Colonial Children's Knee Breeches

(85)

Colonial knee breeches, also known as knickers, were a popular style of trousers worn by men during the colonial and 18th century period in America. These breeches were typically made of wool or linen and were worn with stockings and buckled shoes. They were often paired with a waistcoat and coat as formal attire and were also worn by working-class men for everyday wear. They were worn just below the knee, which was the characteristic feature of this type of trousers.

Our modern version of colonial knee breeches are designed specifically for children and are made of durable polyester gabardine fabric. They feature elastic at both the waistband and bottom of the pant legs for a comfortable and adjustable fit. These knee breeches are perfect for historical reenactments, plays, and costumed events and come in a variety of colors and sizes. They are also easy to care for as they are machine washable.
