Question capote question

Does anyone have any historical proof as to when the capote started to become fashionable in the fur trade? I was watching some footage from "Centennial" on the net and the have Robert Conrad wearing one in the late 1700's....didn't think that the capote showed up until later in the fur trade.
Thanks in advance.......
