In this paper, the emphasis is on a shorter male and female woolen coat, rekla, produced by a complex process of knitting and rolling. Based on the polysystem theory, the aim of this paper is to present reklas in contemporary clothing of Eastern Croatia. The initial research consisted of critical reading of the literature and the analysis of media discourse. When it comes to institutions and producers, the research was limited to the Vukovar-Srijem County, therefore semi-structured interviews were conducted in museums in Vinkovci and Županja and on premises of „Valens” and „Rukotvorine Benčević" craft workshops. The consumers’ aspect, which includes the habit of buying and wearing coats in everyday life, includes buyers from the wider area of Slavonia. In addition, for the needs of the research, ethno fair in Vukovar, event Carnival riding in Vinkovci and gift gallery "Fantazija" in Vukovar were visited. It is concluded that museums help in the reconstruction and renewal of rolled coats and that 60 years ago the rolling process was replaced by a computer process of making replicas. Except for the change in technique, there has been a significant change in materials, cuts, colors, patterns and products. Today, replica coats represent modern and everyday item of clothing that expresses Slavonian, šokački, identity.
