Canadian Highland Regiment Patrol Jacket Named

The Canadian Highland Regiment Patrol Jacket is a military uniform component historically associated with regiments of Scottish heritage within the Canadian forces. This example is identified with an individual name, indicating prior issue to a specific soldier or officer. The jacket follows traditional British Army patrol dress design, featuring dark blue wool fabric, a tailored body, and stand collar. It typically includes ornate piping, braid, or frogging consistent with Highland regimental patterns, as well as decorative buttons marked with regimental insignia. Such jackets were commonly worn in the late 19th to early 20th centuries for semi-formal duties, ceremonies, or parades, distinguishing Highland regiments from other units by their unique sartorial details. Named uniforms of this type provide valuable research opportunities for collectors and historians, regarding both military history and individual service records within Canada’s Scottish-heritage regiments. Condition, insignia, and any provenance enhance its significance as an original military artifact.
