1 pair Confederate pants, never used. These were ordered from County Cloth / Chas A. Childs as a kit - his "Other Issue" trousers. The kit cost $99 (10% over the usual cost due to size). The kit was assembled by Wendy and Jesse Bailey using machine and hand sewing, for $85. The cloth is #FG Jean. The quality is outstanding. Unfortunately the kit came out too large. I am 53" at the belly button, and you can see these are substantially larger. They measure about 56" around the top of the pants opening, but as you can see from the pictures they are too big for me all the way around. Shirt and suspenders not included.

Price is $165, plus shipping.
