ITEM DESCRIPTION These knickerbockers are tailored from an authentic 1910s pattern once used for men’s cycling breeches, adapted with flattering lines for a female silhouette. Crafted in richly textured red wool tweed with blue and yellow check, and lined with cotton poplin featuring an Art Deco print, they combine vintage appeal with comfort and elegance. Features include generous pockets, a fishtail back, side adjusters, and knee bands with button detailing.
ITEM FEATURES Adapted Edwardian pattern knickerbockers Red wool tweed checkered fabric Generous side pockets Fishtail back and side adjusters One flap pocket at the back Knee bands with buttons for authentic closure
SIZING INFO The sizes are EU standard, that means they are closest to French sizing. Look at the waist measurements in the size chart (last picture) and take the size closest to your natural waist measurement. Ignore the outside leg because that is for standard trousers. The knee bands can be made to fit easily by moving the buttons.
MATERIAL AND CARE:
100% wool, with 100% cotton poplin pockets. Dry clean only. Wool is dirt repellent by nature. Remove stains gently with a cloth and a mild detergent. Hang it in the fresh air every once in a while. Every now and then bring it to the dry cleaners or carefully give it a soak in cold water with a wool detergent. Give it a short spin to tumble them and leave to dry. Be sure to pull it into shape before drying. Do not bleach, do not put in the dryer. Do not wash in warm water.
