I was nervous ordering without actually seeing the items. But no worries. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The trousers I ordered are top of the line! I was also nervous about the sizing. But if you follow the directions you wont be disappointed. My grandsons wear different sizes but the directions say to go by the upper waist measurement only. So I did exactly that. One grandson wears a 34' in pants, but that is not what you should order. Because he actually measured 36' three inches about his waist. So I ordered a 36. They fit him perfectly! Another one wore at 34 in pants too, but measured 38' three inches above his waist. Again perfect fit! These trousers have a few inches of ease built into them, just like ever other pair of pants. Which you will need if you plan to walk sit or bend. So do not order you normally size. Order your measured size three inches above the waist for a comfortable fit. These trousers are the best I've come across. They are extremely well made and will last a life time for civil war reenacting. The only thing I have to do is remove the sewn on tag on the back. I also order suspenders. They were perfect as well! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
