These epaulettes include the attachment devices, but Rank Insignia and Regimental Disk are extra. The regimental disk must be custom ordered and takes about 12 weeks.

    Medical Officer epaulettes are identical to the Line Officer Epaulettes except they have the gold Wreath and silver M.S. letters in Old English embroidered in the crescent. Different diameters of fringe (and rank insignia) designated the various ranks of surgeon. Epaulettes as worn by Assistant Surgeon (Captain Rank- 1/4" fringe diameter). Two silver bars (per strap) need to be ordered to compete the rank structure. Junior Asst Surgeon (First Lieutenant) with 1/8" fringe diameter is also available (one pair of silver bars should be ordered).

Foot and Mounted Trousers for U.S. (Union)

Enlisted, NCO's and Officers

Item Last Updated: Friday, 15-Mar-2024 13:46:20 MST

U.S. Military Trousers, foot and mounted. M1858 Infantry Sergeant shown.
M1858 Inf. Sgt.
    Both the M-1858 (Dark Blue) and M-1862 (Sky Blue) US Army trousers are offered. Our Union style trousers have the split back with cord tie and comes with side seam pockets. Mule Ear, Dog Ear and USMC French style pockets are available as an extra cost item. Trousers should be worn quite loose. They also have a 1" higher rise than today's blue jeans. Legs are left un-hemmed so that you can hem them the length that you want. Pewter buttons for fly and suspenders are supplied. ONE front suspender button is standard. If two per side are desired, specify and add 50 cents.

    Mounted style has an extra layer of wool in the seat and inner leg area. Standard color is Sky Blue, however, M-1858 model dark blue and Berdan's Green is available on custom order.

    The M-1862 trousers were worn well into the Indian Wars. If you are purchasing them for Indian Wars NCO or Officer use, make sure to specify the appropriate M1872 Trouser stripe.

    For Army Officers: The 1858 Army Regulations called for officer's of all branches to wear Dark Blue trousers with the appropriate branch of service colored cord welt (piping) in the out seam. Generals and Staff Officer's trousers were to be plain without any piping. The 1862 Uniform Regulations changed the trouser color to Sky Blue for line officers (Artillery, Cavalry and Infantry) and continued the branch colored piping. Generals and their staff officers were to continue wearing Dark Blue trousers. However, 1861 Regulations now called for Staff Officer's trousers to have a 1/8" gold metallic piping. General's trousers continued to be plain without any piping.

    For USMC (United States Marine Corps) order the Sky Blue trousers with the USMC pocket and belted back options. For Privates, Corporals, Sergeants and First Sergeants order them without any piping/trouser stripe and for Officer's, Sgt Major, QM Sgt, Drum Major, Chief Musician and Musicians order them with the USMC piping.

    For Veterans Reserve Corps order the Sky Blue trousers with either back option and the Veterans Reserve Corps stripes.

    For Navy Officer's order the Dark Blue trousers with side seam pockets, belted back option and NO piping/trouser stripe.

Civil War Officers Sashes

Item Last Updated: Friday, 15-Mar-2024 13:46:18 MST

Civil War Officers Sash
    From 1852 thru 1872 the US Army Regulations call for officers to wear a silk net sash. US Sergeant Majors, Quartermaster Sergeants, Hospital Stewards and First Sergeants were to wear red wool sashes. The Confederate Army Regulations were the same as the US Army Regulations, except that they added a Yellow Sash for Cavalry Officers.

    The Sash was wrapped twice around the waist and tied at the left hip. The pendant was to extend about 18" below the waist.

    These sashs come in two lengths:
  1. Standard Length: 30" to 40" Waist Size.
  2. Long Length: 42" to 48" Waist Size. Long Length is available in Crimson, Yellow and Buff ONLY.

Officers Cavalry Sabre Belt with Fancy Stitching, U.S. Black Leather
US Officer's Sabre Belt
w/Brass Shoulder Strap Buckle
and Decorative Stitching
      This item was used by both Union and Confederate Mounted troops (Cavalry and Mounted Artillery, etc.), as well as many officers using it for fatigue duty. All saber belts for U.S. troops were black leather. Some Confederate troops had black leather belts, while others had them in russet leather.

