This is a sewing pattern for men´s walking trousers worn from 1870 to 1910.

This sewing pattern is based on a pattern from “The cutters practical guide” from 1893 with a grown-on waistband, the trousers are intended to be worn with buttoned suspenders.

Depending on the fabric you can make different types of trousers. Morning Trousers from striped fabric, evening trosers from fine black wool fabrics, or trousers for every day use matching with waistcoat and jacket as a "ditto" suit.

This instruction shows the classic tailoring of men´s trousers. All interfacing can be replaced by fusible as desired and modern working can be chosen.

A seam allowance of 5/8" (1,5cm) is included.

The instruction explains the historical sewing process as accuratly as possible, but the pattern is also suitable for historical cosplay or steampunk costumes.
