Schuylkill Arsenal
Schuylkill Arsenal Blouse
Schuylkill Arsenal blouses are completely handsewn, as per the originals, with the body being lined with wool flannel (solid, plaid, or checked) and the sleeves being lined in light-weight cotton. The blouses bodies are constructed from indigo, with the facing often being constructed from a slightly different dyed cloth as per some originals.
Price: $275.00
Schuylkill Arsenal Trousers
Like the blouse, Schuylkill Arsenal Trousers are completely handsewn from sky blue or dark blue kesery. The trousers may have rounded-mule-ear pockets or side-seam pockets, with both models retaining a watch pocket. Some trousers had contrasting sky blue waistbands (made from sky blue kesery, but from a different dye lot). This is an option that can be incorporated into the reproduction. The trousers are closed with paper backed tin buttons and marked accordingly to the period sizing charts.

The blouse is closed with keyhole corded buttonholes and Federal eagle buttons.

Federal Private Purchase Clothing
Private Purchase Blouse
A private purchase blouse can be made in a wide variety of styles and cuts, with most featuring additional pockets and more of a civilian fashion than military. The coat can also feature finer details such as extensive quilting, corded buttonholes, silk lining, and velvet collars. These blouses can be based on surviving originals or photographs from the period. As each of these coats are based on individual garments, there is no set price. Please e-mail me at akcampaigner@yahoo.com for more details or if you have a particular coat that you would like me to copy.
