Brown Winter Coat
Sterling is wearing a double-breasted (two sets of buttons) wool Chesterfield coat from about the 1890s. A Chesterfield coat is one with a velvet collar, a style that is still seen on some jackets or coats today, though now mostly on those designed for girls and women. this coat is in the textile collection of the Wisconsin Historical Society.

Although not actually worn by Sterling North, these outfits are the kind of clothing he might have worn while growing up in 1918's Wisconsin.
