Real Alaskans wear parkas

Article Abstract:

The harshness of the Alaskan winter makes it necessary for Alaskans to wear bulky parkas despite their lack of fashion sense. Temperatures can drop to below 80 degrees and parkas can be very bulky because of the cold that function is more important than fashion.
