Canadian British Infantry Scarlet Wool Tunic Size 38 Regular

This Canadian British Infantry Scarlet Wool Tunic, sized 38 Regular, is a historical military garment associated with late 19th and early 20th-century British and Commonwealth forces. The tunic is constructed from red wool cloth, a distinctive feature of British infantry uniforms during this era. It features a high, stand-up collar, white piping, and brass buttons engraved with appropriate regimental insignia, reflecting the standard design for line infantry. The garment includes hook-and-eye closures at the collar and internal reinforcement for durability. The rear of the tunic is tailored with buttoned scalloped flaps, and the cuffs are decorated with white accents typical of infantry patterns. This size 38 Regular tunic would have been issued to enlisted personnel of average build. It represents a period when Canadian troops closely followed traditional British Army dress codes, particularly during ceremonies, parades, and early stages of World War I prior to broader adoption of khaki service dress.
