     Getting started from scratch can get costly.  First, if you've already been reenacting whatever uniform you have will be sufficient.  If you are a novice then here is what uniform we'd like to see
 
  • Gray Jean cloth trousers.
  • Gray Jean cloth sack coat or shell jacket w/block "A" buttons.
  • Gray or White Woolen socks.
  • White Cotton boxer drawers. (Note: briefs are not good because wool will eat you alive.)
  • Cotton shirts in white, muslin, period plaids, or red battle shirts.
  • Vests are optional.  (Gray/Butternut.)
  • Brogans are less expensive than boots so we'd advise starting out with brogans.
  • Hats can be slouch hats, forage caps, or kepi's. 
  • Black Leather Haversack.
  • Black Belt with a CSA buckle or a USA buckle that can be worn upside down when doing a Confederate impression.
  •
