This is my second order for this pant style, needed a new color. Shipping was quick and the pants fit very well, got lots of compliments on them.

Great pants better then pictured on website. Will buy more from here when able.

These 19th century western trousers fit well and look great! But the standard 36 inch inseam is in need of cutting back to 28 inches or so. We're not all 6'6"!

As a cowboy action shooter, these pants will add a bit of flash to my outfits, good quality great color. Can't wait to get to a shoot with these.

It is a nice product. Unfortunately, ordered two-size larger than I need. Will send it back for exchanged.

Love these pants! Great fit and it sits on the waist perfectly. Great color scheme and very durable. I will continue to purchase for them.

I have been wearing heavy canvas pants with suspenders for 10 years while operating a historically accurate canal boat. Heat and the bulk of the pants have made them unbearable. My new lightweight cotton period pants have allowed for easier movement and less suffering from the heat.

These trousers are perfect for our upcoming production of "Newsies!" They fit well and are perfect for the end of the Victorian period.

They fit well (with suspenders of course) and the material is very good quality, and very comfortable.

I bought these trousers as a sample first purchase before I dove in all the way on my Tombbstone/Doc Holliday/Val Kilmer outfit for my annual Halloween party. The quality and fit are excellent. I then ordered the rest of the outfit (Historical Emporium has the product lineup to essentially recreate one of the Doc outfits). Also excellent. I recommend their products. Very pleased. Customer support is also very friendly.

Very quick response arrival of package only took a couple days and was exactly what I was looking for

They fit great! I am going to wear them as much as I can!

These are very accurate reproduction trousers from the 20's and 30's. Real fabric! They do, however, need to be hemmed up as any fine pair of pants would be. So you will need a seamstress. I love how authentic the costumes are from Historical Emporium

I'm super impressed with the quality of the fabric. It's soft, thick, luxurious. They are right- the fit is pretty snug for the size and the waist is outrageously high... both really work for the historical look, but it's something a bit different from the norm so be aware.

I purchase these trousers every chance I get! I use them for all kinds of shows and characters and I love adding them to the costume stock. They fit, wear extremely well and actors love them! True to size. Purchase with confidence!!!!!

I got so many great complements on these pants. I did have to have the legs hemmed, but that wasn't really a problem. The pants size matched what I ordered, and they fit great.

I was surprised when these pants arrived to see how long they were. My actor was not available to try them on so I had them shortened to his measurements and they fit perfectly. The rise is very long in these pants but they look wonderful. Don't be dismayed when you get them by how long they are.

Pretty much the same as the review for the Summerhill pants. The color combination for the Chadwick outfit fits what i wanted and needed for performing in the park. Do wish there was a spat option to really make the look.

The item ordered was not only just as described, but delivered very qiuckly! I highly recommend Historical Emporium!

I found out that just ordering a size up is enough for the high waist. I initially ordered up too much, and they were way to big. Once I got the right size, and had the length altered, these pants fit great. I received many compliments on the styling. Well made, heavy material, and the lines at the seams matched nicely. And, a big shout out the the folks at Historical Emporium for excellent service. They were wonderful and easy to work with when taking care of my swap for the right size.

I'm part of a steampunk organization and these trousers fit perfect - the exact size ordered, not over or under-sized. You will need to hem the legs though - they are super long!

The pants fit perfect. Thought I would never see a button fly again.

Comfy and stylish, a great pair of trousers.

Although quite long, as the description states, I am without a doubt extremely satisfied with these pants! It is literally the best money spent on a pair of pants in my lifetime. The fact that they sit higher on ones pelvis crests (waist) gives a comfortable feel. And I like that I can down the road purchases real suspenders. Even without suspenders the pants do not fall due to the tensioning strap in the lower back.

Customers, These pants will be a nice addition to our costume stock. Nice period colors Theatre girl

Great compliment to the matching vest and frock coat. Pants are a snug fit on your waist, so if you want them loose, go up a size. Braces will hold them. Legs are straight but not skinny jeans type.

I ordered these as a present for my boyfriend. When they came they were even better quality than I expected and he loved them! We are very satisfied with Gentlemen's Emporium.

