Welcome to Civil War Sutler
We would like to welcome you to the Civil War Sutler and Frontier Clothing website.
We supply good quality historically accurate 19th Century clothing and accoutrement’s at competitive prices for the re-enactor as well as collectors. We also have been suppliers of clothing and assistance to the film and theatre industries around the world.
We are always expanding our products as this is an ongoing process as we gain more information from our historical researchers in the USA and as such if you are looking for something specific we can usually source most items for this period in history.
