While exact dates are unknown, most contemporary military analysts estimate the Drummerboy Tunic as having been sewn together as early as 2121, in the later stages of the Coalition-Marauder Wars. The Drummerboy, while providing good insulation, offers no storage and relatively minimal comfort. The Drummerboy jacket was designed and put into service by a variety of southern Lake Erie militias (Bargetown included) to act less as a utilitarian and effective uniform, but more so as an identification piece, given that most militias outfitted their soldiers in civilian clothing during the Drummerboy's time. The Drummerboy was created before the Gold Leaf Army began to use their iconic golden maple leaf for identification, and accordingly, many of the existing Drummerboys do not feature the leaf. 

The Drummerboy tunic was used sparingly in the Darkport Wars and early Huron War, and officially phased out of Gold Leaf Army service in 2153. Reservist units and marked men have been rumored to use it up until today.

The Henry & Jameson Model 2139 Uniform is the most long-standing uniform in service with the Gold Leaf Army. The M.39 was initially designed and manufactured by the in-house Henry & Jameson Textile Company in 2139, and was praised by contemporary militarists for its excellent formality while still maintaining utility and excellent insulation. Henry & Jameson ultimately went bankrupt during the Panic of '57, but the M.39 continued production under other aliases. 

The M.39 uniform served the Gold Leaf Army through the entirety of the Darkport Wars, the Huron Wars, and much of the Southpoint-Bargetown War, and thus, it remains an iconic staple of the Gold Leaf Army, but with its phasing out in 2162, it finds itself only used by civilians, marked men, and conscripts — in some rare cases registrars of Bargetown have been seen wearing an upgraded set of these old uniforms.

First manufactured by the Hamilton-originate Burlington Coat Factory in 2163, the No. 3's predecessors saw limited use among the militias of Lake Ontario and northern Lake Erie, before ultimately being refined into the No. 3 Uniform in mid-2164. The now-Hamiltonian Conclave issued stocks of the No.3 uniform out to the various militias across the Coalition, seeking to eliminate accidental friendly fire incidents among the Coalition's militias, some of which wore worryingly similar uniforms to the secessionist New Model Army.

The No. 3 uniforms shipped to Bargetown originally had no golden leaf identifiers, but the Gold Leaf Army's Quartermastery sought out a variety of in-house textile companies to fit these uniforms with their iconic maple-leaf symbol. Today, the No. 3 uniforms serve as the GLA's primary battle uniform.

The Model.62 Coverall's stylistic origins call back to the pre-war coveralls utilized by ship engineers and other deck laborers. While evidently culturally significant, the M.62 is especially useful for the various engineer corps of the Coalition's militias, particularly finding use among the Gold Leaf Army's disruptors, who praise it for its storage space and excellent craftsmanship. It was manufactured and delivered to Bargetown by the Isherwood Supply Company in Cargo City, and began production in 2162.

Bargetown and most of the Eastern Coalition draw massive military influences from the now-defunct Interim Government of Canada. The Coalition has drawn inspiration from any manner of Commonwealth goods, from anything to rifles, uniforms, artillery, armor, and even doctrine. The Commonwealth of Canada and the Great Lakes Coalition were historic trade partners, with Commonwealth goods pouring into the Coalition through the Saint Lawrence and the Welland Canal, and vice versa. Trade between the nations was so perverse that in some regions of Lake Ontario, the huge amounts of trade and the massive amounts of Canadian equipment sold off by refugees leave Coalition militias appearing nearly identical to Canadian Armed Forces units, except with a new shade of brown. The presence of Canadian equipment among the northeastern militias of the Coalition has unfortunately resulted in a few (probably accidental) violent diplomatic incidents with the Northeastern Union.

Bargetown features a few Canadian designed or even Canadian produced uniforms and designs among its ranks, including the C.40 Battle Dress, the Denison smock, the General Service jacket, along with the Mk. V helmet, which is an originally Canadian design. Most of the Canadian surplus Bargetown has is sourced directly from trade with Canadian refugee bands, or are Coalition-produced copies of Canadian equipment, which are mostly manufactured by Isherwood Supply Company in Cargo City.
