Love these trousers! They fit better than any pair of trousers I’ve ever owned. Great feel and weight & seem very durable. Using the sizing chart proved to be the difference. I’m a 32 in the waste, and per the sizing chart, I ordered a 34 as they are high-rise trousers. Perfect! The length must be tailored to fit your height .. they come 36” length. My tailor charged me $12 to fit them .. like stealing! Again, the best fit of any trousers I’ve ever owned. By the way, after placing my order, they arrived so fast that I had to duck! No Pony Express with these guys. I’ll be doing more shopping with Historical Emporium.

Very nice pants, love the fit and look. I originally ordered my usual pants size and they were too small (website does say to measure just below your belly button, generally a size or two bigger than your normal, my mistake). I returned for a larger size, quick, easy, no hassle exchange. Received replacement within 2 days, they fit great! Will be ordering more items soon.

Pant was cut way to tight in the legs and seat. You were out of 36 waist which is what I wear, so I ordered 38 waist. Waist was way to big but thigh and seat was way to small

Just need to shorten the trousers a couple of inches, other than that just great.

All Correct!

The pants are good quality, well finished, with some nice features. The fit was just right. Watch pocket, and the pocket details were definite nice touches.

I bought these for my costume this year and wanted something authentic. I found this and ordered it. Came in two days later and I tried it on but, the legs were pretty long. I'm 5"7 so I'm not that tall, for what it's worth the material and quality is top notch so I would definitely buy from them again. Just keep in mind that the legs will be long if you are on the short side so have someone tailor it or find a local tailor to make the adjustments.

Excellent style and fit. Did need to add spandex gussets as we were using them for a dance piece. Pants all held up well and looked as good after being worn for a week as they did when we first fit them.

These trousers fit my husband well. He wears them with Leather Buckle Suspenders – Black (which he LOVES!). They look good with his Victorian Formal Tailcoat - Black Wool. Thank you!

Well made trousers, good quality fabric, but the size we ordered was too big. We returned & re-ordered a smaller size.

I'm not happy with the product. At all! Just not what I had in mind. The fit is terrible, the material is substandard and the overall product is dreadful. The fact the organization sent me an invitation to review the product is a reminder to return the trousers for a refund. Yuck!

I get lots of complements when I wear the high waisted trousers I get from Historical Emporium. I have several different pairs. The Callahan dress trousers are particularly sharp when paired with the vest. Does require hemming due to length, but that is very affordable at a local tailor. The retro style allows me to be comfortable in just short and pants, but not too casual. Perfect.

Great quality and historical accuracy made for a splendid suit.

These are wonderful trousers. My husband would sleep in them if he could. They are that comfortable.

Excellent

High quality material and stitching. Fits true to size, so you don't have to order a size larger or smaller to get a good fit.

Absolutely pleased with these trousers. I had to hem and taper mine as I am quite thin and found the length a bit too long. Other than those small issues, I love them. Great material. In regard to customer service, I have nothing but good things to say. Very fast shipping and hassle free return.

Perfect fit and most comfortable! A favorite pillar of my daily wear wardrobe. Fast shipping and excellent customer service. Unbeatable shopping experience!

Historical Emporium is my 'go-to' company. I don't even bother looking anywhere else. I know what I will get every time- authentic period details, Perfectly well made, perfect fabrics, quick delivery--- Thank you!

These trousers are made of excellent material. They're very elegant in appearances but good for any occasion from a casual work day or a formal event. Comfortable and adjustable belt in back make sure for a comfortable waist line.

Great! Very comfortable! May shift entire wardrobe to these clothes.

These things fit true to size, be sure to measure!! :) they are sooo cool. Fit great and great quality. I ordered the matching vest and this outfit has more swag than kanye west!

fit was good, but upon the full dress review, it was realized that black was needed. nice trousers. I can see that more trousers from G'Emporium are in the future.

Nice and well made. You have to go by your high waist measurement to get proper fit. Husband's chest and high waist are 44 so that is the size I order. The fit is perfect. You will have to hem them or have it done by a seamstress. No biggie.

The pants fit great and after tailoring the inseam, it looks fantastic. High quality all around, soft, and comfortable. Great job

Fits perfectly. Purchased a size 36. If your tall like me, you're gonna love these steampunk pants. If you're shorter, plan on taking them to a tailor. But the quality is worth it!