I like the quality, fit and weight of the material very much. I operate a very fast paced, busy hot dog cart. I wore these pants and the matching vest in 95 degree weather and it was very workable(especially the trousers). Very happy with this purchase.

My review for the matching vest is pretty much the same for the pants. They fit well and are comfortable. Combined with the vest and spats it give me one of the costumes I use for park/busking magic show.

Once I got the right suspenders, these trousers fit splendidly. They ride high compared to modern fashion, but that design is arguably more comfortable and less constraining than wearing a belt. The length and fit were perfect (I'm 5'11")—no adjustment needed. Prepare to spend time ironing!

I was impressed by the quality of these trousers. They're a functional clothing item made out of thick material and made to last. This is not a cheaply made throw-away costume piece! Note that for me, these trousers ran a little small: a 34-inch waist fit me better than my usual 32-inch. I give these trousers 4 stars instead of 5 only because of the visible brand-tag stitched on the outside, above the seat: such advertising threatens to break the illusion that a period piece like this is intended to create.

Wonderful call quality. Very sturdy pants. Wonderful striped embroidered stitching.

I ordered this, and the matching vest, for a festival here in historic Scenery Hill, PA where we celebrated the first 100 years (1785-1885) and yes this was a little later time period but I and everyone loved it. I was the tour guide through the Historic District and many remarked on my clothes. Our Heritage Festival was a hit and this outfit is sure to be used several times a year for other events and festivals in our village.

I bought these for their look with little hope for their comfort. I am pleasantly surprised to find these trousers are comfortable in addition to looking sharp. Because these are built to historical standards and have a higher rise than modern pants, I followed the advice about ordering a size larger than one normally wears. Well, actually I screwed up entirely and ordered 4 sizes larger than I intended, but a quick e-mail to customer service fixed that without any delay. So I am pleased with the trousers and very pleased with the customer service. For anyone who is unfamiliar with ordering trousers like these, you will be taking them to your tailor for hemming. They have a hem, but for an extremely long leg length. This is a feature, not a problem! A tailor will give you just the length and "break" you like for the shoes you will likely be wearing. Pre-set inseam lengths cannot do this as well. The end result is delightful. I wish I could get a version of these with some stretchy fabric incorporated to make dancing a tiny bit easier. That would not be historically accurate, but would be convenient. Please do not think of this as a complaint about these pants. That would be another product. These trousers are marvelous.

top quality pants, nice long leg which is good as i need it being 6'6"

very happy. great quality and fast shipping

These fit wonderfully...I have trouble finding regular clothes that fit...it was a real treat to find costuming that works without a lot of tailoring. Thank you.

Very comfortable and fun to wear. The vertical stripes make you look taller and slimmer! I would suggest buying suspenders to go with them.

I purchased these with the matching vest. The first time I wore the vest, I wore white ducks as these were being hemmed. When I did wear them together, I received numerous compliments, such as, "Smashing!" They are very comfortable and easy to care for. I ordered one size larger, as suggested, and they fit perfectly. A terrific set.

These are a quality pair of pants. Worked great for my need. Love them.

The trousers did have to be taken up as stated. The stripes look nice and the material is of good quality. The fit of the trousers are comfortable all around.

These run very small!! Had to send them back. Kind of shaped weird also. Other than that quality good.

Just what I was looking for to complete my outfit! Wonderful product!

Pants are a most if like pinstripes as I do and also seem really well made. Do come long but nothing a few stitches won't fix.

These are a great quality product. They look and feel amazing. Like stepping into a different era when i wear them. I am completely happy with my purchase.

These pants ran incredibly small on the waist and were almost obscenely long. It is a shame because the design is so beautiful.

great they are pretty and classic.

Just what I wanted.

the comments I got with the trousers stunned me. They are beautiful, comfortable and high quality. This is why I only shop for cloths at the Emporium. I wear the styles every day and they start the test of use very, very well.

Great! I bought a 36", normally wear a 34". Fit great. Was still a good looking trim enough look. Used hem tape and a couple pins for length adjust. Added suspenders and a hat. Was well dressed for a 20's party.

