« A narrow strip of moose skin approximately 166 cm long is identified as a belt for holding up a man's leggings. This suggests that the longer leggings which could be fastened to a belt were worn by men, although Rogers (1967, p. 52) maintains that Mistassini men's and women's leggings were of equal length. »

« Une bande étroite de peau d’orignal d’environ 166 cm de long est identifiée comme une ceinture pour retenir les jambières d’un homme. Cela suggère que les jambières les plus longues qui pouvaient être retenues par une ceinture étaient portées par des hommes, même si Rogers (1967, p. 52) maintient que les jambières des hommes et des femmes de Mistassini étaient de longueurs égales. »
