Tipis - Alternative Sustainable Housing

SAGEBRUSH canvas tipis are Sioux style, constructed of durable, premium-grade materials and reinforced for extra strength at all stress points. We use 10-ounce marine canvas that is pre-shrunk and treated to resist fire, water, and mildew. A heavier 12-ounce canvas is available by special order. Our experience, skill and attention to detail are hallmarks of the finest quality tipis available on the market today.
