The brown pinstripe sets the breeches over the top.

I'm a costume designer and I wanted to buy this piece for a character. The product is made of a great material and very high quality y'all! They left me a lovely card thanking me for the purchase, but I should be thanking y'all because of how fast it got here and in such well secured packing. They gave me everything I needed. And they (the knickers) look really GOOD!!

I first discovered Historical Emporium a few years ago when I wanted a special look for my daughter's wedding. This latest purchase is just for an old time look with no special occasion in mind. Bought them 2" bigger than my usual size, as per suggestion, and the fit is perfect. Tailor charged $20 to hem them, so glad I got them on sale!!! Extremely comfortable, cool looking pants!! I'm a repeat customer and selection, prices, and service are always the best!!

Indossati con abiti Belle Epoque da giorno, in occasione di un evento, molto soddisfatto! (Worn with Belle Epoque day clothes, at an event, very satisfied!)

These period clothes will be part of my everyday public wear. I don't care for contemporary fashion at all. Everyone looks the same. As far as the trousers, they're still in alteration for a shorter inseam adjustment so I have yet to wear them.

Edwardian re-enactment

In the winter I play golf in knickers to keep water from wicking up my pant legs. I usually purchase solid color knickers from Golfknickers.com., but I wanted a pair of plaid knickers so I thought i would try Historical Emporium. I am quite impressed with the quality and the fair price of the Black and white knickers that I purchased. Thanks!!

This will be used as formal breeches for Santa of the Woods. My dark red cloak will look

Golf outing and the look was perfect. Very nice material and very comfortable.

Great quality, fast delivery! Pricing a little high, but I'd order from them again.

They are perfect in every way & true to fit!

Very nice period trousers. Fit was excellent according to your guidelines.

I have to dress period

We are members of MAFCA, the Model A Ford Club of America. We drive a 1928 Roadster and like to period dress for events and occasions. These trousers, knickers, shirts etc. from Historical Emporium fit the bill. Even though they are earlier vintage, for working guys, they are still in style for the 20's, 20's and even 40's. The fit is good and the quality high. Love the stuff! We are hosting the MAFCA 2024 National Convention at Ruidoso, NM in June and are rigging up for the festivities with new duds.

I ordered this pair of pants for my new western outfit. It arrived on time and was exactly what I was hoping for! Historical Emporium will always be my goto place, for my historic clothing!

I have been buying Historical Emporium's canvas trouser for years, at first for reenacting, now I wear them all the time. They are the best work pants money can buy. I bought the gray herringbone tweed trousers because I wanted something dressier in the same cut. Once I got them on and saw how they were made and how they fit I bought the rest of the suit at once. You will too.

Excellent fit! Bought the whole suit. Had the trousers hemmed and cuffed by a local tailor, very happy with it all. coat and vest are perfect fits. Good material, wish it would be just a slight bit thicker but overall pleased. Finally a nice suit!

These trousers are part of Historical Emporium's Grey Tweed herringbone collection. As recommended, choose one size larger than your usual waist size because of the way they fit. You definitely need a nice pair of button-on suspenders to go with these, and use them when you're getting them measured for hemming. I had mine done with cuffs. Beautiful, high quality trousers. I plan to buy more articles in this collection.

Be advised that these are unlined.

These pants are great for a historical wardrobe, they are comfortable and historically accurate. A bit baggy around the calves, which could maybe be tightened a bit, but that is a matter of taste.

These trousers are everything!!! Exactly what I was looking for. Perfect fit, I just had to have my tailor hem the length, as they all come with 36" inseam. Well worth the money for a perfectly tailored and unique pair of trousers.

The fabric stretches a bit which made them feel about 2 inches roomier in the waist than the same size Wahmaker, Livingston, Dorian, or Sable Trousers. These do itch a little bit but that goes with the fabric type. The extra lining helps with that. Stitches ripped open on the waist adjuster and outer seams of the front pockets after about 5-6 wears. Took me a couple minutes to fix with a sewing machine and could easily be done by hand. I really liked these after doing so. They'll last a good while. To me they're worth the price.

