Metis Voyageur Arrowhead Sash Belt (Red)

The ceinture fléchée, arrow sash, or arrowhead sash, is a traditional piece of French-Canadian clothing of the 19th century. The Métis also made some and used them as part of their national costume. The arrow sash is also one of the famous badges of the voyageur (courreur des bois).

Many popular singers, folklore dancers and especially the Quebec Bonhomme Carnaval contribute to making the ceinture fléchée famous.
