Sea Sámi gákti

What aspects of your cultural heritage are you most proud of or interested in?

So I’m writing about the traditional clothing now, I want to get one made for me and they are made with great care and skill. Plus it’s really really expensive because they are special and often have unique spiritual meaning to the culture. I’m of Sámi ethnicity on both parents sides, my mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and me are/were in samemanntallet/Sametingets valgmantall we could vote in Sametingsvalget including this years elections.

I really love this very beautiful gákti, it’s not mine. I want one. I especially like the green-blue, red and yellow colours, design and the shape, slightly modern feeling as well.

Also like these. The pictures are not mine, I found it online for this dailyprompt answer.
