Too often living historians let one simple aspect of their impression slide, that is the humble drawers. To the veteran campaigner a pair of good, sturdy, authentic drawers is one of the most valuable items in their impression. Their necessity on a hot day when sweat pours and the road is long and hot has been testified to by hundreds of campaigners, as well as the original veterans. Likewise, on cold night a warm pair of canton flannel drawers can be the difference between shivering on guard duty, or standing warm, comfortable, and alert.
Our reproduction drawers are of a simple civilian pattern, and come in both summer and winter weight. The former are made out of a lightweight 100% cotton material similar, but finer than osnaberg. The winter weight drawers are made out of canton flannel, the durable but soft material preferred by the Federal Quartermaster. Our drawers include a two-button closure at the waist as well as a single fly button, and have the cuffs closed either with ties or a single button. The back belts can be adjusted via a simple tie so that your drawers won't slip down on the march.
