A note on Confederate issued enlisted uniforms:  There is no evidence that the CSN issued gray uniforms made of any fabric other than Jean Cloth.  They also do not appear to have issued anything but Fly front trousers with side seam or mule ear pockets in Jean Cloth. If the customer wishes a "private purchase", "Tailor Made" uniform of a different fabric, we will be happy to work with you."
