CONFEDERATE 
ISSUE TROUSERS 

CS Army Trousers were based upon civilian patterns, they were a more fashionable cut in general, and were a much depended upon item of the soldier’s kit.

 

Early in the war they were mainly made and provided by folks at home, & by private tailors and mercantile s’ for the young CS Armies. In mid 1862 when the depot system was running at full, capacity the majority of CS trousers were made of jeans cloth, either wool / cotton, or cotton /cotton jeans, and later in the war English Blue Gray Broad Cloth. Some trousers were even made of Indigo Dyed Denim

 

All trousers are complete with hand-sewn buttonholes & either bone, enameled tin, or wood buttons and back belt adjustment trouser buckle, depending on type made.

 

I make these trousers according to the originals using the correct thread, buttons and cloth.
