Historical Background
The Confederate Officer Uniform reflects the military attire worn by officers of the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War (1861 to 1865). Uniform styles varied widely due to supply shortages, but officer coats commonly featured finer tailoring, higher-quality fabrics, and distinctive trim that set them apart from enlisted men. The classic grey wool coat became an identifying symbol of the Confederate forces, influenced by earlier militia traditions and practical availability of grey dye.
