This is the most impressive Confederate jacket I own . The material is beautiful and accurate . Fits perfectly just by simply ordering my coat size , I am 6 foot tall and 230 pounds , I ordered a size 46 and it fits great . Many of my friends who have seen it have also ordered one for themselves as this jacket was issued in several areas for much of the war , it is a good "all around " jacket . I fully recommend having one of these as it a very accurate copy of the original .
