Description

Made of our custom run reproduction English Army Cloth. The wool fiber was selected, the fiber was dyed, spun into yarn, woven and finished specifically for this reproduction cloth. In making this reproduction we did not overlook the importance of wool selection. We chose wool fiber that would give the fabric the proper hand when finished rather than the hand of modern men's suiting. It is made of a mix of blue and white 100% wool. It matches the weight required in the period contracts per Richard Milstead’s research. Properly finished to hold a raw cut edge.

Richmond Depot Type II

six piece body, two piece sleeves, nonbuttoning beltloops, nonbuttoning epaulettes, our standard finished RDII has the typical nine button closure with a button affixed through each shoulder strap. They are lined in our custom run premium cotton osnaburg and have one inside pocket on the man's proper left side. We recommend the rounded collar option for a type II.

Richmond Depot Type III

six piece body, two piece sleeves our standard finished RDIII has the typical nine button closure. They are lined in our custom run premium cotton osnaburg and have one inside pocket on the man's proper left side. We recommend the squared collar option for a type III

What is a Jacket Blank?

Blanks are garments that are completely put together, but with no button holes or top stitching. A blank is wearable when you receive it. It is not a bundle of pieces that have to be sorted out and joined together. You will know that a blank is a fit before doing a lot of work on it only to find it does not fit and cannot be returned. It is enough for many customers to put their effort in the hand finishing of the garment.

To finish a jacket blank you will need to

add buttons
Stitch the button holes
turn under and whip stitch about 6" of the lining to the jacket
top stitching if you wish
set the sleeve linings
sew the belt loops on (Type II)

These blank jackets includes logwood thread for finishing.

What is a Finished Jacket?

If you choose to order a finished jacket we will hand sew your button holes and sew the buttons on (if you choose to include buttons). We will hand stitch the lining closed at the neck, hand set the sleeve linings, sew the belt loops on (Type II) and provide the top stitching option you choose. All of the hand stitched details for finished jackets will be sewn with logwood thread. The jacket will be ready to wear when you receive it. If you wish to have the buttonholes sewn for you but want to hand topstitch your jacket please choose the no top stitching option. You may also choose this option if you just prefer to have no top stitching on your jacket.

Please note: There is an additional 2 weeks lead time required for tall lengths, short lengths and the squared collar option.
