I looked at that same site recently when looking for clothes around the 1900-1910 period . I was looking for something that would have been period correct for the time my Parker was made (1902) . Looking at photos of hunters from back then . It seems they wore whatever clothes they wanted . I have never been big on camo .

I will wait until someone dies and leaves me their "togs" before I dress appropriately for a driven grouse shoot. "The Lovely Linda" has told me that Filson, Carhartt and Barbour bird hunting stuff has to be sold off before wool Vintager gear can take its place.

A light weight creme colored linen three piece suit, a nice vintage necktie, a light cotton French cuff shirt, off white and brown correspondents shoes, and a straw Optimo creased straw hat would be the perfect summer shooting attire for an American. Forget the Brits, this is the United States.

Also a three piece Seersucker suit would be another way to go.
