A breechcloth is a long rectangular piece of cloth or soft buckskin. It is worn between the legs and tucked over a belt, so that the flaps fell down in front and behind. Sometimes it is also called a breechclout, loincloth, clout, or just a flap. In most Native American tribes, men used to wear some form of breechclout. The style was different from tribe to tribe. In some tribes, the breechcloth loops outside of the belt and then is tucked into the inside, for a more fitted look. Sometimes the breechcloth is much shorter and a decorated apron panel is attached in front and behind. In a few tribes, women wore fitted breechcloths under their skirts, but not as outerwear. However, in many tribes young girls did wear breechcloths until they became old enough for skirts and dresses.
