Alaskan Native Robert Miller is keeping the ancient tradition of his Tlingit ancestors alive with his Sitka-based business, Sea Fur Sewing. Sea Fur Sewing sells highly functional, custom-crafted, Indigenous outerwear out of seal, sea otter, beaver, wolf and fox fur.
Whether hunting sea otters in the Sitka Sound or tanning and sewing their hides in his workshop, Robert puts great care and attention into his craft at every level of production.
