This Excelsior vest would be a great addition for your mid-19th century men's impression - whether military or civilian focused. This cloth is reproduced in the spirit of the variegated jeans cloth that is seen in different colors from the period and is 50% wool and 50% cotton and custom woven for SUM. Our vests feature the high rise fold down collar that is so prevalent in images from the 1860s and beyond, in our experience seen more in images than the more commonly seen in living history style of the shawl collar vest. Our vest features plan brass dome buttons, hand sewn button holes, and has a lining and backing of brown polished cotton as well as a belted back.
These vests are offered on an in stock basis - if you can add it to your cart, then it is in stock! Take advantage of a unique item that will set your impression one notch up!
