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.

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.

Think of these as heavy blue jeans as far as when and where you wear them. Definitely winter weight.

I enjoy how historical these trousers are, along with their rugged style. Putting on a union suit, these pants, suspenders, and boots make you look like you came straight from the American Frontier. The waist is high, the pants look rugged and give a unique aesthetic on the body compared to modern jeans; the length of the pants are great for putting them over boots or tucking the pants into your boots; the waist size (30 I ordered) fits me just right and I have a small waist, and plus there is an adjustable belt on the back of the pants. The suspenders I have with the slits went right through the buttons on the pants very smoothly. These canvas pants feel very comfortable, and I noticed I don't have to constantly fix my tucked-in shirt coming out compared to wearing normal jeans with a tucked-in shirt thanks to the high waist, suspenders, and little bit of stomach room around the pants that keep the shirt where it is supposed to be when I choose to wear a long-sleeved shirt with these pants. The pants, at least mine, are not real heavy, yet they are durable. I highly recommend wearing a duster coat and tall, tucked in boots with these pants and you will look incredible.

Keeping the old west alive. Period correct, fits great and looks good.

Event in Edgewood, NM, very happy with the quality and size!

I bought these pants as part of my 1880's costume. They look and feel authentic and seem very well made. They do have to be professionally altered to length (they all come in 36" length), but otherwise they're amazing.

Had to get them hemmed but other than that love how thick they are and the way they fit me. It's hard finding clothes for a tall slender young man

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!!

These seemed to run a slightly thinner fit through the legs than the cotton and canvas pants, this is fine for me. The pants are a very nice gray, lighter than most slate grays, it seems to pair well with almost any color of shirt. The pants are a quality feeling wool mix, great winter pants. The buttons are quite a bit larger than the metal style trouser Historical Emporium sells, and unfortunately I'll have to replace them for my suspenders. Overall, these are some pretty good trousers, as with everything I have bought from HE it's a well made garment and I am thoroughly impressed.

Fit right out of the box. Well constructed, material has a good weight without being too heavy. Seem very durable. Looking forward to wearing them at my next living history event. Service was great; fast shipping and right the first time. This is not my first purchase from the Emporium, and I expect there will be more.

I have more than one pair of trousers from you guys. I had the gray trousers hemmed, but I haven't had a chance to wear them yet. Even though I haven't worn them yet, I LOVE them, just as much as I love anything else I've bought from you! THANK YOU, Historical/Gentlemen's Emporium, for even existing!

Very, very high waist, which I like. Very long legs, but easy to hem. Heavy fabric, good for outdoors use.

Another great pair of pants that my son loves. Now he is saving up to buy the matching vest.

I have a couple pairs of these pants in different colors. They work well for a casual look especially, but you can dress them up with a "Sack Coat" and vest if you want. Comfortable as well!

Bought some sable brushed cotton trousers in brown, but brown and black do not a complete wardrobe make. Comfortable, well constructed, a bit heavy weight, nice finish. Really, nothing not to like.

My trousers arrived quickly, and upon inspect showed excellent quality of construction and material. My only regret is that I misjudged the measurement of the waist, not knowing exactly how high it was cut. I should have added three inches, not two. However, they will fit, albeit a bit snugly, and they will look great.

I got these pants because I liked the very similar Sable pants and wanted something "dressier." They're extremely good-quality, and pair very nicely with the Livingston vest or really any outfit. Gives it a nice offset. Note, though, that until you first dry-clean them, they tend to pick up hairs and lint.

I just love all my trousers from gentleman emporium, have been riding on horseback for many many miles the last years, and they are still in one peace ;-) But this is for a victorian summer in town ;-)

These trousers fit well (follow the sizing guide). The cloth is durable but comfortable, and, with the right accessories, they are very fashionable. Great buy.

Excellent product. This is my first buy in historical clothing and at this site. They answered questions about my sizing over the phone, and it arrived in the time window they projected. Great quality, very professional and sturdy. They look great. I measured my waist at belly-button and was surprised it was almost 38 inches(Usually a 34" pants is roomy on me), so I got a size 36 and its perfect. Snug at the waist, plenty of room on the legs for bending, etc. They come extra long, so be prepared to have to take up some, but that leaves room for a cuff if that's your thing.

