The versatile Full Front Frockcoat comes with a standard length skirt. Skirt can be made shorter for less formal occasions. Coat can be ordered with matching collar or velvet can be used in a harmonizing color scheme to the collar alone or to both the collar and cuffs (as shown). It has an inside left breast pocket and two exterior pockets can be added at the waistline for a dashing effect, especially if the velvet trim is ordered. Cloth covered buttons are supplied, but not sewn on. Proper shirt for this coat is the Pleated Front Dress Shirt for dress occasions and the Bleached White Muslin shirt for everyday use. The Full Front Frockcoat was the "dressed up" coat for the common man, while the well-to-do gentleman would have worn this as his "everyday" coat. It is best to suit the elegance of the clothing to the impression that you wish to portray. Our civilian frockcoat is made from quality lighter weight woolens than our military frockcoat.

Periods: The style of these coats changed over time, mostly in the collar, sleeve and body fit. 1800/1816-1830: This has the stand and fall collar, it is cut narrower across the shoulders, a smaller sleeve hole, a more of a tubular sleeve and a more tailored body. When made correctly it is much less comfortable than the 1830 and later coats. We currently do not offer this period of coat. If you are interested, call is to talk about it. 1830-1850 (Dickens and more): This has the rise and fall collar, it is cut narrower across the shoulders, a smaller sleeve hole, a more of a tubular sleeve and a more tailored body. When made correctly it is much less comfortable than the 1850 and later coats. Because most people do not like the true period cut/fit, we modify it somewhat in the body, shoulder and sleeve hole fit to make it more acceptable to modern taste. It is in between the American Civil War fit and the correct earlier fit. 1850 On (Victorian: Civil War / Old West): This is our standard coat. There were style changes to this coat over time, mostly in the collar and lapels. Sometimes there were wide collars and sometimes narrow collars. We cannot cater to the various changes, so we only make the version shown. It has a somewhat wide collar and is most appropriate for 1850 through 1900. Material and Color Samples Page.

Usually in a civilian outfit (but not always), the vest and trousers will be made of the same wool, while the coat is a harmonizing color. Pewter buttons for fly and suspenders are supplied, but not sewn on. ONE front suspender button per side is standard. Select two front suspender buttons per side if desired. Period trousers also have a 1" higher rise than today's blue jeans and should be worn quite loose. The legs are left un-hemmed so that you can hem them the length that you want. The 1890's Trousers were cut in the "peg top" style, meaning the legs were tapered from the crotch to the ankle. Button fly, side seam front pockets and a single back right hip pocket are standard. Suspenders are still worn with these trousers, as belt loops were not added to civilian men's trousers until the 1920s. Flat front is standard, with pleated front offered as an option. Also, an adjusting belt may be added to the back of the trousers.
Available in Wool in various colors and several colors of cotton twill, including khaki. The Grey Stripe Wool material, as shown, is no longer available.
