Coats from Corner Clothiers

*New Item*

Single Breasted Paletot $300
Our newest coat style is an "update" of the double breasted paletot. The single breasted version has sleeves, collar, and lapels of a style fashionable in the 1860s. It has the same shaped back and side pieces that give it a closer fit than the sack coat

 

 

Sack Coats $250.00
One of the most commonly worn garments throughout the 19th Century, this sack coat was patterned from a 1861 Tailoring diagram. It is fully lined and quilted in the front panel. It has two exterior waist pockets, an exterior breast pocket, and one interior breast pocket. The coat comes with cloth covered buttons. The coat can be cut from wool (lined with cotton sateen) or an unlined version can be made of linen. (Hand felled linen $230, machine felled linen $185).

 

Double Breasted Paletots $310.00

Popular throughout most of the 19th Century, Paletots are an extremely versatile garment that could be worn by nearly all classes for nearly any occasion. They were worn from the 1840s-1890s. The coats are made from wool and are quilted (see inset picture). This coat is based off of Past Patterns pattern. They are without a doubt one of the most under represented garments in the living history hobby! (Hand felled linen $300, machine felled linen $250).

 

 

Frock Coats:
Linen: $350.00
Wool Broadcloth:
start at $650.00
*We are not currently taking orders for wool frock coats*

The frock coat is the quintessential 19th Century garment. Our frock pattern is based off of several originals in our collection and our 1853 tailoring manual. Frocks come in two versions; a unlined summer version made from linen with all the seams hand felled or a fully-lined winter version made from imported wool broadcloth. As frocks are a fitted garment, at least two fittings are required and we recommend that you contact us for more information regarding our frocks.

Overcoats $300

Overcoats were an essential garment for the cold winter months. Our overcoat is the result of studying many photographs and fashion plates, tailors' manuals, and several original over coats. This double breasted oversack is fully lined, quilted through the chest and back, and features a vented tail. It is designed to fit over both our sack coats and paletots. Please contact us for fabric choices and ordering details.
