Getting Dressed | Clothing for a 17th Century Mariner

We hope this video isn't too "sloppy" for you. We are back again with Samantha from our Historic Clothing Shop to show off Aaron's 17th century mariner's clothing. From his slops to his thrum cap, we see how people working on ships during the 17th century dressed for the varying weather that they would encounter.

This video is in memorium of Don Hulick, whose over twenty years at the Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation left a lasting impact on the hearts and minds of staff and visitors alike.