Perfect fit and most comfortable! Already a favorite item in my daily wardrobe. Unbeatable experience!

So this is part of my work wardrobe, very stylish and very professional looking.Quality is very good and the cloth is very durable.

These were tight. All my other pants are 40" waist, but these 40" were very hard to button closed.

Perfect fit and top quality. Well pleased!

Great fit and construction! I am 6'5" and like my pants on my actual waist (unlike modern pants of today) and these were just the ticket! Plenty long and adjustable! Well worth the price!

Very comfortable, soft denim, and great feel!

Indeed... My wonderful wife is presently out to my tailor to retrieve the said trousers. Other than hemming the legs, the trousers fit well and are exactly as advertised. I'm very pleased with every item I've ordered from these people and I've bought several for my wardrobe. I will wait until my outfit is all together and then I'll send a picture.

Purchased for a show and these are gorgeous!

Theater piece

Their sizing info is on point! And it fits over cowboy boots pretty well!

These are just as described & are true to size! Thanks!

True to size in waist, the leg length however is excessively long, a quality seamstress can fix this, incredibly authentic, I'm an Irishman so fits perfect with my style.

We were very happy with these pants, it was historically accurate to the time period and looked good when it arrived

Great fit and construction! I am 6'5" and like my pants to sit on my actual waist (unlike modern pants of today) and these were just the ticket! Plenty long and adjustable, as well as warm. Nice deep pockets. Well worth the price!

No occasion thank you just wanted to try you guys for the first time. Everything is wonderful thanks & well-made. Definitely use you again although it would be rather nice for you add the cuff & allow buys a choice of inseam measurements- cheers!! Bob Hart - now I'm a right 'Toff'

Great quality fabric and construction.

really love these pants. The detail like the tightener in the back really add to the Victorian feel.I am kind of a public figure in a Victorian village, and a nod to the past without overdoing it is PERFECT for me. Hope to see more things become available.

Fit is true to size, excellent material weight, excellent craftsmanship, very good historical accuracy.

Love these pants ! Quality and fit ! Thank you

I have nothing bad to say about these trousers, they just weren't my taste. They're just too thick and heavy for my personal taste. There is an endless number of what I describe as 'little red dots' within the herringbone pattern. You can't see them in the photo on your web site, but when I saw them I was instantly turned off by them. I am a loyal, dedicated customer and have never before these trousers ever been disappointed, it's NOT "Historical Emporium", it's just specifically that pair of trousers, that's all, no big deal. You guys are still awesome! I asked for an exchange for the Brown 'Grady Striped" trousers that I've had my eye on. I'm hoping that I'll like them when they arrive. The "Sable, brushed cotton trousers, vest, and frock coat are all on my radar... stand by, ok?

Well made, very nice stripe and good, sturdy fabric. These trousers are to be part of a costume for a University theatre department production. Think 1869 England. They worked so well for our Dr. Thanks.

Great new opportunity at Original 1880 Town in South Dakota.

A theater production set in 1890s

Did not like fit.

I have been rebuilding my wardrobe and wanted something unique. The photograph of these trousers does not do them justice! I am extremely happy with the feel and look of the material. Being short however, I had to take them in to be shortened. Other than that, I love these trousers. I will be making more purchases soon.

We will be attending the Avalon Ball in May. I needed to find a pair of period trousers. I didn't think I was going to find what I wanted but when I found your website I found the perfect pair. They are well made and look like they just came out of the 30's and 40's

My husband loves his new trousers. They are very heavy and good quality, and are so fancy!

They look great and fit great around the waist, but I won't really be able to tell till I get them back from the tailors that are hemming them in a week and a half and can actually wear them in public. And are there no laundry directions sewed on the pants themselves? Editor's note: The care tag is inside the right leg seam.

Clothing are top quality , quick dispatch and delivery I'm very well pleased and highly recommend historical to every one , also you are spoiled for choice I'm so glad I found these on the Internet and always use these again. Thk you so much historical emporium

The best part of the purchase was the clear measurement and ordering info. I wear these for CAS.

Sturdy, comfortable, and handsome, these pants are my new daily wear. More colours to follow!
