Carter & Jasper announces the arrival of the much anticipated cotton knit drawers. These drawers are made of muslin colored custom made cotton knit cloth, and faced with cotton muslin. An excellent, period correct alternative to those hot and bulky wool or canton flannel drawers! Summer is coming, the temps are rising, so get these while you can. Once the custom cloth is gone, there won't be any more drawers available. Introductory price is only $65 per pair. Email or call today to take advantage of this offer! Call Carter & Jasper at 615-533-7017 or email carterandjasper@yahoo.com. The drawers are taken from the research of Mr. NJ ************ of Historic Clothiers. Attached pictures show detail of drawers, before the buttons were added.

What does the internal seams-construction look like? I f they aren't too rough, I would like a pair. Sounds like a great alternative for marching.Gregory Deese

Received a pair today.
They look and feel good. No concerns about the internal seems. Much, much lighter than Federal Issue Drawers.

Re: Tired of those hot, scratchy drawers? Cotton knit drawers are here!
At BGR, my Federal issue drawers rubbed my thighs raw and wouldn't stay up. It was so miserable I forgot my feet hurt. I was dreading wearing them again at Shiloh this past weekend. Well, I fixed that problem!
I snagged a pair of these cotton knit babies just last week and they are the shnizzle! :shades_sm I wore them all weekend at Shiloh and loved them. Much, much more comfortable than the issue type! Somebody asked about the seams - these drawers aren't bulky in the crotch like some of the issue versions are, so there isn't any seam rub on the thigh.
And, even though they are cotton knit, I thought they kept my legs plenty warm Saturday evening when the temps dropped down and the wind picked up. I was ready to throw on my issue ones in case I got cold, but finally decided it wouldn't be necessary.
I was so happy with my new drawers I was showing off my underwear, even showing them to a couple of spectators. (Yeah, boys, I showed my drawers to those two chicks, 1) tall and curly and 2) short and blonde, that hung out all day Saturday and came back Sunday. I wish it could have been more ... but I digress.)
Check 'em out, boys! You won't regret it.Joe Smotherman
