The gray coat from Numedal was most in use from 1800 to the 1850s. Then the darker round coat took over. Around the 1920s, the gray coat returned and is still in use today. The coat is half-length in white wool fabric and trimmed with green and red. The breeches are in black wool fabric with a large front flap. They are fastened with large brass buttons. The vest is in green wool and has a double row of buttons at the front and pockets at the sides with a button. All buttonholes have red edges.
