Civil War Union Officer Uniform Costume - 3.5 out of 5 stars from 2 customer reviews


Ok for Halloween or a costume party
I bought this for Halloween costume is ok for Halloween or a costume party, but if you're looking for it to be a little closer to the actual uniforms then it's not very realistic. The shade of blue depicted in the picture looks a little closer to the shade actually used one the real uniforms, the shade of blue on the actual costume looks more like I should put on a red cape and an S shield on the chest and go as Superman the doorman. It's more of a web color royal blue or an azure blue rather than the dark blue that was actually the regulated color. And that's not the only color problem. The cuffs and colar are a brownish color when they should be blue as well.

The buttons are gold colored with an eagle and shield motif on them. That's nice for the appearance of the costume. But their floppy, I was afraid I'd pop a button when I tried this on. Yeah this is a costume that you may wear just once (maybe twice), or even just once a year. But you really don't want to have one of...

It worked
Couple days later than estimated, but arrived in time for the play. It was a fair value for price. Actual color brighter than pictured.
