Issued in a time when uniform meant identity, discipline, and belonging.
The Union enlisted infantry frock coat, standardized in the years surrounding 1858, became a defining garment of the Federal soldier during the American Civil War. Its dark blue wool construction, trimmed with light-blue piping, signified infantry service—instantly recognizable within the structure of the Union Army.
Unlike later simplified field garments, the frock coat carried a more formal silhouette. The nine-button front, structured body, and full lining reflect a balance between military presentation and practical durability. It was worn in formation, on march, and in moments where order had to be visible.
This reproduction follows original specifications in both material and construction, preserving not only the look—but the intent behind it.
A garment of regulation.
A symbol of service.
A record of its time.
