Single breasted paletot, front view

SUM's reproduction of the mid 19th century commercially available paletot is a high quality, authentically made paletot that features hand sewn button holes, 1 functioning exterior pockets.  Our reproductions are lined with brown 100% polished cotton.  Paletots of this pattern can be seen in nearly every photograph from the mid 19th century that features men at work or at play.  We are convinced that these paletots can't be beat them for the price and quality.  More expensive does not always mean better and more authentic!    Improve  your impression without breaking the bank! 

If your size and color/fabric combination is not available at the time of order, a wait of 4-6 weeks may be necessary.   

 

Sizing info: this garment is sized similar to modern sport or suit coats, so choose your chest size and keep in mind if you are going to be wearing a vest under the coat.  Also take into account if you have an unusually long or short sleeve length, let us know that information in the customer comments.

    Paletot

    I received my paletot today and was extremely happy with the workmanship and fit. This will greatly add to my impression as a Historical Interpreter. I've ordered a SUM civilian vest as well to complete the outfit! Christmas in February!!!

    I have never been disappointed by anything I have ordered from Chris and this paletot was definitely not an exception. Very well made, great fit, and it looks fantastic. My early war impression just got a huge boost! I cannot recommend enough.

    TOP-NOTCH

    Posted by Eliot M Toscano on 7th Mar 2019

    Per usual, the service was first rate. I have trouble finding "off the rack" in-stock clothing that fits and after a few emails with South Union to verify proper size, the Paletot fits like a glove. Very quick service and shipping. I couldn't be more pleased with the finished product. Many thanks!

    How Do They Do It For This Price?

    Posted by Michael S. on 5th Dec 2018

    My example is a black wool broadcloth Frock with cloth covered buttons. These are Jim Dandy representations of the newly emerging off the rack "Ready Wear" clothing c. 1850's/1860's. As someone who also makes reproduction historical clothing and accouterments, I'm gob smacked that Chris can offer such well made, quality material garments for this low price. I'd charge at least double the amount to be sure. Get them while you can!
