The People of the Far North Clothing Page

In the winter Inuits wore two sets of clothes to keep warm from their heads to their toes. An inner suit was worn with the fur turned outside in to provide warmth next to the wearer's skin. The outer suit was worn with the fur facing away from the wearerto seal in body heat for its Inuit bearer. Most items of clothing were made from the skins of Caribou because it was lightweight, durable and of course warm.
