Subject: MtMan-List: MtMan clothing question
Date: Monday, November 16, 1998 7:53 AM
Hello Everyone!
I am interested in information regarding the range of "tailoring" talents,
techniques, fabrics, materials, details, etc., of mountain men past and
present. Would it be correct to assume that most MtMen sewed some, if not
all, of their own garments? If so, what materials did they use, construction
techniques, and embellishments, other? What special characteristics are found
in the MtMan’s "wardrobe" which makes it particularly serviceable,
interesting, appealing, unique? What are the clothing items specific to the
MtMan? When the Mt.Man’s garments are examined, were any hidden pockets or
compartments found, or any other interesting details?
I am looking forward to your replies as I am sure many of you are very
knowledgeable in this area. Thank you very much.
Best regards,
