The Saami Council, an organization representing indigenous people from Finland, Russia, Norway, and Sweden, is calling on Square Enix to "immediately remove" Final Fantasy XIV's Northern Attire cosmetic set from the game, claiming the items as Sámi cultural property.

The Northern Attire set consists of boots, gloves, tunic, bottoms, and a hat for Square Enix's popular MMORPG that can currently be purchased from its in-game shop for $18. Square Enix describes the item set as sporting "gorgeous, traditional embroidery hand-stitched by professional artisans," and says players can use it to "weather the winter in comfort and style."

The Saami Council has taken issue with the set, which looks to be heavily inspired by traditional Sámi clothing but without the council's consent, and is demanding it be removed from the game.
