This is a robe worn by Oroqen men that is decorated with a cloud motif. It is made of fur from the winter coat of a Siberian roe deer (Capreolus pygargus), and sewn with thread made from the tendons of a roe deer, with a lynx (Lynx lynx) fur collar. The fur trim on the front and around the cuffs has been dyed yellow by boiling it with deadwood. There are slits on the front and back of the robe to make riding and hunting more conveient.
