INDIAN
WAR PERIOD AND SPAN-AM PERIOD LEG STRIPES-
Made
out of the same facing wool as the chevrons, these leg stripes are
available for you to add to previously manufactured trousers.
Made in the USA!
Please
specify rank, branch of service
and year you are portraying to get
correct color and size stripes when ordering. Note that in 1872, the
Leg Stripe for Hospital Stewards was 1-1/4" green wool and for Ordnance Dept
was 1-1/4" crimson wool. In 1873, both these branches had white
piping added to their dress coats and dress trousers. Field
trousers for these two branches continued to use the solid color stripe
without white piping.
There is no charge to sew the leg stripes
on your custom made trousers at time of order.
