Snowshoes (aagimag) made by the Algonquin and their close relatives the Ojibwe had a distinctive shape with long nose and tail sections, but those made for women had a rounded nose. Ash wood was cut and while still green it was bent carefully into shape, then two cross-pieces (the okwiik and sagaakimehigan) were fitted.
The netting was made of thin strips of rawhide (babiish) woven together in different arrangements.
Incidentally, the plural -ag ending on the Algonquin word for snowshoes (aagimag) indicates that they are classified as "animate" or living things, just like people and animals - presumably because the materials come from trees and animal skins.
