Kwäday Dän Ts’ìnchi was wearing garments that had been carefully made from animal skins — a robe or cloak and leggings, as well as a hat.

The skins used in the clothing came from multiple species: gopher, ground squirrel, and, analyses would later establish, a variety of other animals.

The construction of the garments reflected skilled craftsmanship — stitching techniques, material choices, and design elements that specialists in ethnographic clothing traditions of the Northwest Coast and interior subarctic could recognize as consistent with known Indigenous sewing and hide-working traditions of the region.

The hat — a conical woven hat — was particularly significant because it was consistent with a style associated with coastal Tlingit and related peoples, rather than with the interior traditions most associated with the Champagne and Aishihik territory.
