The coats that the Southern Water Tribe wears are commonly known in English as parkas. A parka is a a cold-weather coat that is typically hip-length or longer, stuffed with down, and possessing a fur-lined hood. Parkas are traditionally worn by various Arctic peoples, such as the Inuit/Iñupiat and Yup’ik.
The parkas that Katara and Sokka wear appear to based on traditional Yup’ik and Iñupiat coats, respectively. Note the similar silhouettes, the distinctive fur lining on the sleeve seams, the curved hems with side slits for the legs, and the fur lining around the waist of Katara’s jacket.
The parka that Gran-Gran wears appears to be based off an Akulik Amauti, a baby-carrying coat worn by the Inuit women of Nunavut. Note the extra baggy hood, the straps over the chest, and the straight hem at the bottom of the jacket. It’s an appropriate jacket for a woman who helped raise two generations of children.
Mike and Bryan have also confirmed that the overall aesthetic of the Southern Water Tribe is based off the Inuit film “Atanarjuat: The Fast Runner” (2001), which is steeped in the culture of Nunavut Inuit.
Marvel movies have completely eliminated the concept of practical effects from the movie-watching public’s consciousness

I don't want to share too much here because the first 3 chapters contain some surprises but I could use the help.
