Hi All and Happy New Year.
The pictured pants are made of a fine worsted wool, crisp and soft in texture and are Navy Blue. Pleated in front, extremely high waisted, the belt loops are thin and start at a very thin waist band and descend well down onto the body of the pants. The internal pockets & waistband lining are a natural undyed off white cotton / canvas with hand written notations inside, indicating measurements of this hand tailored item. The suspender buttons appear to be ivory, the zipper is small and simple, made of brass, by Waldes, pockets are all jetted & surged.
I know they are most likely 30s to 40s, but would like some sort of confirmation if you would, as well as maybe help in describing them in the way they may have been described when made. They are unusual because of there size. My model is over 6 feet tall and they fit him beautifully. Most mens items I have found from the 20s to 50s tend to be short.
If you would be so kind as to try and refine the date as well as offer ideas for descriptive words not only for describing them today but also for how they would have been described, in the 30s or 40s, when they were made.
Sorry for all of the lint, they are going to the eco dry cleaner today
Gracious as always,
