Description:
This historically accurate CS Frock Coat is designed for early-war Washington Artillery reenactors. Crafted in navy blue wool with signature artillery red trim on the collar and cuffs, it captures the distinctive style of the Washington Artillery of New Orleans. The coat comes standard with a muslin lining, an inside pocket, and a skirt pocket for authenticity and convenience. It features a 9-button front adorned with Louisiana buttons, adding to the historical detail.

After the confusion caused by the blue color during battle, these uniforms were changed to Richmond Gray following the First Battle of Bull Run. They were then reserved for special events and ceremonial purposes.
