The uniform of the Federal Contingent is inspired by the models of the Royal Dutch Army, but is manufactured in Luxembourg. The local production of uniforms was intended to give new impetus to cloth making in the Grand Duchy, a tradition dating back to the 18th century. The manufacture and delivery of large quantities of fabric represented a major challenge for small companies in Luxembourg, Wiltz, Esch-sur-Sûre, Vianden, Echternach, and Fels. After a few years, production met military requirements and continued beyond the dissolution of the rifle battalions until the end of the 19th century. Uniforms, shakos, fabric samples, portraits, and lithographs bear witness to this evolution.
