The following was submitted by the Vaad L’Mishmeres Shatnez Olami: This is a sketch of a shatnez linen blend jacket that was being sold exclusively in Jewish owned retail stores.
The shatnez is in the trim of the jacket. The matching pants are also shatnez (not shown).
Why don’t you say what company or store?
What label?
Maybe if they say who business is they would lose business and effect their reputation. It would be nice if it was noted if resolved or a number to call.
Is it Loshon Horah if you tell us the name of the store?
If it was kashrus , everyone would?
I guess u can get a hint from the label>
I know we dont want to kill anyones business, but they should advertise on their own and let everyone know
No need to ruin someone’s business reputation. It is not ossur to sell shatnez clothing. It is the buyers responsibility to check for shatnez. According to many rabbonim and poskim one should always check regardless of what the label states or what the store clerk says. This is simply an awareness post.
The point of the post appears to be that one should test all garments for Shatnez and not assume that since its bought in frum store it’s ok