I'm 5"3 the 28 inch inseam fits perfect not short but not over long.I will say measure above your belly button I normally wear a 12 but these are high waisted I got a 16 and I shrunk them a bit and there perfect. I do wish they made these in chestnut and dark blue like the mens I would buy a lot more if they did.

Completed my Cowboy Fast Draw outfit. I can move well in them, and they are comfortable.

Using for gun fighter rein-actor at a museum

There were a little smaller than the usual size, but other than that, it's great!

Dinner date

I'm creating a mid-1800s clergy outfit and these trousers, with the matching coat (and suspenders) arrived quickly and, though the material is thicker than I would like, they fit as sized and only needing to shorthen the sleeve length and trouser hem. Amen :-)

I was impressed how heavy the fabric is and how well made. Nice fit and the trousers looked awesome.

than the Fall-front pants but still had to send back. Sent back for a refund.

No complaints. Very unique styling.

I wear a 38" normal waist, measured where they say to and ordered the 42". It was a perfect fit, Heavy duty and made well. They are dry clean only but to loosen them up I put them in the dryer with a damp towel on a no heat setting for a bit. They are long and will need to be altered.

I can't express enough how the quality of these trousers are impeccable! Don't hesitate....purchase them immediately! Bravo to this company!

They are pretty impressive and the fit is good. Note that they are very long so you will probably have to hem them.

These are a good item. Feels like cotton denim. Nice thick feel to them and true to the size chart.

I ordered this and several other items for my daughter's upcoming wedding. The entire package arrived several days earlier than expected, and I was skeptical of the purchase, but once receiving all the items I realized the material quality was high the fit was perfect and the price was great. I could not have bought a suit for the same price. I am amazed at the outstanding customer service from historical Emporium. I even had to change my pants size day after I ordered and it was corrected and I received the proper fit.

I would have liked an option that is a staright leg to fit OVER boots with same look and cotton material.

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.

Outstanding quality. Fits true to size. Love the color and stripes. My third pair of trousers from this company. They have all held up very well.

My favorite part about these pants is the suspender buttons positioned higher up on the back with a tightening strap to make that clean fit around the waist. They feel great to move around in too.

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.

The trousers are well made. You need to have the inseam altered for your length. Also the Crotch needs to be brought up as it hangs to low. But it’s worth it for a pair of quality Trousers.

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.

They felt so comfortable and fit so well and top quality matrial

I put my confidence in the sizing guide on your web site and was not disappointed. The trousers fit perfectly.

My second pair of this general style and once you get used to su as renders, nit having a belt is actually nice for regular wear. I wish the front suspender buttons were a little closer to the front but solved this by buying and installing a third on the opposite side of the button closest to the front fly in each side which makes the suspenders come down my chest at a better location. Denim buttons were easy to find and a near perfect match so not hard to do. Otherwise, nice trousers!

Daily work attire.

These are built to last forever. I'm truly impressed by the quality of product. I look forward to many years of use

I absolutely love the pants and hope they last! Slick design, deep pockets and very comfortable.

Needed these for a miner look, they were perfect!

Got these to add some historic flare for when I am busking or performing with my banjo. They are great starter piece for a late 19th - early 20th century outfit. They run a tad small in the bigger sizes so pay attention to the advise to buy a bigger than you think.

A linen work shirt needs some canvas work trousers to complete the look. Great fit.

I bought these for my son's Halloween costume, and they came exactly as advertised. With some alterations (they only come in 36" length for some reason), they were perfect for his RDR2 Arthur Morgan costume.

Legs way too long but very good quality

My spouse and I like the clothing style of the 1800's and your clothing line is well made and fits well.

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.

A theater production set in 1890s

Did not like fit.

I have been rebuilding my wardrobe and wanted something unique. The photograph of these trousers does not do them justice! I am extremely happy with the feel and look of the material. Being short however, I had to take them in to be shortened. Other than that, I love these trousers. I will be making more purchases soon.

We will be attending the Avalon Ball in May. I needed to find a pair of period trousers. I didn't think I was going to find what I wanted but when I found your website I found the perfect pair. They are well made and look like they just came out of the 30's and 40's

My husband loves his new trousers. They are very heavy and good quality, and are so fancy!

They look great and fit great around the waist, but I won't really be able to tell till I get them back from the tailors that are hemming them in a week and a half and can actually wear them in public. And are there no laundry directions sewed on the pants themselves? Editor's note: The care tag is inside the right leg seam.
