Absolutely fantastic! I am a seamstress but did not have time to make my husband a pair so I ordered these. They arrived very quickly and were absolute perfection. The waist size was small so I went up two sizes and they fit him perfectly. I've always had problems getting them long enough for him because he has a 33 inch inseam and these were way longer than he needed so I had to him them which was no problem. I would recommend these pants in fact I have to other members of my community for this purpose. A plus all the way!

From the material, to the fit, to the button fly, this is an authentic piece of late-19th-century clothing.

I received the pants and found them to be very bulky and wide for my legs. I had envisioned I could wear these pants in the winter casually, but they are more costume quality and oriented so I returned them accordingly.

Sable brushed cotton trousers
Perfect fit (I'm 270 lbs.) 44 inch waist. With these trousers I don't need to wear braces, although I sometimes choose to for the desired look. Most of the trousers I purchase from Historical Emporium I do need to wear braces(not a negative). This just happens to be a pair I don't "need" to if I choose not to. Very, very nice quality, soft material but very heavy and thick. Not a summer trouser.

My husband loved the pants. Seem well made. Fabric very nice. We read other reviews regarding sizing. We ordered two different sizes to insure correct fit. One size up from his normal size was perfect. He's going to look fantastic playing music for the Tennessee Historical Society. I would highly recommend this company and these pants. Nice color.

These looked great and fit well but do need to be shortened and the material was a little heavier than I expected but manageable.

I ordered these from Australia, so there was no returns as far as I'm concerned. I'm glad I took the risk - I'm really happy with the fit, style, and quality. I use them in my professional context (counsellor) where in winter I like to wear a waistcoat under my tweed blazer, and high pants are much better for that. These fit the bill perfectly, and the material complements the other quality fabrics I wear. I normally wear 36 and so I ordered 38, and the fit was spot on.

Exactly what I needed! I perform old time music and needed traditional attire. I was hesitant to buy clothes online but this was spot on. Be sure to measure yourself properly and you will have no problems!!
excellent quality, look and feel. only down side was the length. as a size 32, was advised to order the size 34, which fits perfectly around the waist though requires some serious length trimming. either way, very happy with the product

Excellent pants and quality. You definitely need to order a size or two above your normal pants size as suggested.

I received my first order today, the promptness of which surprised me, moreover, I was delighted at the quality of the merchandise, it being beautifully made and of a far heavier cloth than what I'd expected. I look forward to buying from you again.

As other reviewers have noted, these pants are sized small. Someone recommended going up two sizes and I thought "that's ridiculous". Well, I'm now waiting for my exchange that is two sizes larger than what I wear normally. I would not have even fit in my normal size and one size up may represent period appropriate "fashionably tight" - I really don't know. Despite this the pants are excellent and well made.

These pants are made for comfort. The fabric is extremely soft, though sturdy. They are "high wasted", though all that means is that they come up to your actual waist. As one of my co-workers put it, "It's like a hug all day". They don't restrict movement so if you're looking to buy for LARPs you can't ask for much more. I've bought them originally for a LARP event but now wear them for work and will be using them for a wedding as well. Top quality product, and amazing customer service!
For size fallow the suggested messurments, they are pretty spot on. I'm only going to have to get them hemmed about half an inch.
I also bought the "Livingston Black Brushed Cotton Trousers" and "Classic Canvas Trousers - Brown" same experiance on all of them.
