Size 28-30 Mill Farm Man’s Breeches

Pattern by: Mill Farm

Made in the USA

Men’s fall front breeches for the late colonial period have front pockets. This pattern has descriptions for optional waistband watch pocket, making the knee length breeches into trousers, a slight variation to make them military, and tabs for knee buckles. These breeches have a fit for 1770 to 1800, with a short rise, fitting the torso lower in the front than in the back. In The Providence Gazette of 1777, “Deserted from my Company of Artillery, in Col. Elliot’s Regiment . . .  an Irishman . . .  Had on . . .  Sky blue Broadcloth Breeches.”
