IsiNene is the front apron, consisting of coin sized circular skin patches sewn closely together to add weight and cover the male genitals.
iBeshu is the rear apron made from calf skin (from stillborn or dead calves). Those of young men involved in active pursuits are knee length whilst those of the older men are ankle length.
A headband is used only by married men.
