stores, Macy’s parent company:
“Our company has a standing policy against the selling of any dog or cat fur. This policy is clearly communicated to all suppliers. Our supplier contracts require that all products be labeled accurately. Any violation of our policies or contracts is pursued vigorously with our suppliers, and any inappropriate or inaccurately labeled product is removed from our stores and online sites. The information brought to our attention today by the Humane Society of the United States will be promptly investigated and appropriate action will be taken.”

A spokesman, Jim Sluzewski, said the jackets were immediately pulled from the stores and the Web site because they had been promoted as faux fur. But, he added, the Humane Society had no proof the fur was actually dog.

And this from Sean John: “The fabric content in all our garments is always properly labeled. However in this case, it appears that the trim of a jacket was incorrectly described by our retail partners and this error may have misled some consumers. For that we are very sorry.”
