CAPOTES
We now offer two styles
of capotes. They are both made of an entire Hudson-Bay four point blanket, the
highest quality blanket on the market. The capote features a large hood complete
with tails that can be pulled over the face to protect your head in severe
conditions. The large cuff can also be rolled down to cover the hands for extra
warmth. Each capote comes with a tie belt to hold it closed, and two large patch
pockets. All seams are double or triple stitched for added durability. The full
length capote reaches to just below the knee for maximum protection while the
shorter hits at mid-thigh to allow for freedom of movement, for those who will
be wearing the coat In more active situations.
Custom orders can be
placed if you wish. Double backing, sheepskin lining, and fringe are some
examples. The cost of customizing will vary depending upon what needs to be
done. Please allow an extra 2-3 weeks for custom orders.

HUDSON BAY POINT BLANKETS
These blankets are
woven in England of pure wool and are of the finest quality. They have an
exclusive weave and will never fray. Hudson's Bay "Point" blankets
were originally introduced for trade with the natives of an undeveloped
wilderness. Short indigo lines called "Points" meant price. Thus 3½
"Points" meant 3 large and 1 small beaver skins must be traded
for that blanket; 4 "Point” meant 4 beaver skins. Today,
"Points" indicate size.
We offer two Sizes of
Point blankets:
