Saila's Kuspuk Traditional Inuit Garment for 18-inch Dolls

Saila's Inuit kuspuk, traditional Arctic style from the Yukon!

Saila's dad is an Inuit guide in Canada's north. He led a Yukon expedition and brought her this kuspuk, a traditional Western Arctic garment. Saila was thrilled with her gift! The included journal pages tell the history and traditions of the kuspuk. It is also known as a qaspeq which translates to "cloth over parka". 

• A kuspuk is often worn over winter clothing, or it can be worn in the summer over a light layer of clothing to protect against the sun and bugs.

• This doll garment is sized to fit over Saila's starter outfit, including her polar fleece vest, but she can also wear it over just a t-shirt and jeans.

• The garment is fully lined. Traditionally a kuspuk is just pulled on over the head.  We have added a Velcro opening in the back to make it easier to put on the doll.

• The floral print is reminiscent of the Purple Saxifrage and yellow Arctic Draba flowers that bloom on the Arctic tundra during the brief summer months.
