M-1885 ENLISTED GREATCOAT- In
1885 in an effort to get less color variation from dye lot to dye lot in
the lighter blue wool used for trousers and greatcoats, the Army changed the “old
standard” sky blue wool (still left over from the Civil War era) to a new darker shade- closer
to a Royal Blue.
This greatcoat is made from our quality heavy weight Medium Blue
wool, with a detachable cape and colored cape lining to denote branch of service. The coat has
a dark blue wool body lining to the waist, cotton sleeve linings and two inside pockets.
The “new style” 1883 buttons are supplied but not sewn on. Made in the USA!
All
Indian War uniforms are custom made for each order.
