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.
