Men wore long breechclouts with flaps of deer hide painted red or black, tight leggings with front seams and garters below the knees and a poncho-like top for cool weather. Short fringes were typical of Winnebago clothing.

Women originally wore a shirt-like deerskin top reaching to the thighs, but by the time of European contact they wore strap-and-sleeve dresses like those of the Ojibwe. Short leggings folded over at the top were commonly worn.

Moccasins were extremely distinctive. They were made in one piece with soft soles and a front seam; those of the women had a very large front cuff that almost completely covered the foot and was decorated with moosehair or porcupine quill embroidery.
