Our 19th Century Single Breasted Frock Coat is a historically styled reproduction of the men's frock coats worn throughout the mid-19th century. Designed for Civil War reenactment, living history, historical interpretation, and civilian impressions, this coat is patterned from original photographs and period tailoring manuals.

This single breasted frock coat works particularly well for a wide variety of 19th-century civilian impressions, including doctors, merchants, professionals, tradesmen, businessmen, and other middle-class American men. Depending on your cloth, color, buttons, and accessories, it can be used for impressions ranging from the 1830s through the Civil War era and into the later 19th century.

 

The coat features three exterior pockets, a polished cotton lining, split-tail skirt, and hand-sewn buttonholes. Choose from a wide range of wool, linen, tweed, and wool-cotton jeans cloth options, along with several period-style button and collar choices.

We normally do not maintain a stock of a wide variety of sizes of this garment, thus please accept an approximate wait of 6-8 weeks for completion of your garment, unless otherwise stated by SUM.

    I ordered a custom piece, an 1830 style garment. It arrived well within the time promised and the fit and construction are fine. I will upload some photos to the SUM Facebook page.

    I purchased the natural linen frock coat. It fit perfectly. The lining hides dark clothing worn underneath it. One of the best purchases I made.

    Can not express how happy I am with the frock coat I purchased from SUM, the special requests were readily accepted and I received the most beautifully tailored garment I have ever laid my eyes on! The cut was fantastic and authentic to the period, it was snug and had all the right details, all for a very affordable price. Could not be happier!

    Single breasted frock coat

    Posted by Tim from Germany on 30th May 2021

    This is my third coat from SUM and this one is absolutely stunning. I took it in dark Green and I love this color. This coat has a super cool cut and fits like a glove. Its made from thick quality wool and everything is correct and well made. In comparison to the double breasted frock coat this one is more snug in every area and reaches to the knees - the double breasted one is shorter and roomier. This one is like directly tailored on your body if you got the right size, just perfect! Thanks.

    quality of workmanship

    Posted by Dan Wykes on 21st Sep 2020

    This coat was ordered in linen, yet retained the form and fall of tailored wool -- no odd wrinkles in shoulders. Lining and pockets all lay correctly. A careful ironing was all that was needed before use.
