Actually it is not fur but glass indeed. The idea that it was fur was thought out by some modern(ish) french authors who thought they understand the meaning of the tale better than anyone but ancien versions of the tale do mention a glass shoe. A shoe made in a precious, fragile and impratical material showing the magic infuse in the setup.
