Bison Coats

During the cold winters on the plains,  it was common for the Native American people to wrap themselves in the hides of bison for warmth.

These elegant, full-length bison coats will keep you warm in comfort and style.  They are fully tailored by Georgia in the tradition of Old World furriers.  The man's coat features a large shawl collar and raglan sleeves and is 50" long.   The woman's coat is 45" long, has princess seaming, set-in sleeves, and is available with a notched collar or a hood.

All coats are custom fit according to your measurements (See Measurement Form).  You may choose buttons in deer antler or bison bone.  The double lining is heavy flannel-backed satin with an inner shell of muslin.

If you have a special design in mind, Georgia will work with your sketch and draft a pattern for your one-of-a-kind coat.

This picture, taken in Georgia's Leather Factory, displays her newest coat which was on display in Salt Lake City, Utah during the 2002 Winter Olympics.
