Grey wool coat with black trim. Trim on coat is in the shape of clovers. Two small clovers on collar tips. One large one on each arm near the wrist; one medium size clover on each side of the waist along an inverted V-shaped cut. One medium sized one on the back of the coat. Two black fabric (wool) covered buttons on each cuff. Five larger buttons down the front of the coat. Each shoulder has a small epaulet consisting of a gold rope in an S-shape coiled at both ends.
These uniforms are very similar to West Point cadet uniforms.
