The highest quality Teepees available - fairly priced
Mukwa Teepees focuses on providing affordable authentic native Teepees at the highest industry standards available in the market. We have often been told and do believe that our style and design is the finest caliber in the market and still our Teepees are not the most expensive! Mukwa Teepees are very reasonably priced.
- Our focus is on cultural rejuvenation, revitalization, and quality.
- Our teepees are warm , dry and weatherproof.
- We use interlocked seams and sewing is done with a locked stitch.
- Aprons, smoke flaps, lifting straps, doorways and hems are all internally reinforced (up to 1600 lbs breaking strength) to withstand the most demanding stresses that a public use teepee would be subjected to.
- Stylish internal gussets reinforce key stress points.
- Doorways are traditionally designed for multistyle use and are wheelchair accessible.
- We use traditional full length lodgepole pine poles.
- Hem loops are made with up to 3600 lb polyester web for durability in strong winds depending on the area that we are shipping to.
WHY Mukwa Teepees is Your best choice
We are retaining our Cultural Traditions that were handed down to us. Our teepees comply with the Native Intellectual and Cultural Property Rights Acts now current laws in Canada.
We are the only teepees manufacturers in Canada who offer warrantees and money-back guarantees on our products.
We have spent 26 years using, testing and modifying our Teepee style on the West Coast to adapt our style to the coastal rain climate.
Through this testing, we’ve found the most suitable canvas and have adapted various features to this type of climate. We are the only manufacturer that has completed this research and testing in the coastal rain forest environment.
Mukwa Teepees has done similar research for the development of design features for our Teepees for the continental interior and east cost climates as well.
