Description
These black knee breeches are fashioned in the manner worn from the Renaissance through the 17th century, built for both comfort and function. They extend just below the knee, where they are laced firmly around the calves. This design allows for freedom of movement whether worn over tall stockings or tucked into sturdy boots. The waist is secured with a simple tie strap, offering an adjustable fit to suit the wearer. Made from a sturdy poly/cotton blend, these breeches hold up well to wear and are best cared for by hand washing or dry cleaning to maintain their shape and color.
Fun fact: In their time, knee breeches were favored over full-length trousers for practical reasons and were often paired with decorative stockings and buckled shoes, marking a man’s status and style in European society.
