In addition to being a popular choice for trousers during the 1700s, breeches were also worn by men as part of their formal and casual attire. They were often referred to as colonial knickers, as they covered the body from the waist down to the knee.
These Men’s Polyester Gaberdine knee breeches are a modern take on this historical style of clothing. They include features such as two side pockets and an adjustable elastic waistband for a comfortable fit, and elastic at the bottom of both legs for adjustability.
It is important to note that these breeches were worn by all colonial men, including famous figures such as the Founding Fathers, Alexander Hamilton, and Thomas Jefferson. A symbol of America's growth and evolution in its early years, and a nod to the country's rich history.
They can be paired with a wide selection of colonial clothing parts and accessories to create a personalized colonial period outfit, perfect for historical reenactments, theater productions, or any other occasions where you want to channel a touch of colonial style.
