There is a little beaded rope for hanging and it has an opening inside the boot. Many were made at the turn of the 20th century when interest in Native American crafts became popular. Most made for the seamstress and the pocket held the needle packets or small sewing tools.
The boot is just over 7" tall without tie and 12" with it.