Excellent Quality as usual

Great fabric, needs hemming, if you have a belly, have a tailor move the buttons over, Fits great, kinda slim,

I love where these pants sit on my waist, great color and good quality fabric. The seam in the crotch already split unfortunately easy fix I suppose since it was just the thread

I mention the Duke only because I was re-watching Rio Grande and saw this very style being worn by all the Army personnel. The quality is so good that I wish I could wear these everyday, much more sturdy even than my blue jeans I have. These trousers were purchased for my Airship Pirate Doctor, excellent for sailing the open airways.

Great pair of pants. Material not too heavy so they should work any time of year!

Very nice pants great fit!!

My husband is a volunteer interpreter at the Tinsley House at the Museum of the Rockies in Bozeman, Montana. Our dress is supposed to depict the 1890' s homesteading era These pants to are just perfect. He is demonstrating the weaving looms and needed a look a bit more tailored than others who work in the gardens or the blacksmith shop. Stop by and visit the Tinsley House and farm. (The museum also has a great dinosaur collection.)

I was hesitant in ordering these online. But I am so happy with the product. The material is absolutely wonderful. We ordered one size larger and the fit was perfect. Will definitely be shopping at your online store again.

Had to return the first pair, my body shape required a different size than the size chart suggested. No problem, replacement arrived very quickly. My seamstress custom fit them to me, she was quite impressed with material and construction. They do have a very long rise, but drape well and look good while wearing them.

Good quality pants. Good fit and perfect match for the Brown Suspenders. Very pleased with our order, Will post photo after the "event', as the pants, suspenders and puff tie are part of my outfit for our daughters wedding 22/2/2020

Title says it, the pants are AWESOME. Well made, durable, and beautiful. But be warned size up! If you have order historical emporium pants in the past and they fit got up an additional size for these.

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.

They are wonderful they are everything i wanted but they dont fit. I got a size 38 same style from this site and they are grey and they fit perfectly not sure why these are so much smaller. Luckly im on a weightloss journey so they will fit soon

I'm 6'2 and 360lbs, and these fit great, look great (and period correct), and did not shrink in the wash too much. If anything, I might have been able to go down a size (but they'll have plenty of room for winter long underwear). The only PITA was having to hem them, since they come ridiculously long. The fabric is very thick and durable.

The people who said order a couple of sizes up were a godsend. 2-4 sizes larger than you wear is a solid suggestion. I needed more than 2 sizes from my normal; I wear a 34-36 and needed a 40 in my case. Comfy pants, tho! Very comfy. Honestly wouldn't mind having a few pants that fit like these. Also when they tell you to plan on seeing a tailor to get these hemmed, they mean it. Plan to get these hemmed for your height. I had to return my first order to get the correct size, but the return was easy and free of any hassle. Would order again, but given the quality, I probably won't need to replace these any time soon.

Heavy and authentic fabric, well sewn and fitted. Dry clean only!

The only negative thing is they come in standard inseam length of 36”. Please offer other inseam sizes.

Really like the quality and the service

Pants were okay and fits well but the quality is pretty poor. Once again, not made in USA :( I would gladly pay more for better quality and made in USA.

High waisted, consider ordering a size up. Great quality

These trousers are perfect. The material is heavier than I was expecting, but it's still comfortable on the skin. I was concerned with it being too hot but it's incredibly breathable and cool, probably due to being cotton and not synthetic material. The pockets are enormous, the fit is comfortable, and all the buttons feel durable and secure.

These are very carefully made with excelent seams and sew lines . Obviously made by very attentive hands. Unless you are six foot 5 you will probably have to hem the legs. These are pretty snug for a 38 but they do sit high so if you have a belly go wider. Also they are thick material. Like a heavy dinim so expect them to be warm. Over all these are amazingly nice pants.

Oh for this higher waist style to be in fashion in the 21st century. A heavy fabric that makes for a great silhouette and great fit. Was concerned about weight of fabric on hot summer afternoons, but perfectly comfortable.

The absolute best quality and AMERICAN MADE.

Unbelievably comfortable. I highly recommend these.

