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.

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!

Their sizing info is on point! And it fits over cowboy boots pretty well!

These are just as described & are true to size! Thanks!

True to size in waist, the leg length however is excessively long, a quality seamstress can fix this, incredibly authentic, I'm an Irishman so fits perfect with my style.

We were very happy with these pants, it was historically accurate to the time period and looked good when it arrived

Great fit and construction! I am 6'5" and like my pants to sit on my actual waist (unlike modern pants of today) and these were just the ticket! Plenty long and adjustable, as well as warm. Nice deep pockets. Well worth the price!

No occasion thank you just wanted to try you guys for the first time. Everything is wonderful thanks & well-made. Definitely use you again although it would be rather nice for you add the cuff & allow buys a choice of inseam measurements- cheers!! Bob Hart - now I'm a right 'Toff'

Great quality fabric and construction.

really love these pants. The detail like the tightener in the back really add to the Victorian feel.I am kind of a public figure in a Victorian village, and a nod to the past without overdoing it is PERFECT for me. Hope to see more things become available.

Fit is true to size, excellent material weight, excellent craftsmanship, very good historical accuracy.

Love these pants ! Quality and fit ! Thank you

I have nothing bad to say about these trousers, they just weren't my taste. They're just too thick and heavy for my personal taste. There is an endless number of what I describe as 'little red dots' within the herringbone pattern. You can't see them in the photo on your web site, but when I saw them I was instantly turned off by them. I am a loyal, dedicated customer and have never before these trousers ever been disappointed, it's NOT "Historical Emporium", it's just specifically that pair of trousers, that's all, no big deal. You guys are still awesome! I asked for an exchange for the Brown 'Grady Striped" trousers that I've had my eye on. I'm hoping that I'll like them when they arrive. The "Sable, brushed cotton trousers, vest, and frock coat are all on my radar... stand by, ok?

Very nice pants.

Excellent fit! Bought the whole suit. Had the trousers hemmed and cuffed by a local tailor, very happy with it all. coat and vest are perfect fits. Good material, wish it would be just a slight bit thicker but overall pleased. Finally a nice suit!

These trousers are part of Historical Emporium's Grey Tweed herringbone collection. As recommended, choose one size larger than your usual waist size because of the way they fit. You definitely need a nice pair of button-on suspenders to go with these, and use them when you're getting them measured for hemming. I had mine done with cuffs. Beautiful, high quality trousers. I plan to buy more articles in this collection.

Be advised that these are unlined.

These pants are great for a historical wardrobe, they are comfortable and historically accurate. A bit baggy around the calves, which could maybe be tightened a bit, but that is a matter of taste.

These trousers are everything!!! Exactly what I was looking for. Perfect fit, I just had to have my tailor hem the length, as they all come with 36" inseam. Well worth the money for a perfectly tailored and unique pair of trousers.

The fabric stretches a bit which made them feel about 2 inches roomier in the waist than the same size Wahmaker, Livingston, Dorian, or Sable Trousers. These do itch a little bit but that goes with the fabric type. The extra lining helps with that. Stitches ripped open on the waist adjuster and outer seams of the front pockets after about 5-6 wears. Took me a couple minutes to fix with a sewing machine and could easily be done by hand. I really liked these after doing so. They'll last a good while. To me they're worth the price.

Perfect fit and most comfortable! Already a favorite item in my daily wardrobe. Unbeatable experience!

So this is part of my work wardrobe, very stylish and very professional looking.Quality is very good and the cloth is very durable.

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

more comfortable material. Would buy again. Bought for working at 1880 Town

great fit

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.

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...

Had to go up a couple of sizes. Very nice pants. Liked them so much I ordered a second pair.

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 !

With an infant time has a way of slipping past, suddenly I look at the calendar and A Gatsby Summer Afternoon was just a week away. I frantically searched and found these. The reviews seems great so I ordered. They got to me fast and when I opened the box I was overjoyed with the quality. they have a great selection of products and I have already been a return customer with equal satisfaction.

Love the color. Perfect fall addition to my wardrobe. Fit and quality are second to none. I love the fact that they come long so you can get the length cut perfectly so does my tailor! H.E. wins again. Love your products!!!

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.

quality look and feel, got a few compliments and am happy with these trousers

Item was exactly as described, decent material for the price and arrived super fast.

These trousers are Historical Emporium's usual high quality sewing and fabric.

Needed new stile

I love the pants. They have become my go to pants whenever I leave my house. Very comfortable to wear. I highly recommend them.

Our production of "Arsenic and Old Lace" called for a teddy. Roosevelt on safari look. The sizing was perfect, and the look authentic.

Look and feel great!!! gracias

the pants surprised me by being very light weight.. apparently i didn't fully read .. or they weren't described as such.... they do run smaller and rereading you need to measure your mid belly to get the right fit .. you cannot go by waist size and it does in fact say that in measuring for them SO pay attention..

I can't express just how pleased I am with all your products. I've tried looking at others, and nothing i've found has compared.

Much thinner than Classic Canvas Trousers - Brown but great anyway.

Realy nice trousers and the pale colour will work well with the Davenport coat

Pants are GREAT!! Well made and much more comfortable than jeans. The rep I spoke to recommended one size up from my jeans size and the fit was perfect. VERY pleased with product and overall experience. Will definitely buy more clothing in the near future.

They perfectly, and are very comfortable. I wear these for work and they are perfect for me. I will be reordering.

I absolutely have fallen in love with these Khaki trousers. I have integrated them into my daily wardrobe, and for my body type (medium/large - "Husky" build), suspenders and trousers like these are a perfect fit. I've paired these trousers with a brown leather shoes, a light brown tweed vest, and a light blue collared shirt that has a cream and white check pattern in it for a timeless, dapper look. I would love to immediately buy 3-4 more pairs of these and add them to my wardrobe, however my size (40) is out of stock, with no replenishment date set by the manufacturer at this time. You better believe I'll be checking back for these on a regular basis so that I can buy some. In the meantime, I'm considering going to a local tailor and having a couple of pairs of Chinos made that feature the high waist, and the suspender buttons that are featured in these trousers. These are absolutely fantastic.

I am always impressed by the quality of Historical Emporium's clothing. These trousers and are a nice weight, but not too heavy to be hot in warm temps. They fit as expected from the other pants from HE. I received many compliments on my outfit (bought the matching jacket as well) at our Mardi Gras ball. I am anxious to wear it Mardi Gras day! Thanks HE!

Great service, great clothes! Period authentic! Fit the part! Super durable, not just looks but wear this gear while working the property as well! Highly recommend.

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.

Good work pants

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.

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 product well made. Like the fit.
