Dressing for Winter: A Lower-Middling Class Man's Clothing in the 1820s

The second video in our dressing series. It is intended to show clothing worn by a lower to middling class man during the winter months in the early 19th century. Working-class clothing was more utilitarian in nature than the upper classes. Layers of wool, silk, linen, and cotton provided the first defense against the winter cold.
