60th Alabama Commutation Frock Coat - Trimmed

By far the most generic of Confederate garments, the untrimmed Confederate frock coat is seen from the opening months of 1861 to the trenches of Petersburg. While not an official staple of the Southern depot system, the privately acquired frocks (both through the Commutation System and direct means) were seen amongst all of the armies of the Confederacy. This example is based on a surviving period image from the 60th Alabama Infantry. The frock coat is trimmed on only the collar, with the cuffs being without trim. The overall construction and pattern is similar to other known Alabama frock coats and has been replicated. Lining material may vary.
