Edgar Allan Poe normally wore a black wool suit, but it had been changed to one of cheap gabardine. One account described Poe's clothing this way: "a rusty, almost brimless, tattered and ribbonless palmleaf hat. His clothing consisted of a sack-coat of thin and sleazy black alpaca, ripped more or less at several of its seams, and faded and soiled, and pants of a steel-mixed pattern of caseinate, half-worn and badly-fitting, if they could be said to fit at all. He wore neither vest nor neck-cloth, while the bosom of his shirt was both crumpled and badly soiled. On his feet were boots of coarse material, and giving no sign of having been blackened for a long time, if at all" (Dr. J. E. Snodgrass, "The Facts of Poe's Death and Burial," p. 284).

Poe left the University of Virginia in December 1826. He states than Mr. Allan did not sent him enough money. Mr. Allan had no obligation to pay Poe's debts so this is a excuse.
