I purchased the Men’s Colonial Militia Coat from Heritage Costumes as the finishing touch to a Cornelius Harnett costume. We are using it to celebrate America 250 at the Alleghany Historical Museum in Sparta, NC. We have a kids history initiative #FlatCornelius. The children are going to love meeting him in real life. Thank you for making it affordable.
Well made, matched description, fits great

Beautiful looking coat for the price! A little slimmer than a conventional large, but otherwise very satisfactory! Thank you!
The coat is exactly as described and very good quality. It is a little tight in the shoulders (I have broad shoulders so this is not a seller error) and the fit in all other places is perfect.

Description
Description
Our Men's Colonial Civilian Militia Coat is a historically accurate replica of the type of coat worn by men during the colonial period in America. Constructed using high-quality polyester gaberdine fabric and fully lined with a poly/cotton broadcloth for added comfort and durability.
The coat is specifically designed to be worn open and is intended to be worn with a waistcoat underneath. The coat features two working pockets, hidden by large pocket flaps, one on each side, decorative shank buttons on one side, and an embroidered, non-working buttonhole.
It is available in 5 color options and 5 sizes. Please note that the shank buttons may differ due to availability.
The coat's purpose during the colonial period was both practical and symbolic, serving as a representation of a man's involvement in the colonial militia. To ensure a longer-lasting garment life, it is recommended that the jacket be dry-cleaned for best results.
