Hi guys. My Brother-in-law may be joining us at an event the weekend of September 28th. Were are galvanizing and doing confederate so I am trying to find a cheap jacket or vest for him to use. There are no loaners in his size.

Sutler row quality is perfect in this case. Size 52 (or 54). Preferably untrimmed (but I can always remove it). And by cheap I am talking $25.00 max which would need to include postage. And I'm looking to pay via Paypal.

I know it's a long shot but I thought I'd try.

Thanks!!

Anyone?

I know I'm being cheap and it's a bigger size. ;) But he still hasn't commited to reenacting and doesn't want to spend any money yet - especially on the Confederate side since we are primarily Union.

Any beat up, moth-eaten vest or jacket will do.

Thanks!
Dave

Dave,

Depending on the impression (although I doubt it really matters if you are looking to buy a jacket for $25), might I suggest that you also open up to the possibility of an overshirt...

This would be easier to fit, and you will probably have a better shot procurring one within your budget, due to there being less material, less workmanship and probably cheaper cloth.
