Luke,

Where did you get your regimental waistkit and coat?

Thanks much

The laced waistcoat was one that I picked up in a trade. It was 40th of Foot out of Canada. Wool is rather thin, and its linen lined. I switched out the lace and shortened it for wear with the 42nd. The Unlaced buff faced coat was bespoke, Woolrich wool and K&P bay/broadcloth lining and cuffs , the unlaced madder and buff faced red drummers coat are K&P wool, I made with the pattern that was part of the deal on the bespoke coat.
