Civil War undershirts were is use well after the Civil War. A total of 1,130,000 flannel undershirts and 394,000 knit undershirts were in storage in 1865 and this would insure that many US soldiers would wear surplus Civil War undershirt for many years.
The Army also had over 3 million pairs of drawers in storage at the end of the Civil War.
