Looking forward to wearing them in my golf Tournament

I needed something warm to bike to banks and other businesses. Biking out fits don't cut it. Paired with over the knee wool socks and a nice vest and overcoat, these knickers fit the bill. The wool content isn't as great as I'd hoped for, but the synthetic lining makes peddling comfortable.

The quality, style, fit are all spot on perfect

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 Gray Herringbone Tweed knickers are a perfect "second suit" along with the Olive Herringbone Tweed trousers I also purchased from the Emporium. Santa will get lots of "looks" this season!

Fishing in AK! Love them!

I have several Norfolk jackets in pure wool (some bespoke and some off the peg). I have always wanted a Norfolk suit but they're pretty uncommon now except if you go the bespoke route. When I saw Historical Emporium's offering I snapped it up in my size hoping that the 38 waist trousers would be right and it was just about perfect. I'd like a lightly higher rise but that's all personal preference and the pleats probably push us into 1920s or 1930s territory but I love pleats and am glad to have them even if they're not part of the Edwardian aesthetic the Norfolk suit is part of. As part of my Norfolk suit this will join my other Nofolks quite proudly. The button fly, as clearly described in the listing, is a great touch (though it can be finicky, and this is from someone who has a number of corduroys and smart trousers with button flies, but not so finicky that they're a drawback).

The wool knickers are super comfortable for hiking in the White Mountains, thin enough not to overheat you but the wool keeps warm if the weather turns foul (which it inevitably does). Having your lower legs free gives you additional mobility and ease of stride while keeping your knees covered for scrambling up and over rocky spots.

As usual, historical Emporium sells high quality clothing. The trousers are great, and are made with quality fabric. I highly recommend them

Wonderful material, great fit....

Great knickers, but i thought they had a zipper fly because the description wasn't real clear. Button fly is ok but challenging to do up at times.

Excellent quality. Very good fit.

the lining on the inside make it good if you are wool sensitive

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!!

Fit well and look great. I wore them with tall boots and it worked excellently. Well made. The button fly takes some getting used to. It a bit slower than a zipper.

I love these knickers and actually bought them to honor Payne Stewart who was an awesome American professional golfer and also a Christian! Thank you Historic Emporium for providing such a great choice and with a perfect fit.

The product arrived very quickly, in perfect condition, just what I thought it would be and worked perfectly!! Would buy again. Very true to size!

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.

Purchased for a 1920s themed birthday party murder mystery, matched with braces, argyle sweater and socks with a flat cap, it looked great. These were long enough to still bag a little under my 6'4" son's knees for the proper fit effect.

The fabric on these is fantastic and they fit as expected.

Bottond are tiresome. Need YKK zipper

I bought these to wear while riding my bicycle in cold weather. While they are perfect for an organized Tweed Ride event, I just prefer to be a comfortable non-racer bicyclist.

Purchased these knickers for a hobbit themed wedding in Duluth and people loved it! The pants were incredibly comfortable and breathable on a hot day considering they were wool, to my knowledge. I'll certainly be purchasing again when we build up a collection for Renaissance fests and oktoberfest!

Well made and designed. I may loosen the elastic at the knees as my gams are a bit bigger than the original fit model.

I was waiting for my size to come back in stock, and immediately ordered these. Very nice. Made of good tweed. I have bought many items from your store and will continue to in the future.

The quality, style, fit are all spot on perfect

These fit and look amazing! Will be buying more!

Ordered these for my son who was participating in the musical The Newsies, they arrived sooner than expected, were exactly what we were looking for. These were perfect for The Newsies. Thank you for the fast service, and the great product.

Having bought knickers in the past, the inexpensive models aren’t worth much and they use elastic at the legs and waist to fit everyone. These are just my size. Thanks.

The quality of the tweed knickers was awesome along with the fit. Perfect for the 1920's theme wedding!

Looking at the other reviews, I ordered 2 sizes large and they were still small. Also, the elastic cuffs are pretty tight and make extended wear a little rough.

Fit well! Wonderful fabric! Wonderful service!

it sort of has both a cargp pant feel with an elegant retro look i love it !

A 20s party and for golf. Very nice.

Great quality and awesome fit.

Good fit and quality material

I'm glad that I ordered them well in advance as I just received them on Saturday, May 29th almost a month late! So much for two day shipping with the USPS. They fit fine. Thanks, Dave Newcomb

The khaki twill is of good weight! The fit is comfortable! The service is excellent!

Bought these for my son to go along with the Baxter plus-fours. Just as good as he said.

I wear a size 38 pants. I wanted these to be a bit loose, so I went up one size to 40. They still fit as snug around the waist as normal 38s. If you want them to be loose, go up 2 sizes. I also want these in grey, but the only color they have is khaki. Still happy with purchase. I think I'll just try to dye them myself.

Although surprisingly light weight, these knickers have a good body and keep their shape. The elastic in the legs is not too tight, and doesn't get uncomfortable with long wear.

Just what the doctor ordered, these knickers are lightweight (read "cool"), well-constructed, and versatile. The stretch bands at the bottom of the pantlegs make it easy to position them just above the calf, and they stay put just where you want 'em.

1 star only because there in not a zero star option. The first time I wore these pants they ripped right next to the inseam from the crotch to the bottom on both sides. The seam did not split, rather the fabric actually tore away from the seam. They looked and felt great but need to be made of a more durable fabric. Customer service was great about a refund and I definitely don't want a replacement until I have assurance that a more durable fabric is being used.

I have a 1937 Raleigh Sport and it doesn't feel right riding in modern clothes-these are light, cool and comfortable and perfect for summer riding

Third time is a charm, these are what I needed and they fit! These knickers are light weight, perfect for Iowa in July, now I'm ready for our centennial event. Thank you, I will visit this site again.

The knickers look great and were a perfect fit, just the size I ordered. The problem: my boxers showed through in the sun! Since discovering this was the case, I've been more craeful to my choice in colors for my under garments. Aside from this snafu, no issues.
