parka

A parka or anorak is a type of coat with a hood, often lined with fur or faux fur. The hood protects the face from freezing temperatures and wind. The Caribou Inuit invented this kind of garment, originally made from caribou or seal skin, for hunting and kayaking in the frigid Arctic. Some Inuit anoraks require regular coating with fish oil to retain their water resistance.
The words ''anorak'' and ''parka'' have been used interchangeably, but they are somewhat different garments. Strictly speaking, an anorak is a waterproof, hooded, pull-over jacket without a front opening, and sometimes drawstrings at the waist and cuffs, and a parka is a knee-length cold-weather coat, typically stuffed with down or very warm synthetic fiber, and with a fur-lined hood.
==Etymology==
The word ''anorak'' comes from the Kalaallisut word ''anoraq''. It did not appear in English until 1924; an early definition is "a beaded item worn by Greenland women or brides in the 1930s". In the early 1950s it was made from nylon, but changed to poplin by 1959, when it was featured in ''Vogue'' magazine as a fashion item. In 1984, ''The Observer'' used the term to refer to the type of people who wore it and subsequently, in the United Kingdom, it is sometimes used as a mildly derogatory term.
The word ''parka'' is derived from the Nenets language. In the Aleutian Islands the word simply means "animal skin".〔Brewers Dictionary of 20th Century Phrase and Fable〕 It first entered the English written record in a 1625 work by Samual Purchas.
The Inuit who speak Inuktitut use parkas and the Inuit have various terms related to them as follows:
