That uniform is almost completely incorrect. The only thing that is close to what the 79th New York wore is the full hose. Literally nothing else is worth a single dollar.
79th never wore leggings, spats with their uniform from 1859-1872
79th never wore plaids or even broches for that matter.
The tartan used is wrong
The original sporrans had 3 tassles, not 4 and fallowed a different cantle pattern.
I could go on, but I think I have made my point.
Ah! I re-read this. Sorry to sound so harsh and judgmental.
