M-1873 ENLISTED FOOT DRESS COAT- for Hospital Stewards, Ordnance and
Engineers- In 1873, the US Army Uniform Board improved the look of
the Dress Coat for the above three service branches by changing the piping to
white from the branch of service color previously used in 1872. This
greatly enhanced the look of these coats but increased the cost because
piping was added in many places where it wasn't used before. Our
reproduction is made using our high quality 16 oz deluxe dark blue wool with a natural corset jean
body lining. Same basic design as the
1872 Foot style Dress coat but the white piping has been used.
Made in the USA!
The Foot soldier's dress coat features a longer skirt and different back trim
design than the Mounted
services dress coat.
The skirt length is about 2" shorter than the Civil War era foot
style Frockcoats. Our Skirt is left raw as per originals. All
Indian War uniforms are custom made for each order.
