This shirt has deer skins tied to the lower corners, possibly reflecting the legs of the deer. There are long fringes in a 'V' on the front bib, along the outer length of the arms and on the bottom sides. Short fringe is on the wrist end of the sleeve. The bottom edge is scalloped. A wide band of red ocher is striped vertically down the shirt on either side of the bib.
