Males of the subspecies-Capra sibirica sakeen, which lives in the Pamirs, as a rule, have a dark brown, almost black color of the upper body. The head, neck, upper back, and sides with the forelimbs are brown, the bones of the forelimbs and hind limbs have black hair bands, and in the area of the hock the hair color is whitish-gray. Lower body-chest and abdomen lighter than back. The tail is dark brown to blackish, with a small mirror of light hair around the root of the tail. The beard is brown-brown with a length of 10-15cm. In older males (about 10 years old) there are peculiar sideburns that are connected to the beard.
Starting at the age of four, they have a white spot on their back (saddle), which increases with age and contrasts sharply with the surrounding color. From the age of eight, some people have a second, small white spot on their neck.
