The Iroquois Indians used the
pelts of animals for their clothing. In the winter, the men wore
shirts, leggings, and moccasins made of buckskin. Buckskin is
clothing made from the skins of animals, mainly deer. The women wore
skirts they had woven from the wild grasses, covered with furs, with
leggings underneath.. In the summer, the men wore a breechcloth, a
short piece of buckskin that hung from the front to the back of the
Indian. The women wore their grass dresses, and the children wore nothing
at all.