Heavy. Good heavy fabric. Heavier than the canvas saddle pants. Picture, to me, looks green. Good smoke grey when in hand. Fit is accurate. Will need to be hemmed if you aren't a longshanks.

I've been quite happy with the product and service I've received from Historical Emporium over the years. The Patterson and Livingston trousers are no different. The fit is perfect using the measuring guide. Follow the instructions, though; these do not fit like modern pants. The quality is outstanding; if they're like previous trousers I've owned from Historical Emporium, I know they will last for many years of frequent wear. The brushed cotton is very unique; a soft peach-fuzz texture, but also durable like jeans. As for customer service, my orders have always shipped promptly. When I needed to exchange a product, it was taken care of quickly. When I've had questions, the customer support team replied to my emails promptly and professional. Overall, I highly recommend these trousers and Historical Emporium.

Just what I wanted

Very well made, Will require custom hemming, the pant legs are about 10 inches too long for me but I knew this before purchasing. Would and will buy again.

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.

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

I now own four pairs of these Classic Canvas Trousers. They are awesome, comfortable, and look great. I enjoy my costumes, and living history events. These pants have been a great addition to both, and sometimes I even ware them just because I can. I will most definitely buy them again!!

Description indicated 100%cotton. It truly is, and extremely heavy and durable. I bought a size up as suggested and it fit a bit loose. I did wash and dry and the looseness is gone. I’m quite surprised with this pant. I’ll wear it out for fun with a white shirt so it looks good and snappy. I intend to buy the other two colors. I’m happy to find a button fly to make them unique. Good go Historical Emporium!

Great quality & fast delivery.

I love these trousers, theyre very nice quality, and comfortable. Get your waist size and you’ll probably need to hem them. Maybe up one size if youre going to wear really thick shirts. Ive ordered two pairs of these now and my husband has 2 as well and the tweed ones (wish they had those in a 26 waist). These are pretty durable too. I would highly suggest these and other items from this brand as everything has been extremely satisfying.

I made the mistake of ordering a slightly smaller size, but that's on me, not on the pants or on the store. That being said, these feel like high-quality canvas pants. Like most other canvas clothing, it feels very, VERY, tough, and is typically stiff which is normal for canvas. I was surprised that the top button also had an extra button in the waist and there's also buttons for suspenders which is a really nice touch. Overall very nice pants.

Well made and sturdy

I have looked for pants like these for years. They provide the vintage old west look I have always loved. They are built to take the punishment and still look good. I wear the black when I am hunting here in Montana, and I wear the black or tan when going to town. I love the way they fit as well. I am short and heavy but can still find a good fit in these pants These are very comfortable and again cannot say enough good about their durability. The button system at the waist is a dual button to allow for good durability and the fly buttons are placed well. Just a great pair of pants.

These are awesome trousers & highly recommended have a great fit, With a very nice look. Well made, Strong & hang brilliantly on the body. I'm so happy with this purchase.

Very well-made pants. They have a good look and measure up in every way to their description. I am very dissatisfied with the Company’s returns policy. After following their measurement chart with all honesty, I ordered the recommended size. I had to return them and order the next size up. The cost of returning was close to $20 and another $7.95 for the re-order. Pretty costly mistake when following instructions. It will probably be quite a while if at all, that I order more products while this return policy is still in effect.

These trousers measure up to their advertisement. They have a classic look worn with or without suspenders. They seem to be made as sturdy as any modern day denim that I wear.

These are the best Canvas Trousers you will find. I have worn Historical Emporium's Canvas Work trousers for almost ten years and wear them every day. I will buy more and at 73 will probably not need many more. The material, construction, fit, and finish will make you proud to be wearing them.

Great pants, durable, and an excellent fit! Definitely purchasing others when they come back in stock.

Good quality heavy duty pants. I ordered a size too big but they fit a friend of mine perfectly so he got them and loves them and wants to order more.

My husband was happy to receive them.

I absolutely LOVE to wear these. They are fantastic, and if you do not have them you must PURCHASE THEM IMMEDIATELY! The canvas material is strong but there is plenty of space for your legs. However, these pants sit higher than your waist. Be sure to order a size up for a perfect fit. You may also need to have them hemmed or have to roll up the pant legs. But overall, this is an amazing pair of trousers.

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!