I don't know if you all could've done this, but if the pants could've come pre-hemmed that would have been perfection. Unfortunately I didn't even think to ask.

This is the 5th pair of trousers I have purchased from Historical Emporium. Always good quality. Are exactly what is advertised. Wear well and always get compliments.

Awesome pants. They fit my waist perfectly. A little long but easy to hem. Quality fabric and quick shipping.

love the quality, however they seem way to big. would like to return

The second time I wore these trousers the crotch seam ripped without any strenuous movement, there was a hole about 2 inches long that I had to fix. These look nice and are comfortable but the stitch quality is poor.

i had a par just like these but got to fat so had to get an other pair this or very very good pants

Perfectly authentic replica! Cannot help but attract attention while out around town, but still comfortable and durable for daily chores. Easy to take care of as well! Thanks for the "heads up" on the inseam, I had my sewing machine by the ready, and hemmed them to the perfect length.

I was cast in the local community college's Advanced Cinematography movie as a western bartender. These trousers really set off my wardrobe! Got a lot of compliments from cast and crew (some of the others' wardrobe wasn't very "period.")

Great looking, great fit, service couldn't have been better.

Great looking, great fit, service couldn't have been better.

love the pants, i wish i could buy pants at the store with suspender buttons

I can't wait for my first opportunity to stroll out in these. Very pleased.

Quick delivery and great fit. I am very pleased.

The product was exactly what I was seeking.

Got these for a cosplay, they match the style and look exactly for what I was going for, and the material is great, they're more durable feeling then my actual work pants!

I am gradually converting my everyday wardrobe to 19th century trousers from Historical Emporium---they seem to work for most occasions and I get lots of compliments and queries about them.

Great fit, comfortable to wear. A big addition to my collection

I was looking for something I could wear to a wedding that would also be the basis for a Steampunk outfit. These pants are great quality and are perfect for what I want.

These pants are perfect! They arrived quicker than expected. Workmanship and over quality is excellent. Super happy with this purchase. We are using them for an 1800's era Opera production; they would be great for any period look 1800 - early 1900.

These are first-class trousers, made of a very thick cotton. All sewing and buttons are top notch. Regarding sizing, I wear Levi's in a 33 waist, but followed the instructions and ordered a 36 pair of Ludlows. Waaaay too big. Reordered a 34 which fit perfectly! Fantastic purchase!

The web site recommends (in many cases) to order one size up, but that was not true my case. I am currently exchanging for my normal waist size but I'm sure I'm going to love them.

Perfect fit. Nice fabric. They look good!

This is a part of my finer clothes, and is in use in speciall times

I followed the instructions for determining my size, ordered 36 waist, even though my normal waist size is 34, and had to take the waist in 2 inches.

Good, durable trousers with an interesting colour combination.

I bought the Ludlow Trousers as part of a costume I was going to wear to Comic-Con. Never having been to one before I was a little vauge on what my look should be but being influenced by the First Doctor from the UK Sci-Fi show Doctor Who I was determined to abopt a Victorian/Edwardian look. Having "window shopped" the Historical Emporium on line for a while it was the first place I turned to for the products I wanted, and I was not dissapointed. The products I ordered are all top quality and the service just as much so. Can not reccomend or praise you high enough. Diolch

The fit is great, color excellent and priced fairly.

Outstanding quality and perfect fit (definitely order 1 size larger). Will be buying another pair or two in other colors. Shipping was very fast, received in less than a week. My husband and I are pleased, and highly recommend this source for all those steampunk items you can't or don't want to make yourself.

Great quality, authentic design

Great quality, authentic design

This is the second time I have ordered the Ferndale Striped Trousers due to their great look and reliable quality. While they are true to size as described on the website, it should be noted that because they are cotton, they do stretch once worn and heated up by the body - similar to how jeans will stretch out once worn several times. I highly recommend these durable trousers.

Great style and fit! And as usual, quick service from HE!

Do as other reviewers have suggested, and step up your pant size, just as I did. And don't forget to order your suspenders because if you think you can find button suspenders in your town as I thought I could, you will be coming back for a second order and paying additional shipping charges.

