What are reindeer skin trousers?

Reindeer skin trousers are traditional garments made from the hide of reindeer, typically worn by indigenous peoples in Arctic and subarctic regions, such as the Sámi in Scandinavia. These trousers, known for their durability and insulation properties, are designed to provide warmth in cold climates. They are often hand-sewn and may feature decorative elements or patterns that reflect cultural significance. Reindeer skin is prized for its lightweight yet warm qualities, making it ideal for harsh winter conditions.