    Show as officer's plain version, with brass adjusting buckle on shoulder strap. The is also a fancy version with the brass adjusting buckle on shoulder strap and decorative stitching. Enlisted belts did not have a buckle on the shoulder strap.

    This REPRODUCTION Leather item is Made in the USA. This a quality reproduction item made as close as is modernly possible. Sewing is done by machine to keep costs down (except where hand sewing is required). The leather is oiled, except for the White Buff Leather and the Enameled Leather, (usually Neatsfoot Oil) to protect it, but is usually soaked in by the time you receive it (we do not use Neatsfoot Oil Compound as it can damage stitching).

    Our Russet Leather Oak Tanned Leather. It is not dyed, it is the natural color from the tanning process. Color will vary with lot. It will darken with age. If you want to speed up the process leave it outdoors in the sun on a hot day. Also the more you oil it the darker it will become. There is a very good article about 1800s russet by David Jarnigan and Ken Knopp at www.jarnaginco.com/fair%20leather.pdf.

    Pictures of the item on this page are pictures of the item we sold. All pictures of items we sell are Copyrighted, either by us or our supplier of the item.

    NOTE: Belts should be ordered by WAIST SIZE, not the size over clothing. Belts are made longer (usually 4'') to adjust for going over the coat. If you will NOT be wearing this belt over a coat, then order your belt 2 inches smaller than your waist size.

U.S. M1850 Staff and Field Officers Sword

Item Last Updated: Friday, 15-Mar-2024 13:48:02 MST

US M1850 Staff and Field Officers Sword
    On April 9, 1850, the US Army adopted a standard saber for all staff officers and for the field officers of infantry, artillery and riflemen. Like the foot officer's sword adopted the same day, it was based upon a French sword. It was used until 1872 when the lighter model 1860 became the regulation. The blade is slightly curved and is single edged with a false edge extending back nine inches from the point. It has a wide deep fuller which runs from ricasso to the beginning of the false edge, and there is a narrow fuller above the wide fuller which is about five inches shorter than the wide fuller. The obverse side of the blade is decorated with etched designs which include floral sprays, military trophies, an American eagle and a large ribbon with the motto "E PLURIBUS UNUM". The reverse side also has similar etching with "U S" instead of the eagle and the ribbon. The blade bears the words "IRON PROOF". The pommel and hilt are brass and the grip is wood covered with black leather and wire bound. The scabbard is metal and black with brass mounts.

    Overall length: 38", Blade: 32" by 1 1/8inches wide at the hilt. Weight: 3 lbs. 9 oz.

USMC Officer's Dress Frock Coat (Union) for all officer's except Commandant
    USMC Officer's Full Dress Frockcoat: As described in the 1859 USMC Regulations, all officers (except the commandant) for Full Dress were to wear a double breasted dark blue frockcoat with 8 large Marine buttons in a row, equally spaced, and with a full black cotton lining and natural cotton sleeve lining. Our coat is made using our Deluxe dark blue 16 oz wool as standard, our 19oz field service wool can be substituted for a reduced cost.

    The collar is dark blue and has scarlet edge piping with two loops of 1/2" gold lace and features the open "V" at the throat. Sleeve "slash" is dark blue and piped in scarlet. Length of slash is sized according to the amount of gold lace squares used for the rank of the officer. Field Grade Officer's have four Squares, Captain's three, Lieutenant's two Squares. Back pockets are hidden in the folds of the skirt under pointed flaps with scarlet edge piping. A total of 6 large Marine buttons are on the back of the coat.

    The Marine Officer Full Dress Coat is to be worn with the Gold Epaulettes- same as the Army used, with the correct insignia for each rank. The Epaulettes may be ordered separately and either installed by yourself or us at extra charge. All Marine Officers except the Commandant wore the Crimson Sash. Our reproduction model 1854 US Marine buttons are supplied with this uniform. Either the sky blue wool trousers in winter, or the White Duck trousers in Summer would be worn with this coat.

    Shoulder Boards and Sash (pictured) are NOT included.
