The fit was great, I'm always nervous when buying mail order. This is the second pair of trousers I have bought from Historical Emporium, I'm sure it won't be the last. I do my own hemming, by hand and it was very easy to measure, cut & sew. I highly recommend your outfits to anyone interested in an accurate 19th century wardrobe.

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!

I am very impressed by the construction of these trousers. Very well made. They are exactly what I had hoped they would be. For some reason, they were a little too large (I measured my waist carefully) but I had them altered and they fit like a glove, so comfortable I don't want to take them off. Definitely 5 stars!

My husband bought these for cowboy action shooting. They needed to be hemmed (as always) but they fit really well and he said they are comfortable to wear all day moving around. These have a skinnier fit than other styles.

The trousers are well made, the stitching is excellent. The advertised size 42 was a true 42. The crotch area is very comfortable. The fabric is smooth, substantial but not heavy or stiff.

These are great trousers. I’ve had positive experiences in the past and I’m sure I’ll have many more in the future.

These are great! Love the fit and the style. Thank you!

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

These trousers run pretty small. Ordered my size and had to send them back and get 2 sizes larger. Great service though.

These are great quality vintage pants. I recommend getting the suspendors; it has buttons ready for vintage suspenders. Pant bottoms are unhemmed.

Ordered one size larger that my normal size and they fit great. Nice dress weight material and seem to be well made.

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.

I’ve been waiting to get these for a long time, and I was very pleased they had my size. I just followed the sizing chart then made a simple hem and they were perfect for the occasion I wanted them for.

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.

FRONTIER CLASSICS is who made these pants. They sew their name tag on the OUTSIDE above the rear pocket. WHY would I buy a pair of pants from another time period and want to have a MODERN ADVERTIZING Patch showing????? The makers need to sew the patch on the INSIDE on the waist band where it doesn't show or have to be REMOVED before they can be worn and used in a recreation of the dress in that time period. They also run a little LARGE for the measurement. Otherwise, they appear to be well made and serviceable.

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.

I've been buying pants from this company for a couple of years now, and what they lack is good sizing control. I have had to return/donate so many pairs of brand new pants because some 34s fit more like a 32 and some fit me like they're a 35. Being that this is the only company I've seen hat makes pants like this, I'd appreciate if their sizing was more reliable because they have a nice product. This particular pant gets a 5 star review because it fits perfectly but this company's pants overall are a 3 star in my opinion just because of the headaches they've caused me in the past and recently. Order with caution.

This is my 4th pair of historical emporium trousers and my favourite. They are lighter in weight than the canvas trousers but still quite sturdy. I wish they would offer wabash/stifel stripes.

These are amazing and are way higher quality than I thought they would be

I really like these pants super comfortable my skin is super sensitive and these pants are no problem which really makes the difference for me. As for the fit perfect hangs really nice I have gotten multiple compliments while wearing them out regularly. I rolled the ankles but I might get the pants hemmed now because I know I like them a lot.

old west returns

Really Good

This is my new favorite outfit. I feel like a fancy banker or perhaps a mobster. The color is like a worn/distressed navy and the stipes add a dapper touch that accentuates my 6'3" super slim frame. The buttons match the stripes nicely. I feel as the fabric and pattern will wear well for many years. I'm a bit in between sizes, 42" chest, but the medium fits handsomely. 36" waist is my normal, stayed with 36" and they fit great. I do wish the best came in a tall option, but it covers my suspender tabs and waist strap on my trousers. I couldn't wear it with modern waisted pants, but again I'm 6'3" and 190 lbs. I have several vest and trouser sets from Historical Emporium, super excited to finally have something blue.

These pants are the bomb of durability! Wow. Seriously. Great and style as always! The colors are great! QUICK shipping. Thank YOU! I will search again if you carry these Humboldt trousers in other colors. If you don't, You definitely should! These badboys are gonna last!

These pants are super classy, and high quality. I purchased them for a Halloween costume, but will be wearing them on a regular basis. I love them.

I've never been disappointed with any Historical Emporium product....until I ordered these trousers. The striping / colouring is great....but the pants are really long waisted (reaching the bottom of ribcage) and, after washing, heavily wrinkled and stiff as canvas. They'll need more than a good pressing to look good ....maybe rolling over with a steam roller! I WILL STICK TO WAHMAKER AS MY TRIED AND TRUE BRAND OF PANTS. They didn't come in humboldt stripe so I ordered this brand. Bad move. Maybe the manufacturer could consider pre-washing the material (stone-washed?) using some kind of softening agent before cutting and assembling these pants. Having washed them, I will keep them, but cut and sew them into a vest instead. Too hard and stiff for my comfort level.

Picked these up for a costume. I'm a 32W/34L. The pants that arrived felt more of a 33W and 35L. I say this without having measured a thing. Ordinarily I would have sent them back for a smaller size, but the roominess allows me to make some killer dynamic poses. So it's all good!

Love the design, construction and durability of this product line.

These are excellent quality pants! Worth the money! And they're extra long so you can hem them to fit

Great pair of pants, definitely not cheap and extra long so they can be hemmed. Love them!!

these pants are very well made, from a sturdy jean-like material. They are more bluish in color than the pictures show and you WILL need hemming - Unless you are 7' tall. Mine came with flat buttons (although the pictures show some ornaments on them). Also I followed the instructions and bought one size up from my normal pants size and they are quite a bit loose. But you can adjust the strap in the back - there is quite a bit of room. Overall I am pleased with the purchase - it should work quite well with the Canvas work vest I bought as well.

I was thrilled when they arrived. Ordering one size larger, as suggested, the fit is perfect and very comfortable. These high quality, durable, denim-like trousers will wear a long time, and are just the thing to wear; whether you're laying track for a railroad or heading out for the Spring Quadrille at Mrs. Huffington's, the style is perfect. I use them for every day wear, and love them.

Very well made trousers. And very historically made. I am very happy with them.

I ride a lot for my job. The gear I get from Western Emporium holds up to my daily wear and tear! I buy old style riding/ cowboy attire from WE because the old timers designed clothes that fit the work! If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

I love them. I took early retirement and bought a couple quarter horses with my daughter. We ride 3 days a week, and these pants are the best, feel good, look good. They look great with my bib shirt when we ride in Asquith, sk.

Well made! This is my third pair ordered from you and the quality of workmanship and material is excellent. I do notice that no two pairs seem to fit the same way. Each of the three pairs I now have fit - but fit differently. The waist sizes are shown to be the same but they are different when I put them on. I will definitely buy more as I need to - and want to.

Need longer inseem not everyone is under 6ft tall would buy more if they were longer