I was very pleased with the quality of the item, very well made for the price.

I love these trousers. Exactly as described, did need to cut and hem them, but that was expected. They fit well, and I am quite happy with this purchase. Highly recommendable Purchase.

Highly recommend!! I find them so comfortable on a day to day basis.

These are probably the best pair of pants I've ever owned, I wore a pair for over a year or so before the constant use and abuse wore them out. I was devastated when I could no longer wear them and the Emporium didn't have my size at the time, luckily they finally came back in stock recently and I couldn't be happier! They're comfortable, sit nice and high, and have plenty of room in the pockets. I love the stripes and how they look once properly hemmed, I definitely recommend 'em

I wear a 32 in Levis. I should have ordered a 34 No way to alter waist. Order large and tailor to fit.

Wow! These are great! Wore them w/ my Vigilante coat to Church & received lots of compliments. I'm one of those jack of all trades kinda guys. I can weld as well as stitch a seam so I hemmed them with a 1" rolled up cuff for snazzy-ness sakes. Also, ordered a size up like they said to do & what a perfect fit! Now I'm ditching jeans as work pants & ordering the canvas version of these. They're that comfortable & well made :)

I ordered these and within days it was at my doorstep. The pants fit around my boots perfectly with no bagginess and though the pants are longer in length, they never ride low on my boots or go below the heel., very comfortable and the stripes are well defined. Definitely happy with the purchase

These period trousers worked perfectly for the theater costume I wanted to create. The advice of ordering one size bigger than your normal pant size was most helpful and assured that the fit was ideal. I normally wear a 36 waist (35 really) but to be cautious I ordered the Ferndale pants in a size 38. The higher-riding waistline fit me perfectly and once my wife hemmed them, and suspenders were attached, I was totally satisfied with the look and authenticity. The website stated that size 38 was "special order" and could take 10 to 14 days to arrive. Imagine my surprise when they came in 4 days. Great service and great product.

I'm a little surprised I didn't buy these earlier. They're very nice on all counts. The pattern and color look sharp; bolder and more eye-catching than solids, but not so much that they're garish. The material is lightweight and comfortable. And they just look dang good. Frankly, I'm starting to think the matching vest is calling my name to go with these pants. In short: These are a good pick!

The size is true and they feel great on I would definitely buy them again. Highly recommended

Love these trousers! Colors are so rich!

These look great. Looks good with or without suspenders.

These trousers are a great choice for our upcoming production of "Newsies." They fit my actor well and he looks right in style for the historic period.

Let me begin by saying that I wear Historical Emporium clothing as part of my everyday wardrobe. Their products are reasonably priced and very well made and easily stand up to every day wear in my business attire rotation. I was looking for a lighter pair of pants for the warmer months and these are perfect! The material is sturdy, but very light weight and breathable. The pants are very comfortable. Why anyone would want to wear lower cut pants with a belt squeezing their waist is beyond me! The pattern is just as it appears in the photo. As with all Historical Emporium pants, they will need to be hemmed--but really, every gentleman should have a good tailor!

These are very comfortable, and what I like most about them is their length - it's hard to get off-the-shelf pants long enough for me. The material doesn't feel very robust, but then I'm not going to be working on the farm in them. It would be nice if they were part-lined, but that would put the price up. Let's say I think they're good value for what they are. Be careful about the size you order. The product notes point out that these are higher in the waist than most trousers and that you'll probably need to get a couple of sizes bigger than you're used to. Believe it!

This has the right look for my Victorian costume for community theatre. Be warned though, the legs are outrageously long and will need to be hemmed and probably cut. The style is thin legged which works well for the look. It is higher waisted as indicated, so go larger than your normal pants size in accordance with the sizing instructions. Know that the fabric, while looking great, is rather thin. Not as thin as a cheap Halloween costume, but certainly not a pair of pants to wear every day. Difficult to iron, so as nicer costume, good looking. As a casual wear, probably not.

My pants arrives quickly. They loog great and fit well. Thanks!

Great fabric, nice subtle stripe pattern.
