Just as in other Plateau groups the women were entirely responsible for the home, for cooking, making clothing, preparing animal hides and furs, taking care of the children, collecting water and fuel for the fires, decorating moccasins and other garments, butchering animals killed by the hunters and transporting the meat back to camp, looking after the camp dogs and producing basket hats and woven bags.

Women would sew the covers for the tipis used by the hunters when away from camp.

Nez Perce women's hats and bags were very distinctive and always included traditional patterns in coloured fibres.
