    That one's pretty cool but I just like the look if the brown zouave jacket. Both will be cool to have available once we can customize out character. If they have both types of jackets that is.

    Agreed. I feel like the brown gives a more confederate look. Wouldn't want any mistakes out there.

    That's exactly why most of the soldiers chose to dye their jackets, because of a friendly fire incident that happened earlier in the war. Definitely a smart thing to do.

    the only thing I don't like about the brown is it looks leathery and I hate the leathery look, Also IDK if it is true because my source was the book "Lincolns Life or a Tigers Death" but it said the freshly dyed coats smelled terrible for a long time because of what they used to dye it.
