THICK PANTS
These are really good canvas, and are my second pair. The first were size 32 in another color. One thing to know is this color runs small. The 32” brown were like man leggings that don’t bend. I’m not overweight and I was muffining out the top. So sold that pair to a friend who is made of popsicle sticks and got myself 34”. Those are perfect!! So order a size up if you eat food.

Very well made
Very well made trousers. Unfortunately, I was trying to integrate them into my wardrobe and, due to the inseam and my wearing the new slimmer profile styles, I couldn't abide the mass of material at the crotch level. I understand that the cut of these is authentic. Wish there were someone making a slimmer version with a more tapered leg.

Comfortable, lightweight
I ordered these for work pants (farm, woodworking, blacksmithing). They are very comfortable. The height of the waist is not a traditional high waist, but is a really good medium-height for me. The fabric is a nice brushed hard-wearing twill, but is definitely even lighter weight than I was expecting. That's okay, they'll be good summer pants, but it was a surprise.

Didn't Fit
The Trousers didn't fit, when ordering I didn't realize the cut of the Trouser was to be worn high. I have a 42 waist at my belly button, but order a 38 waist because I wear my jeans at my hips. This was my mistake and not the Historical Emporium's. When ordering measure your belly button waist not your hips.

Quality Pants
I received my order within a week and the pants were exactly as described. They are made of heavy fabric and are quality throughout. Sizing was spot on. I bought them for Cowboy Action Shooting and a period correct for 1880-1890 dress. A durable, well fitting addition to my cowboy outfit.

Great warm weather pants
I bought this to wear in warmer weather. The fabric is thinner, but still rugged. I shortened the legs and had my tailor use the material to make a pocket on the left hip cheek to match the patch pocket on the right cheek. I've learned the value of having more pockets, and since I wear a long rifle coat with these pants, it doesn't matter if historically accurate or not; it just makes sense to have 4 pockets. The pants fit well and look good; not overly baggy but not rock-n-roll tight either. The fabric feels like its treated for repellency; they look good with the tuxedo shirt and vest. If you're going for the "Tombstone Marshall" look, these will work well.

size matters
I like the way these pant fit, but I ordered them in size 40 waist think that they would be loose fitting like my Wranglers... I think I may have to send them back to trade for a 42" waist size...

Be wary of the fit
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.

This was a perfect addition to my new Victorian Santa suit. My niece (costume designer for a big Vegas show) made me a new vest and coat - but we needed the perfect late 19th century pants. The Olive Herringbone Tweed trousers make the ensemble perfect.

My grandmother owed me a BDay present from last year, so she agreed to get this for me, all she needed to do was hem the length a bit so they fit properly. Now all I need is a vest, proper shoes, and one more hat for the outfit to be complete, it makes for great ranch work clothing. Thank you guys so much!

LOVE THEM!!!!!
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!!

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.

Dressing the Part
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.

Can't believe this style ever fell out of fashion, so comfortable, and smart looking. I feel like a human being when I wear these pants. Perfect fit, suspenders buttons appear to be of a quality that will last, same for all the seams. Couldn't be more satisfied.

Perfect pants!
We attend the Great Dickens Faire in the San Francisco Bay area every year since 2007, with the exception of, well you know, Covid. And my husband had decided that he would like a new pair of pants so he could change up his regular outfit. Coincidentally, doing some googling, we found Historical Emporium. Even more of a coincidence it was about 45 minutes from where we currently were, in the bay area. So we called to see if we could by chance get these pants by picking them up. And the answer was yes. The most amazing customer service I think we have ever had. Not only did they take the time to make sure that this was the right pair of pants. But I think they even stayed a little bit past lunch. They should businesses the art of customer relationships. Thank you so much the pants are perfect. !!

I bought these pants for Halloween and I love them. I had to get them altered around the crotch and the length of the pants but in all honesty I liked that they only go based off of your waist size because it makes them much more customizable for your needs.

These pants fit very well and look great. I am especially impressed with the quality of these. I also like the manufacturer did not put their maker tag on the outside of the garment. The waist size I ordered is 38, although I normally wear 35-36. Packaging and service were excellent.

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.

Nice quality pants. Although all their pants apparently need to be hemmed (hence the loss of one star) they are of such nice quality I am considering buying more (now that I know my proper size and hopefully don't have to depend on their customer service replying to my email).

Great pair of saddle pants.
I am 6'6", 250lbs. The size I wear is 38x38. I ordered the 40x36 and the waist was right on and the length fits perfect. Who would of thought these pants would fit since my length is 38. The material is of good quality. I am going to buy me another pair.

I re-enact and also am heavy into the Steampunk scene, I really needed a new set of britches, my wife found your web site and we ordered the Tan/Black Olson Saddle Pants. They arrived in less time than I had expected and the quality is a whole lot better then I expected! I used to buy another brand, I won't say the name but I will not cry over the difference (wah! ;) Anyway, thank you for a rugged and stylish product! These will wear like iron and look good for years to come... did I mention they are very comfortable? Thank you again, I will be ordering from Historical Emporium from now on!

I bought these for riding my motorcycle, once I had them tailored for my length. I had lots of left over material, so my tailor made me leg pockets for my wallet and glasses, now I have the ultimate riding pants, outstanding in the comfort level, in the overall fit bang on, with braces the comfort level is upped and above what you want. Did a 9 hour ride on the weekend from inland to the lakes, a lot of people had to stop and put their chaps on because their legs got cold, these pants held off the cold and then even were comfortable when we were into the heat. My pants for my month long bike ride.....thanks so much.....
