Approved Vendor Directory
There are several, high-quality manufacturers of suitable clothing, equipment, and weapons throughout the United States. These manufacturers spend endless hours researching the materials, dimensions, and construction methods of original artifacts so that they can ensure their customers that what they are purchasing is as identical to the original item as possible. No corners are cut in the name of convenience, and each item (where applicable) is created, by hand, with great care and attention to detail. The following is a compilation of items you'll need and the vendors we would recommend you purchase these items from. The vendors listed are ones the members of our mess do business with and we recommend each of them as reliable sources for clothing and equipment.

Wambaugh, White & CompanyWambaugh White and Company first started producing garments in the summer of 2000. At that time we did not have the same name, and were little more than a guy sewing Confederate jackets and SA blouses in a basement. Within two years a partner was added, giving us the name we have now, and slowly and steadily the product line was expanded. In the nine years that have passed since the writing of this and the writing of our original “philosophy” statement little has changed in the fundamental principles of our business.
